Black and White

So, the photography class I’m taking… Project one was all black and whites. Here are a few of my final edits for the class. Our critique is tonight, so we’ll see which shots the prof picks to share with the class.

[Side note: I'm almost disappointed with myself for how relieved I was when she mentioned that she would pick which photos to pull out. I'm so indecisive that it could have been stressful to decide which ones I wanted to share with the class. I'm also that insecure. Side note over.]

I’ve posted some of these already in the color. I ended up editing way more than I initially picked out, which was nice since some pics I liked much better in black and white.






As always, there are more here.

This chronicles the day I flew to Seattle. I’m itching to go on a trip again. Alas, I’m poor. ;-)

Bags & Totes

Here are a couple simple gift ideas. ;-) These were Christmas and birthday gifts and were relatively simple to do.
For the above design, you get some of the cake plate doilies and go over it with a fabric marker or fabric paint. I used a marker and then did the letters. It’s hard to tell in the photos, but the “k” is pink and the “L” is red. Pretty simple. And pretty. People are amazed by it. (Got the idea on pinterest.)

The green bag is a variation of the same design, just with different placement and I added a ribbon and lace bow. The cake doilies are so versatile too. I used them on a t-shirt for my niece and for a another bag that I alternated between the pattern and freehand swirlies (I didn’t get a picture of that one.)

The giraffe bag is a fabric marker and time. ;-) I just drew that while looking at a giraffe pattern. Also simple but perfect for a giraffe-lover.
