Sweet Silhouettes


This week, I got a wild hair for creating silhouette profiles of the kids. I've wanted to do this for awhile, and I finally just decided to try it. By some miracle, I actually found profile pics of them both on this blog. They weren't ideally posed, but I went forward with the project anyway and was fairly pleased with the results!

All I did was print the photos, staple them to black contruction paper, and then cut out the profiles. Amazingly, I managed to size both of them to fit within 5X7 frames. Add a white background and VOILA! Adorable silhouette profiles!

Erik is still laughing at me (he's not sure these actually look like our kiddos), but from a distance they look pretty good! At least I think so! Later, I might actually try and pose the kids for better shots, but in the meantime I'm searching for the perfect place to display these. :)
