Blue Dreams

Supplies

1 tube of choice – I used the beautiful artwork of Meg Baker which can be purchased from PSP TubeStop.  You just have a license to use.  The butterflies used in this tutorial came with the tube.

Font of choice - I used Clipper Script here

Monti Circular Mask here

“Blue Dream” is a FTU tagger size scrap kit created by Cindy of Puddicat Creations and can be downloaded from her blog here.
