ACIDULÉ
This tutorial is a personal creation from Valérie Savary,
better known
as valyscrappassion.com.
I
have her written authorization to translate her tutorials and 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 artwork creators'work. 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 at here.
This tutorial was made on April 5, 2014, 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.
Download the zip file containing the materials, decompress, copy the originals and close them. Work with the copies. For fonts and presets, double-click on them and they will install themselves.
For gradients,
masks, selections, textures, etc, simply place in your appropriate PSP folders.
