Old Time Christmas PTU Tutorial

This tutorial was written by me. Any resemblance to any other tutorial is pure coincidence. Please DO NOT claim this tutorial as your own. It was written in PSP 9 but should be compatible with any version of PSP.

I am using the artwork of Keith Garvey. You need a license to use his tubes. I purchased this tube while he was at MPT. You can buy his work at his store found HERE

I am using the PTU kit Christmas of Old by Freek's Creations. You can buy the kit at Mystical Scraps
