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 Eos Sparks. You need a license to use her tubes. You can buy this tube at The PSP Project

I am using the PTU kit Fish Tale by Gimptastic Scraps . This kit is exclusive to The PSP Project

Font is 2Peas Sailboat. You can find it HERE
