Plugins
Xenofex Constellation

The tube I used White Stuff is by Majestik Art, you can purchase this tube from MTA here

The name of my font is Night Sky
I used size 48 for my text & size 60 for my name



Open new transparent canvas 700x700, we will resize later

Paste your tube as a new layer
Floodfill with a color from your tube
Add an inner bevel
Duplicate 2 times
Apply xenofex constellation with these settings


Repeat on other 2 layers clicking on the random seed button each time

If you're using a different tube you'll need to floodfill the frame with a color, gradient or pattern before adding the drop shadow

I resized just a tad bit to 95%

Activate your rectangle shape tool
Change your foreground to a lighter shade of your first color
Background null
Width 15
Draw a frame around your tube
Add an inner bevel & drop shadow

Resize all layers to 70%

Add your text, name & © info
