This tutorial is written by me as I'm creating, so there may be some writing mistakes. If there is anything unclear, please email me (bombedbyblossom@gmail.com), and I'll clear up the issue as best I can. This is written by me, and any resemblance to other tutorial(s) is purely coincidental.
This tutorial is written using GIMP; however, if you are knowledgeable with your specific graphics program, you should be able to use it following my instructions. This tutorial is only written as a guide to inspire. You are encouraged to use your own choice of supplies, use your imagination, and make your tag "your own creation," and I would love to see what you create!
