A couple of my favorites:
Hearts, because they're cute:
Post processing involved changing the temperature to make the color of the lights pink instead of yellow.
And a baby bat signal! This one I used the light outside Jeff's house.
The rest are here.
How I did it:
I needed a source of light that had a lot of little lights that aren't toooo bright -- the street lights outside Jeff's house are too far apart, and too bright (I used light across the street for the batsignal one because in front of jeff's house was too bright). After brainstorming, I realized christmas lights would work perfectly!
Then, I had to cut little itsy bitsy shapes out of black cardstock (I tried a yellow post it note, and it made my pics have a yellowish tint.. very displeasing). This was probably the hardest part, because it's very hard to cut little tiny shapes. A paper cutting stamp might have worked better:

Nice! How did you make the hearts look pink though?
ReplyDeletepost processing -- it was originally yellowish, so i changed the temperature to pink.
ReplyDeleteOR MAGIC!
Ok does Melisa ever sleep? why is she always first...
ReplyDeleteAnyhow brilliant picture (hearts one) I really like it well done
And thanks for the technique explanation :D
Sara, these are really cool. Vanessa loved them!
ReplyDeleteThanks Jaime! I hope you can try it out w/ Vanessa too. I bet Blanca has the punch-hole stamps that would be easier than cutting little shapes
ReplyDeleteAre there any kitty cat ones? I see the cut out. :-) I am very intrigued and interested how you did this. I would be fun to try and do this for Christmas or some other holidays as well with cool themes. I'd like a tutorial please. Good jobz!
