was created some time ago and just put it online. It shows
one way to make a bow look. Intermediate level.
Circle Dingbat Tutorial

make them different colors and any shape. This was not our
original idea.

St. Patrick's Day. You make a heart shape and form that into your

Girl
with decorative Eyes II -
shows you how to create a girl and add the eyes or create them as
you go. I tried to keep it simple, but it is advanced. I'm
not good with hands and arms, so made a simple top with arms going
behind or in front. Also show other samples. This one shows
you how to make hair braids with the shape tool and discusses other ways
to create hair. The top and slacks are very easy to create.

Cream Sundae with Counter and Girl Tutorial
- This places the girl from the above tute at an ice cream
counter with a sundae. Again this is easy. You basically
used the shapes tool and your paintbrush. It's intermediate level,
but beginners can easily do it. I use eyecandy's marble with it,
but you don't have to.
Furry
Cat with Decorative Eyes Tutorial - I
and *urry
Cat II- This

These decorative eyes have more of a black lid over the eye and an

Tweed Frame Tutorial* - A more advanced frame using Paint Shop
Pro and the Redfield Jama Plug in, which you can download at the

different diamond design to your pictures and frames. It shows a couple
of different ideas to try.

I tried to keep it simple, but it seems harder only because I tried to
be as detailed as possible for beginners.

similarly, but note seemed to give a nice even effect.

using the plug in and a drop shadow for your border.

idea at a photo impact tutorial and created it for Paint shop users.

Tutorial - was our first try. Someone needed a graphic and we
tried making it. We used the page curl plug in to create the look
of the pad lifting up.
*Sleeping
Bag Tutorial* is a simple sleeping bag design. More for an
intermediate level user of Paint shop, but not too difficult. You
can make a very simple one or use a page curl plug in, which comes in
later Paint shop versions, for an effect also.

Background Tutorial - is a background make with a sparkly look using
a plug in, Xenofex, for the effect.
