Make bottom mask layer active and apply Alien Skin Eye Candy 6: Texture - Texture Noise with the following settings.


Don't have Eye Candy 6 - Texture Noise is available in earlier version, so try those.
(If you want to animate your tag, duplicate this mask layer twice for a total of 3, then apply the Texture Noise filter to each layer, but hit the random seed button each time.)
Add your copyright information and name and save your tag.  You're done!!!!
 
Further instructions for animating:
Close 2 of of the 3 Texture Noise layers, copy and paste into Animation Shop.  Back to PSP close the open Texture Noise layer, and open the next one, hit Ctrl, Shift C then back to Animation Shop and paste as new layer after current one.  Back to PSP and do the same with the 3rd Texture Noise layer. Select All, Animation, Frame Properties and change to 25.  Save your image.
Thanks for trying my tut
