Silhouette

Before even reading my horoscope (or as I like to call it my "horrible-scope"...c'mon it usually is) I decided to make my first attempt at those amazingly unoriginal silhouettes of each family member. I started with Dylan because he's the most accessible when you don't plan ahead for a picture of someone's profile. It'd look a little funny if I took a trip to Steve's office just to snap a quick photo of the side of his face...right??

So here it is: Dylan's silhouette. I did it unconventionally compared to every tutorial I've found by simply blacking out the profile in Paint (because I do NOT own fancy editing software like the rest of the craft world...**cough cou
gh birthday present Val & Eric**):

**note the very NOT smooth perimeter and funky chin that I just couldn't get right**

Oh and about that funky, dead-on horoscope I mentioned earlier:

"The big ideas you have had over these past weeks become more real today."

So true.

xo,
Jess

He/it looks so cute!

K... I don't have any of that editing crap either, and Paint & I are pretty good friends. So, um, what did you do exactly? I want to do this for my nieces & nephews! Did you just pencil around his profile & dump the black paint bucket in there? If so... how did you even get close to smooth edges? I can't draw freehand on the computer for the life of me.
