For this tutorial you will need

The Following Colour Chart
Save and open in PSP.
Ok we are ready to start.
REMEMBER TO SAVE OFTEN
Step 1: - Outline
We will be starting with the mushroom on the left. The outline below has been resized a lot so you can see it clearly.
To make this easier I have numbered all pixels over 1.
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 on the outline colour chart (#611A20) and start at the top of your mushroom.
Change the colours as you go. The mushroom head is Colour 1 (#611A20) - the stem, spots and underneath are colour 3 (#A58B8A).
Open a new image 200 x 200 transparent and draw the outline below.
Once that outline is complete carry on with the second mushroom using the outline below.
The pink parts are the parts of the first outline we have already done.
Once that outline is complete carry on with the third mushroom using the outline below.
The pink parts are the parts of the first 2 outlines we have already done.

Get Creative
Copy and paste each leaves as a new layer on top of the mushrooms.
Duplicate it and mirror and flip some of the layers so your leaves are in different positions.
Arrange them around the bottom of the mushrooms.
Use my tag as a guide if you wish.
Save as a psp file so you can add your fairies to it later.
