This tutorial was written for Valorie, one of the lovely ladies at my tutorial testing group. Valorie emailed me and asked if I had any tutorials to match the song "Lips of an Angel" by Hinder which she couldn't get out of her head. After listening to the song and lyrics I decided to write a tutorial especially for Valorie as nothing I had written so far matched the words to this song. So Valorie, this one's for you
