Little Pistachio

All of my tutorials require a working knowledge of PSP! This
tutorial was written by me on April 20, 2009
It is of my own ideas and creation! Any other tutorials found
to be similar is coincidental.

Supplies needed.

Mask of choice
I got mine from here

Tubes of choice

For my tutorial I used the lovely tubes of Josephine Tan. You
need a license to use them which you can get here.

Scrapkit of choice

The beautiful scrapkit I used is made by Pebbles.
The name of the scrapkit is called "Pistachio Swirls" it's a PTU kit so I can't supply it.
To get this beautiful kit go to here.
