Emotions


Supplies Needed

1 tube of choice - I'm using the awesome artwork of Lisa Cree which you can be purchased from her store, PSP Tube Stop.  You must have a license touse.

Font of choice - I'm using Burton’s Nightmare here

Vix Mask 451 here

Millie’s template 109 here

“If You Love Something” is a tagger size sampler scrap kit created by Jessica of Gothic Inspirations and can be downloaded from her blog here.  Thank you so much Jess for a fantastic sampler!!
