Just in case you missed it, I wanted to point out BriAnna's generosity again! For the ASDR challenge, she was gracious enough to put up the basic tear action. You can find it here, but just for this week.
Just in case you missed it, there is a tutorial in the forum here sharing how to use this action! Installing actions tutorials are on this page.
BriAnna has other tear actions too! Check them out here. They are all awesome and I recommend them all.
For me, I have no desire to rip anything manually when I can use her action. There's no thinking twice.
I also find myself using the cutout action a lot to make stickers and recommend it.
I have never gotten an action I was not happy with, so do not hesitate to try them out. (small print--I am not affiliated with her in any way!)
I must be honest, though (sorry BriAnna). Although her stitching actions work well and for non-particular people are just fine on a layout, I do own a different stitching action which I would recommend more highly.
I am loving Terry Maruca's stitching action. It does cost a lot more money and if you do not have the funds (as I did not for a long time), AC's stitching actions work well and you can just buy one. However, Terry's are very realistic. The purchase comes with 5 or 6 types of stitching, which makes the cost comparable to AC's which are purchased individually rather than a set.

So, there you have it! My most used actions are the tears by AC, the cutout action by AC, and the stitching by Terry.


























1 WARM FUZZIES--comments SO appreciated!:
Not doing ADSR because I never could find a partner. I could do it alone but without a partner depending on me to finish the layouts, I have no real motivation to do it so it was pointless.
However, I'm thrilled about this action. I know how to hand tear but it is kind of a pain. An action is so much easier! Thanks for promoting this :)
