Diamond


his tutorial was written by Mizteeque on 21st May 2019 and assumes a working knowledge of psp.
Any similarity to other works is unintentional and purely coincidental
Written in PSP9 other versions should work just as well

    1. Im not sure how else to explain it Wally! You need to close/hide the white background layer and mask layer in your layer palette, merge the remaining layers together, then open/unhide the hidden layers.
