Supplies
1 tube of choice - I used the wonderful artwork of PinUpToons which can be purchased from CDO. You must have a license to use.
Font of choice - I used Bubble 1 here. Just some FYI, when I downloaded this font it was a Binery file. I had to run as administrator and it was automatically installed into my PSP program. Just thought I’d let you know because downloading from that site never used to be like that.
Weescotlass Mask 208 here
Animation Shop
Snow which I supply here. The snow is to be used only for this tutorial. If you would like to use it for anything else please ask.
Plug Ins:
Mura’s Meister - Cloud
Eyecandy 5 - Nature: Snowdrift
“A Christmas Wish” is a tagger size scrap kit created by Shelle of Shellez Creations. This portion is part of a huge mega collab to help a fellow designer in her time of need. It can be purchased from TKO Scraps. You can visit Shelle’s blog here.
Thank you Shelle for your fantastic portion.
