Romeo _eng ....L&K
This tut is made for PSP 8, the standard version.
Because Karen and I couldn’t make a choice we made
Romeo and Juliëtte, a duo lesson, lollll.
Actually they have the same
base, but they look totally different. We doubted a whole day and then
decided to write them both.
This tut is translated for us
by Mac (one off the L&K members )and we give here a hug and biggggg
kiss for doing a wonderfull job, thanks sweetie, lisette and
karin.
Part 2, we repeat a piece of the frame of Juliëtte..
