MY TRANSLATIONS

KRYS


This tutorial is a personal creation from Valérie Savary, better known as valyscrappassion.com


You can find the original here.
Any resemblance with another one would be only pure coincidence.
It is strictly forbidden to modify tubes, to change their name or take off the watermarks, to present them on your sites or blog, to share them in groups, 
to make a bank of images or to use them on lucrative purposes.

Thank you to respect Valérie’s work and other creators' work mentioned in the original tutorial. Don’t hesitate to warn me if you have any trouble with this translation and I’ll try to fix the problem as quickly as I can.  You can reach me here.

 This tutorial was made on October 12, 2015, with an earlier PSP version.  I have used PSPX5 to make my translation; you can follow this tutorial with any other versions of PSP, but the result might be slightly different.
