Garances works with PSP2019 and I work with PSP 2019
you can follow this tutorial with another version of PSP, but the result might be slightly different

Supplies
tubes - decoration

choose a landscape image and another character tube if you like
TIP 1 -> if you don’t want to install a font -->
open it in a software as « Nexus Font » (or other font viewer software of you choice)
as long as both windows are opened (software and font), your font will be available in your PSP
TIP 2 -> from PSPX4, in the later versions of PSP the functions « Mirror » and « Flip » have been replaced by -->
« Mirror »has become  --> image => mirror => mirror horizontal
« Flip » has become  --> image => mirror => mirror vertical
