Any resemblance to any other tutorial is coincidental.
Supplies I Used:
PSP – I used 2020 but any version will do
Tubes of Choice I used
Yuriko Shirou 21-2, 21-2, 21-3
Font of Choice I used Versal
Plugins Used: Eye Candy 4000,Xero- Porcelain, Radiance, Bad Dream

**Abbreviations I use**
DS- Drop Shadow
LP-Layer Palette

Open a new canvas 700x700

Grab your rectangle tool and make a tall rectangle
convert to raster layer and center in canvas
rename Center Rect
Make another one to the left and convert to raster layer
rename Left Rect
Duplicate your Left Rect
Image-Mirror Horizontal and rename Right Rect

Pick 3 tubes of choice or Bundle of choice (from CDO if you have any!)
I am using ScrapWDD_YurikoShirou-Package-21

Drag Paper 6 onto your canvas underneath your Center Rect
RS 65%
grab your magic wand and select inside your Center Rect
Selections-Modify Expand by 3
Selections-Invert
activate your Paper 6 and hit delete

Do that step again for your next 2 rectangles
using different Papers
for the left rect I am using Paper 1
for the right rect I am using Paper 5

Drag Yuriko Shirou 21-1 (the JPG version) onto your canvas below your left rect
align where you would like
activate left rect
magic wand, select inside left rect
Selections-Modify expand by 3
selections-Invert
activate your tube layer and hit delete

Now do that step again for your center and right rectangles
*NOTE*
the center rectangle I did use the PSD tube 21-2 so it would fit in the rect
I resized it to 80% 
The right rect I used the JPG version 21-3
