Beeeeautiful Emo

This tutorial is for those that have a working knowledge of PSP. This tutorial was written by me on the 5th day of July 2011 and any resemblance is purely coincidental. I used PSP 9, but any version should work. I do not allow my tutorials to be translated and please do not claim them as your own. If you would like to share the tutorial please send a link to my blog.

Things Needed:
