Best Friends


Michelle here again today for Samantha this time!   It's Tips and Tricks Tuesday and I have two little tricks for you today.


Trick #1 - I'm a *flicker* sort of girl!  For the hair on my little ladies today I started by flicking the darkest colors, then the medium colors and then just did a slight blend for their hair.  I wanted the textured look for their lucious locks!

Trick #2 - fussy cutting is quick and easy and I find myself doing it on many of my images.  To get a smooth line when cutting, turn your paper, not your scissors.  I take lots of tiny straight cuts on the more detailed areas of the image.  Pop your image up on foam and it adds great dimension to your project!
