Today I have a tutorial for a tag I made using Amy Marie's kit Strawberry Dreams.  I have joined her CT team on a trial basis to see if I can handle writing tutorials.  Please be patient as I  am REALLY rusty in writing tutorials.

This tutorial was written by me, on May 20, 2013.  These ideas are mine and any likeness is just a coincidence.

You must have a working knowledge of PSP.  I use PSP 9 but other versions should work as well.  Remember to save often!

Today I am using the Artwork of Ellie Milk which you must have a license to use.  You can obtain this license at PFD 

I am using the PTU scrapkit by Amy Marie called  Strawberry Dreams.  You can purchase this kit at PFD or SATC

You will need: Mask of choice and Plugin Xero-Porcelain
