For this tutorial you will need

The Following Colour Chart
Save and open in PSP.
This colour chart is just a guide, feel free to use whatever colours you want.
Ok we are ready to start.
REMEMBER TO SAVE OFTEN
Step 1:
This is the outline we will be making. Mine has been resized a lot so you can see it clearly.
To make this easier I have numbered all pixels over 1.
The clock is symmetrical so where I have only put the numbers on one side to make it easier to read, you do exactly the same on the other side.
Open a new image 100 x 100 transparent.
Select the brush tool with the following settings.
Size: 1 - Hardness, Opacity and Density: 100
Zoom in to about 800% - 1000%
Set your foreground to colour 1 (#FF96C0) on the outline colour chart or a colour of your choice and start atthe top (center) of your canvas with your pink outline. (You can move the image later using your move tool if you need to).
*NOTE*
The parts in pink are done in colour 1 (#FF96C0) and the parts in blue are done in colour 2 (#92AAFF). Change your colours accordingly.
Continue doing the rest of the outline using the colours shown or colours of your choice.
