Hey this is a blog on behalf of White Rose! Her space got deleted and she’s in the processes of making a new one but as no one will know the link until its finished she asked if she could post this blog on my space :)

1 2 3 Go!
There has been quite a few Blend Competitions, I’ve been in a few and I think they’re really fun!
So I thought I’d do one myself ;)
So... it's a "blend" competition - if you don't know what blends are, have a look at these http://i41.photobucket.com/albums/e259/xRosannaBellx/db02f9fe.gif http://i41.photobucket.com/albums/e259/xRosannaBellx/0b8eca17.gif http://i41.photobucket.com/albums/e259/xRosannaBellx/44c731cd.gif http://i41.photobucket.com/albums/e259/xRosannaBellx/ba560874.gif
They’re not as hard or completed as you might think :) They are really just funky/jazzed up photos of Famous people :P
On Red Rose’s website she made tutorials about it for you guys (That’s where I learnt), which hopefully you've found by now… if not, you've got a week to learn and then practice. :D
Now for the rules and hints/tips!
Read them, otherwise you might be in trouble. :P:P
1), I have to choose the Famous People you have to make a blend of - not to be nasty or anything, of course. It's just that if you all do a different Person, it'll be SO hard to judge!
There will be two Categories
Male:
Adam Brody
Brad Pitt
Daniel Radcliffe
Chad Michael Murray
Tony Hawk
&
Female:
Hilary Duff
Tyra Banks
Rachel Bilson
Mischa Baton
Olsen Twins (You can either do a blend of both of them, or Mary-Kate or Ashley, completely your choice)
You can make 1 blend from the Femal’s and 1 from the Male’s but you do not need to do both you can do just one if you like
So you need to find up to 2 images I suggest you search on Google under Images :). Or download these PSD’s

2) It has to be your own work, not someone else's! Put your name on it sort of like “© White Rose”
3) You must use at least 2 photos, but there is no maximum.
4) If you have won Gold, Silver or Bronze, you'll be notified via your MSN Space so make sure it's set to public! The prizes will be a banner from me, and my next blog will feature the top 3 blends (perhaps more if I have trouble deciding!)
5) There won't be any voting! I'm absolutely sick of competitions where people have to vote... they're just popularity competitions. You will be judged on your blend alone – and I will not pick the blend I hate because the Artist is a friend say. If you know what I mean ;)
Need inspiration/ideas? Have a look at this girl's blends!! They're great for ideas (H)
Also, there are HEAPS of places to get brushes, fonts and other stuff (including tutorials), not just Red Rose’s website. I suggest you take a look at these awesome websites below…
