Easter Bunny

For this tutorial you will need the following:

Paint Shop Pro, I am using PSP X, you should be able to use any version.

Tube of choice, I am using the artwork of Alicia Mujica (Easter Surprise) which you need a license to use. 

Scrap kit of choice. I am using a PTU kit by Graphics of Fantasy, which you can buy at

Graphics of Fantasy Store, PFD, Scraps From the Heart, and S&Co

Font of choice, I am using Nella Sue

Mask of your choice, the one I used is no longer available online

Plugins: No outside plugins used
I do use Eye Candy 4000 Gradient Glow on all my copyrights/credits layers
I do this because some forums will make a .png tag show up with a black background and then your
copyright doesn't show.



Just remember that my choices of papers and elements is just a suggestion, change it up and make it yours! You don't have to follow mine exactly.

Add a drop shadow of your choosing to tubes & elements throughout. I usually use 1, 1, 50, 5 unless otherwise noted.
