DANDELION
Thanks Irene for the invitation to translate your tutorials
This tutorial was written with PSPX8 and translated with PSPX9 and PSP2020, but it can also be made using other versions of PSP.
Since version PSP X4, Image>Mirror was replaced with Image>Flip Horizontal,
and Image>Flip with Image>Flip Vertical, there are some variables.
In versions X5 and X6, the functions have been improved by making available the Objects menu.
In the latest version X7 command Image>Mirror and Image>Flip returned, but with new differences.

You can change Blend Modes according to your colors.
In the newest versions of PSP, you don't find the foreground/background gradient (Corel_06_029).
You can use the gradients of the older versions.

Copy the presets in the folder of the plugin Alien Skin Eye Candy 5 Impact>Settings>Glass/Shadow.
One or two clic on the file (it depends by your settings), automatically the preset will be copied in the right folder.
