FTU Want Your Oil Checked

This tut was written August 5th, 2018 for those with a basic knowledge of psp.

I am using the awesome artwork of Keith Garvey

The tube is "Quart Low" 

You need a license to use this tube, do not use without a license.

You can find this tube at his store  HERE
Once his store closes not sure where you will be able to buy his tubes again.

I used PSPX...but any of them should work.

Add any other elements that you would like, make it your own.

Once happy with your tag, close off any background used, 

crop your tag to make sure no shadows or anything on the edges, merge visible.
Resize your tag first, then add your copyright and name.

That's it
