February 2014 Premier Top Pick

We had an outstanding number of pages posted in the February 2014 Premier Gallery.  The tutorials and Manu’s gorgeous kit really sparked everyone’s imagination and certainly raised the bar. It was also obvious that many of you were taking Linda’s Custom Shadow Mastery 1 class, because the quality of the drop shadows on many of the layouts was outstanding.

Our Top Pick for February goes to lovetodecorate for her exquisite page of her two granddaughters sitting on a flower. It’s very difficult to make an extraction like this look realistic, and lovetodecorate completely nailed the technique. The perspective and her custom shadows are perfect.
