The Tape Method

6:16 PM

I tried the tape method today for the first time. I have wanted to do it forever. I also "lightly" cut my crease and loved the result. I think I will be doing a more dramatic cut the crease soon.

    I love the look of a cut crease, but when I try it myself, everything ends up blended on it's own after an hour! Any tips on how to keep the "crease cut"? :)

    thanks Shayla :)

    Kathleen, I used the 219 to draw the line; thicker at the outer edge and then thinner as you get closer to the inner corner. Then I used the 226 to blend it. Again I tried to keep it darker and more intense near the outer edge. HTH :)
