Haunted Memories

This tutorial was written by me on April 28, 2010 using PSP 9.  All my tutorials assume you have some working knowledge of PSP and/or Animation Shop.

Supplies:

 

Tube of choice - I'm using the wicked art of Unholy Vault Designs.  You can purchase tubes/license at MyPSPTubes.

 

Scrap Kit - I'm using an awesome PTU kit from Angel's Designz called " Haunted Memories".  You can purchase this awesome kit here at Underground Scraps.

Mask of Choice

Font of choice - I'm using Killigraphy which you can find here.

 

To begin open mask and tube in PSP - minimize for now
