My entries for Bee's contest

Here are the pictures we got to start with:

What fun!
I love this kind of stuff!

So, here we go. I warned told Bee that I was excited about trying my own Photoshop experiments. She said she was excited to see what I could come up with, so hopefully she'll think these are ok!

First, just for fun, I turned her into Santa (hey, she said she wanted us to hide the chin, and Santa's beard is the perfect thing!)Then I worked at really doing what she asked for: Photoshopping out the double chin.
Here's what I came up with:

As you can see, I took the liberty of adding a new hairstyle and changing some contours here and there too. (Hope that's ok, Bee.)
Then I remembered she said she wanted to be blond, so I tried that:
Then, just for fun, I decided we needed to see the "new" Bee as Xena the Warrior Princess.
(Hopefully this won't traumatize her grandchildren too badly).
So, Bee, whaddya think? :)
