This tutorial is for those that have a working knowledge of PSP. This tutorial was written by me on April 20, 2013 and any resemblance is purely coincidental. I use 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.  Thank you!

Things Needed:

3)      Paste as a new layer on our working image and place to your liking

4)      Now activate your selections tool and have your ruler showing; draw rectangles  like I have below

23)   Copy and paste as a new layer on our working image

24)   Rotate by 90% to the left
