This tutorial is written as if you have a general knowledge on how to use the program.

***What you'll need***
Program of Choice.
I am using Photoshop CS5

But, if you know your tools you can use any program of choice

Tube of choice.
I am using the artwork of Ismael Rac

You must purchase a license to use his tubes and can do so HERE

Before merging the layers you'd like to use together change the red dots mode to soft light to get the sort of pinkish color as seen in my sample.

Scrapkit of Choice

I am using the scrapkit “Adorkable” by Candy's Treats

You can find this HERE

*I used some sparkles from elsewhere, this is entirely optional!*

Mask of Choice

I am using Mask 133 by Vabys

You can find this for download HERE
