Lesson 5: Glass Brads

Lesson 5 depends entirely on using PSP and PSP-specific filters, so it took a bit of searching to find a GIMP tut that wasn't centred on making buttons for websites (have been feeling a bit under the weather and not in the mood to try and nut out an alternative on my own). And then I just so happened to be looking at scripts on DA and found one that did all the work for me:

It's based on a full-sized, step by step tut, but like I said, I'm feeling particularly lazy this weekend, and am happy enough to just have the result with minimum effort.
