Self portraits
My friend Sally, over at Diamonds in the Rough, had such a great idea on how to do easy self-portraits...that we just had to give it a try ourselves!
First we took a good close-up of our heads, and then we used a photo-editing program ( I used Photobucket,) to turn it to greyscale/ black & white
 
We printed these out and taped them on our patio door
( which let the light shine through from the back. )
Then, we placed another piece of plain white paper over the top,
and the kids traced their photos.
 
And here are the finished results!
Pretty neat, huh?!
Sally also said that,
"If you leave the photos in color, you can use teeny colored pieces of paper from magazine pictures to glue over them and make a collage of their faces."
We'll have to give that a try sometime, too!
(Be sure to visit Sally's blog and see her girls' great portraits, too!) :-)
