You will find the original tutorial here :

Shawnee deliberately wrote the title this way, and not « Indian Spirit » as I suggested
so I respected her wishes.
This tutorial is a personal creation.
Any resemblance with another one would be only pure coincidence.
It is stricly forbidden to modify tubes, to change their name or take off the matermarks,
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 Shawnee’s work and the tubers 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

I used PSP 2020 to create my tag and make the translation
you can follow this tutorial with another version of PSP, but the result might be slightly different

Supplies

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 from PSPX4, in the later versions of PSP the functions « Mirror » and « Flip » have been replaced by --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

Plugins needed
Alien Skin Eye Candy : Impact > Glass
Graphics Plus > Cross Shadow
Simple > Top Left Mirror
Thank you Renée Salon for sharing your plugins page

Prepare your work !
duplicate all the tubes and work with the copies to preserve originals
save your work often in case of problems with your psp
use the Dropper tool to pick up your colors into your tubes and misted images
don’t forget to erase the tuber’s watermark
Shawnee chose these :

prepare colors 1 and 2 as FG and BG colors into the materials palette
don’t hesitate to change blend modes and opacities of the layers to match your personal colors and tubes
place the selection into the dedicated folder of My Corel PSP General folder
open the mask and minimize to tray
