I done this tut in PSPX1 but it can be done
with any version of PSP. This is an easy tutorial
with not much to do. No outside filters used

You will need:

A tube - I used one of Pittis Grafik's adorable tubes.
You can get them HERE
but any tube will do.
Scrap kit called 'Southern Breeze' from HoresePlaysPasture
