This tutorial was written for those with a working knowledge of PSP. I use version 9, but any version should work.
Supplies:
Tube of Choice: I used a tube by Tyson McAdoo that I had purchased from MPT. However, I don't believe he is selling tubes any longer, so if you don't have that tube already, just use one of your choosing.
Scrap Kit of Choice: I used a kit called Hallowicious by Mirella at A Space Between. You can purchase it HERE.
Mask of Choice: I used BeckyMask023. Becky no longer has her site, but she allows her masks to be shared. You can download it HERE.
Template: I'm using the awesome Boo 2 You Too template from Dee at Dees'Sign Depot. You can get it HERE.
Font of Choice: I used Scrypticali Normal. It's a FTU font and you can get it HERE.

Screenworks - blocked dot
Eye Candy 4000 - glass, gradient glow
