I like to use vintage images in my cards but I get frustrated when I cant use my Spellbinders dies to cut out a decorative oval without losing some of the face. Today I had a play and created some new images with bigger smudgy borders using Paint. It was an electronic way of doodling as I copied an area of the background, enlarged it and then put the photo in the middle. I then used the colour picking and airbrush tools repeatedly to create smudges to soften the edge of the photo.
WELCOME: Just a bit of nonsense really from a paper crafter and quilter who loves to dabble in all sorts of crafts. It will give me a way of remembering my craft projects - and sharing them with others
