 We were tasked with using shapes to make a tag in the CDO Diamond Group for a monthly contest. So I made this template and thought I would share it with everyone. Below is the preview. It is in PSD format. If you should use in your tutorials please link back to my blog. Thanks! Enjoy and have fun with the template!
