Default Removing paint that leaked under masking

Hi,

We recently redid a room which involved stripping the wood, restaining and
"polycrylic"ing it, then painting the walls.

However, when we removed the blue masking tape, there are smudges of paint
that leaked under, and hence are on the wood. What do you guys think is the
best way to remove these spots? Scraping with a razor blade is ok, but it
tends to go too deep...

HELP!

Also, anyway to avoid this in the future? Maybe we didn't stick the tape
down hard enough, or maybe we did things in the wrong order... I don't
know.

Thanks!

Ryan
