We are sponsoring the Less is More challenge this month.
The challenge through Friday is to create a card using the theme of silhouettes.
Perfect time and place to reprint Mel's Tutorial.
...create silhouettes from line art images:
DIGITAL SILHOUETTE:
Open the silhouette in Photoshop
(or other digital software that is
capable of filling images with solid colour.)
Fill all the areas of the line art image
Then print it & use your image:
This digital fill is how I did the ones I used on the cards above
(but not with a deep black. I like using black at 80% to get a silhouette
that reads as dark, but still shows some of the line art of the image.)
You can even get a funky patterned silhouette:
Simply fill the image with a pattern
(Please see this tutorial post if you'd like
to see how pattern filling works).
STAMPED SILHOUETTE:
Stamp the image & then simply colour it in:
To create a patterned stamped silhouette:
Stamp the line art image, then stamp & heat emboss a pattern over it
(with clear embossing powder) then colour it in.
So what's cookin' good lookin'?
Ready to be #100?
LESS IS MORE
