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 Joan Pelaez.  You need a license to use this tube. You can buy this tube at CDO

I am using the PTU Kit IB Joan Pelaez 34-3 by Gimptastic Scraps . This kit is exclusive to CDO
