Mount

Had a talk yesterday on how to mount photographs. I was the only one who had a try with the bevelled edge cutter using an off-cut. Think I'm going to stick to using shop bought mounts as the bevel cutting kit is £60+!!!

Theme- leaving the frame
Cutting edge photographer - Jackie

I have been wondering about how to tackle this theme - liking your interpretation!

@30pics4jackiesdiamond I once thought I wanted to do this as well and came to the same conclusion as you. I’m impressed with your skills though, because I didn’t even try. Terrific photo for your clever response to the challenge.

A great response to the challenge Jackie.

[Kathy]

Good story of the cutting of mats.

@randystreat thank you
@koalagardens it's fiddly
@joansmor it's neater than I expected
@merrelyn thank you
@grammyn I don't print enough to invest
@365anne thank you anne

@30pics4jackiesdiamond this would be useful for framing your watercolors as well Jackie

[summerfield]

i used to do this a long long time ago but wasn't very good what with my carpal tunnel problems. i had to sell the bevelling cutter. but i agree with katy @grammyn would be useful for your art.

I love your creative approach to this week’s theme.

I think I recently gave away the hand held mat cutter I've had for decades and almost never used. If I haven't, it will be in the next box of donations. I love your interpretation of "leaving the frame."

[Granagringa]

Such a clever graphic interpretation.

@granagringa thank you Madeline
@mcsiegle someone will appreciate it mary
@shutterbug49 thank you Debbie

@summerfield my art mostly gets framed in a bin
@grammyn I wouldn't waste the card!!
