Ink Something

Hi all...  I'm so bad at keeping my personal blog updated aren't I?  Guess all my attention is on my challenge blog and keeping my store supplied with new digis! :)   Well if you aren't a follower of my challenge/inspiration blog (*gasp*) you'll want to be sure to hop over and follow us - because we've been giving away every single New Release set I come out with just for leaving a comment, plus I also offer freebies like this kit today :) Here's a quick page I am also including in your FREE kit (w/out the pics of my fur baby of course, so you can add your own!) You can pick up this FREE KIT by clicking the promo pic below: Have a Crafty kind of day and thanks for visiting :)

I used a different tutorial than the one on Latina's A&C because they used cm and my cutter in i

 

This is easier to do than it looks!  It's actually a 5-strand braid in the middle, with  3-strand braids added into the edges of it on both sides.  C's hair is long but thin, and M's is very thick, but shorter ... it worked fine on both :)   You can find the video tutorial here .
