Each week we'll pick an art form and share a few tips and/or tutorials to help you with your creations using that medium or technique.
This week's medium is: Stock & Resources
WDWParksGal says:
When creating a tube or clear-cut stock, once the area desired has been removed, place a contrasting colored-background beneath the clear-cut layer to see any spots that have been missed or if the edges are not jagged. Smooth out edges with the eraser tool or the smudge tool. If the stock shouldn't have sharp edges use a soft eraser brush. Save as a PNG in order to keep the transparent background.
