TECHNIQUES & TIPS
What is this ALL about?
This bundle is all about tips and techniques that I find extremely practical and useful.
Some of these will be presented through video and some through photos and words.
I hope you enjoy these and that they will help you in your artist journey!
Preparing your TISSUE paper for your printer!
This 5 minute video shows you how to cut/tear your tissue paper and how to attach it to your printer paper for printing. I have been using this technique for many years and love the results. Hope you try it and enjoy!

Using Adobe Photoshop I enlarge the photo to the substrate size. I place Guides where I need them for easy proportion size.
