Materials

 

This translation is written with PSP 2020, if you work with other versions some things might be different but the result will be the same.

 

Note: In the latest versions of PSP the command
Image-Mirror has become Image - Mirror - Mirror Horizontal
and Image-Flip has become Image - Mirror - Mirror Vertical

 

Preparations

When you open the alpha_cative.pspimage file you will see a blank canvas.
It is not empty: it contains all the selections needed, saved to Alpha Channels.
