This tutorial is a creation of my own. Any resemblance to another is purely coincidental. No copyright infrigments are intended.      I've used techniques I've learned along the way and new ones as I learn. Please read my Terms before doing my tutorial. I used Paintshop Pro X to make this tutorial, but will be compatible with versions 8 and newer. You will need to have a working knowledge of Paint Shop Pro to do this tutorial. My tutorials may seem lengthy, but I try to write them so even the moderate beginner can be able to do them as well as the more advanced. I hope you enjoy :) What you will need: Paint Shop Pro if you don't have it you can get an evaluation copy Here Embellishments Here Mask Here Simple Filters Here The red head woman image and mask I've collected along the way or got from a group.
