Easy Funkadelic Pattern
I was playing around with my PSP filters and I came up with this funky-looking pattern. It's really easy to make; you just need a pattern to start with.

Choose a pattern that you have with texture and color. I tried this technique on some of the patterns that I have loaded into my PSP and they worked fine except for one pattern that was geometric, so I don't recommend using geometric patterns. Random patterns work best.
Open PSP. Open your background/pattern/tile in PSP. Create a new image whatever size you like.
Copy the pattern. On the working canvas, select all. Paste the pattern into the selection. Select None.
Apply Effects>Distortion Effects>Wave with these settings (Horizontal Amplitude: 23, Horizontal Wavelength: 59, Vertical Amplitude: 64, Vertical Wavelength: 90, Edge mode=Wrap).
Apply Effects>Artistic Effects>Colored Foil with these settings (Blur: 95, Detail: 72, color=black or a dark color, angle=132).
Apply Colored Foil again.
The pattern that I used for my pattern example above came loaded into my PSP8 Patterns; it's called Flowers. I didn't paste it into a selection; I flood filled the canvas layer before applying the wave and colored foil filters. But I have also used smaller patterns that I have pasted into the canvas-sized selection and the result is nearly the same. The only thing that changes is the colors and swirls.
After I installed my PSP, I found a layered PSP file that I had saved probably four years ago that included only a few notes, and I was able to translate my notes and work my way back into figuring out how I made this. It all started with the funkadelic pattern. The effect here reminds me of fire opals. A fire opal is a really pretty stone; look it up if you don't know what they look like. The font I used is AngelicaCP.

Updated 2021: When I created my tag above, I had an older monitor that was set quite dark, so many of the tags that I created were more "bland" than I had intended. When I saw this tag on my new (bright) monitor I was horrified LOL. It looked so pretty on my old monitor, so I tried to find a way to modify it to appear as I had intended. I used the PSP filter called Curves to adjust the brightness/contrast, and now it has that deep richness that I was going for.

Played around with your directions and came up with this.
Tried a few effects but I felt it took away from the color. Used pspx2

Yes, using filters on the pattern will definitely change it.
I used SuperBladePro (moldy candy; blend mode=exclusion) on mine
Thanks for showing your results.
What is the name font that you used? I like it. |

My SBP got uninstalled along with my PSP, so I had to reinstall it.
To install it, I think I just put SBP in my plugins folder.
It didn`t work at first until I added those DLLs into my system folders. |

I found another old file of mine with some screenshots of a tag, and I finally figured out what I did to create the bevel and colorization on the text. I have flood filled this text with the funkadelic tile and changed the blend mode to hue. I also created an animated version and posted it here. The font I`ve used is Jive.  |

Awesome, Gran, thanks for posting your results!  I took the funkadelic tile and applied some distortion effects and a glass setting (from a different tag of mine) and then used it to fill my text. The goldish outline was made following my Gold Bling Text tutorial. And then I added some noise for a shimmer effect. The font that I used is Kingsthings Slipperylip.
