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 Gaetano Di Falco. You need a license to use his tubes. You can buy this tube at CDO

I am using the PTU kit Trapped In Autumn Bundle Valoisa by Manipulated by Magik . This kit comes as a bundle at Mystical Scraps that comes with a bonus kit, but you can also buy just this kit at PFD
