How do I tape wall to keep paint from bleeding Thru?

Our house is full of textured walls and we have been trying to tape off the walls using the good painters tape but the paint still gets under the tape. Does anyone have any ideas on how to stop this from happening.

Thanks!

Thanks that's a good suggestion. I've also heard about using painter's caulking on top of the tape and then painting over the caulking and when you remove the tape some of the caulking stays on the wall and prevents the paint getting under the tape. Has anyone used that before?
