Dark Desire

This tutorial was written by me on April 27, 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 a gorgeous PTU mega-kit and Cluster Frames from Tanya at Scraps by jOeswife called "Gothic Romance".  Visit her blog to find out how to purchase this kit and frames.
