Supplies Needed
1 tube of choice – I
used the wonderful artwork of Mitzi Suto-Wiuff which can be purchased from PSPTube Stop. You must have a license to use.
This template
shows on her blog as Template 28, but when downloaded
It will show up in a folder that says Template 107
and the template is named the same as well.
“Pastel” is a FTU tagger size scrap kit
created by Digi Mania Scraps and can be downloaded from her blog here. Please leave a thank you after
downloading. Kind, appreciative words go
a long way.
This tutorial was
written assuming you have working knowledge of PSP.
