we have paperage!
wanna see?
we have colors besides pink...which somewhat surprises me.
i had thought that keeping the backgrounds monochromatic would help to unify the different colors in the photographs, but it turns out that bringing in bits of those other colors...and judicious hits of white...just looked infinitely better.
we have outlining, around the edges of each of the patterned papers.
i also tried outlining ON the photos...but doing *both* turned out to be too much. (this is why i try things out before i glue 'em on. it's slower...but safer!) photo batch #2 is borderless and lightly inked around the edges. (i am definitely going to use this idea on *something*, though, b/c i love the look of it!)
up next:
embellishments...or as i think of it...
THE FUN PART!!! :)
oh you are SO good!!! that looks like some real precision cutting you did!!! just this morning i sliced my left index finger WIDE open cutting a straight edge...i would probably have sliced myself to ribbons doing this kind of cutting!!!
