So little time and so much to do!! I did find a few minutes to play in this thread though. I love your artwork Palms! Can't wait to try out the links that you gave us, but for now, a little "cheesy" Christmas card.

HHmmmm Soft and Fluffy - I've got to think about this.
Thought about it - not sure if you mean me or one of the other Peter's at RetouchPRO.
I think I must go and find my Grouchy head, ready for the reply.

Palms, I couldn't find my "good" star for the top and just used some other weird brush, kind of looks like a cottonball gone haywire ...kind of like Tinkerbell in the PETER Pan story, eh? ;0
