Let's Begin:

Open a new image 600 x 250

Select 1 or 2 colors that are not in your tube - but compliment your tube. If your tube comes with the full artwork - you may want to choose something from that.

NOTE: You can choose 1 color - 2 shades of that color - OR - 2 colors that work well together.

Foreground to light/medium - background to medium dark

Fill canvas with your f/g color

Add a new layer - fill with b/g color

Adjust - Brightness and Contrast

NOTE: You may need to adjust the contrast setting depending on your color choice - or even omit this step

Layer - Merge down.

Now select 1 or 2 colors from your tube - following the same instructions as before

Add a new layer

Follow the above steps starting at the first fill and ending with the merging of the two layers (make sure you only merge the last 2 layers you have been working on and not the first completed layer)

Copy and paste your tube - position

Now choose which layer you want as your top layer depending on what you feel looks best with the tube.

Once you have decided this - label the bottom one BG 2 and the top one BG 1

Working on BG 1

Selection tool - set to rectangle - custom selection
