21. Add a new raster layer named 'tape'. Zoom in enough to really see what you are doing (if you have a mouse with a middle wheel button, just roll the wheel up and down to zoom in and out ).

23. Make your forground color black, and add a dot in the middle of the tape dispenser.



24. Apply an inner bevel to the dot.

27. Draw a dark grey line for the tape. Merge visible layers if you need to, (with all layers visible).
