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 Atilla.  

 

**PLEASE NOTE: You DO NOT need a special license for the tube that's included in the kit. If you use the tubes in your creations, please check the TOU for the tube and use the copyright information supplied!
