This tutorial was written by me. Any resemblance to any other tutorial is pure coincidence. Please DO NOT claim this tutorial as your own. It was written in PSP 9 but should be compatible with any version of PSP.

I am using the artwork of Ellie_Milk. You need a license to use her tubes. This tube is and exclusive at PFD


I am using the FTU kit Thinking of Spring by Gimptastic Scraps this kit is part of the Fantastically Free Blog Train
