translator’s note
Belle de Nuit  works with PSP X, I use PSPX9 to create my tag and write my translation
but this tutorial can be realized with another version
according to the version of PSP you use, the results might be slightly differents
don’t hesitate to change the blend modes of the layers to match your tubes and colors
Colors

color 1 --> foreground color --> FG --> left click --> #ffecdc
color 2 --> background color --> BG --> right click --> #a63f2c
color 3 --> #ffffff

Use the pencil to follow the steps
hold down left click to grab it and move it
