♥ All Geared Up ♥ CT Tutorial Scraps N Company.

This tutorial was created with Photoshop CS6 or CS2 depending on what filters I use. Some older filters will no longer work in CS6. Can be done with other versions and/or programs.

Supplies:

Artist's Tube of choice: I am using the awesome PTU work of The Hunter. Please DO NOT use this image without the proper license or permission. You can find this tube here

Scrap Kit of choice: I am using the gorgeous matching PTU kit Sweet Steam by Bibi's Collection, and you can also find it at S&Co ♥

Mask of choice: I am using mask ARZMN_Mask%04 by YEP! ME and you can find it by clicking on the image to bring it to full size and save image.

Fonts of choice: I am using FFF Galaxy for the © and ARRR Matey BB for the name/text.
