This tutorial is of my own creation and any resemblance to any other tuts is purely coincidental. This tutorial is for personal use only, using it for monetary gain is against our TOU's.

Supplies:

Gimp

PTU Collab kit My Angel Above from Scraps and the City. For this tut I used Stef's part. Purchase it HERE

Tube of choice. I am using the art of Keith Garvey. You must have a license to use histubes. Purchase them at PTE HERE

Font- Alex Brush
