Melissa - Paper Shenaniganz

My tip: Don't be afraid of dimension, especially when you're trying to create a background to showcase your beautiful digi's.

Barbara-Sketches for Scrappin

My Tip: Use an embossing folder to give a tree trunk texture.

Cindy --In Love with PAPER

TiP:  I crunched up my clouds to add texture.  Instead of matching the orange sun rays up perfectly, I offset them to have some of the yellow show, too.

Kimberly- Creations by Kimmy 

 My Tip: If you cut out an image like this little girl above take a black marker and go around the outer edges, makes it look more clean cut and hides any jagged edges you may have left giving the image a more finished look. 

Brenda - Disney Girl 

My Tip:  Journey Glaze or Glossy Accents work wonderful for achieving a water/wet look.

Teresa-Fresh and Renewed

Tip: Use temporary adhesive to adhere any masks you create.

 I learned that the hard way! Butterflies

are covering my little boo-boo. LOL!

Sandy- A Working Mom's Joy

My Tip: For a quick, easy and cute background, try a digi one. 

Bugaboo has this great front door and stoop one!

Lynne aka Her Craftiness

TIP: I love to add Action Wobbles to the back of fussy cut items to add movement and more dimension to my cards
