This tutorial was written by me on 13 September 2009. Any similarities to other tutorials is purely coincidental.
Supplies needed:
Tube and close up of choice. I am using the exquisite artwork of Jennifer Janesko. I got this tube when CILM was still open. You can find her at CDO now.
Scrapkit. I used Vintage Autumn made by me. If you would like to purchase it, you can here, here, here, here, here or here.
Template 185 made by me. You can download it from my blog here.
Mask 238 by Vix. You can download it from her site here. Thank you!
Font of choice. I used Bonheur Royale. This is a pay font so I can't supply.
Plugins:
Eyecandy 5 Textures - Texture Noise
No other supplies needed
