holiday card ideas

Holiday Critters and Photos

This card is really cute, and since there are four spots, I can make a card for my parents with a picture of all my siblings. I like the concept of this card. It's like those fair pictures where you put your head in the hole with the buff dude or the beach chick. 

Modern Lettering Collage

This is a nice card with multiple photos and text. I like the simplicity of it; the text is bold and easy to read, the christmas tree, and the circles. I think the B&W picture work well with this design because there's a color theme going on with the light blue and orange.

12-Photo Collage Present

I think this card looks very nice. I don't think I'd put that many pictures on the cover though, but I like that there is a ribbon on the card, making it look like a present. If I made a card like that, I can use a real ribbon to make it look like that, which would be very cool.

Color Ideas

Photo By: Raja Indra Putra

This picture reminds me of chinese new years. I really like how the lantern in the front is in focus while the other ones are out of focus. And it's red. I like red. But I like blue more.

Photo By: Amelie Le Fabuleux Destin d'

I love that little lady bug. It's so cute. The red isn't popping though.

Photo By: Ali U

This looks very awesome. I love how they used a mirror and the sky had beautiful clouds that day for them to do this photo. The water is crisp and clear in this photo as well.

Time Exposure

Photo By: Oscar Burriel

This picture looks SOOOO cool. This picture makes me think of Da Vinci's diagram of a man. I think I should do that.

Photo By: Carl Rosendahl

I loooove that twist in the throw of the dice. It looks very nice. It's like the leading line to the dice, which  is on the rule of thirds.

I really like the trails the billiard balls leave on the pool table. I also like how the balls are in the triangle, so it's like showing, "we were like this... and now we're everywhere else."

All photos are clickable and were found using Google, because Flickr decided not to work in school.

Yearbook Ideas

ITS SO ADORABLEEE

Photo by: CADiver

This picture. is. adorable. Enough said.

I like how the paint bottles and paint brush in front of him is out of focus.

Photo by: Tennessee Wesleyan College

The students look busy and intrigued with the lab they are doing. They're all doing different things.

Photo by: Chloe Winn

This picture is cute. The couple is kind of on the rule of thirds. I think it's a little too green...

Fashion Ideas

Photo by Andrew Baily

I'm not in love with this picture, but the idea that's portrayed is lovely. I like the colors of the picture overall. It's somewhat grey, but the leaves are little bursts of color.

Photo by Matt Andrews

This looks like it was taken with hipstamatic or instagram, but apparently it's not. I like the wind in this picture. It made the field, her scarf and hair lean towards the left. I'd like to do something with wind, but instead of having the hair blow into someone's face, make it blow away.

Photo by Tony Di Lorenzo

I love the close up on this model. She's pale which matches the background and there's red on her hair and lips. I'm not sure what the powder is on her face... I had an idea of what I wanted to do, and this close up made me enhance my idea.

My Self Portraits :)

Architecture Ideas

Photo By: David Gutierrez

This photo reminds me of going to Universal Studios over the summer. It has very vivid colors. The angle is just straight up. I get dizzy staring at it too long. Haha.

Photo By: David Gutierrez

Same photographer, cool. I love the translucent staircase and a person's silhouette walking up the stairs. The repeating lines of the staircase make a leading line towards the left of the photo.

Photo By: Andrew (without a last name...)

This picture of a Japanese temple has really nice lighting. I'm not sure if it was taken like that or if he went onto photoshop to do it, but I love the faint vignette and the blue tone to the picture. It gives the temple a really eerie feeling. Because I watch japanese dramas and anime, it's quite relevant to what temples are portrayed as.

Self Portrait Ideas

O_O I've been in this class for 4  years now. Why do I need more self portraits -_-

Photo By: Yuto Watanabe

This photo is adorable! I like that he's "holding" a camera and he has different expressions for each of the photos. He only used one lighting source for this picture.

Photo By: Matt Penning

It's like the bill just came, and he's not happy about it. I like the idea of putting the camera inside the mailbox. I wish that red thing on the left hand side was gone though.

Photo By: Daniel Sheridan

This photo is such an awesome idea. It's creative. I think his nose should've been blown off, too. That's okay.

Photo Sandwiches!

This assignment is photosandwiches. I've done one before. It's somewhere near the beginning of this blog.
These are some ideas I found online that look pretty cool, but they're not exactly what I was looking for because every time I tried to search "photo sandwich," I got a photo of a sandwich... Haha

This first picture is by Silke Seybold. Oh my it's another naked person. Lol uhh. I like the texture of like... cracked paint overlayed on the photo. The girl with the gas mask looks interesting as well.

This second is by Juan Diego Fonseca. It's just another overlay of a picture of a tree ontop of a picture of an eye of a cat, but the tree frames the eye very nicely.

The last is by Zoriah. I really can't tell what it is on the guy's face, but it makes his skin creepy.

Two of the three photos are from flickr, but were all searched on google. No links are added, because the pictures wouldn't upload from school so I don't have the links at home.

Famous Photos Reinvented

This week's project is Famous Photos Reinvented. 

Tears- Man Ray

This is the photo that is required to reinvent.

Rose and Driftwood- Ansel Adams

I LOOOVEEEE Ansel Adams' pictures! It's all black & white and nature pictures. It's BEAUTIFUL :3

Plus this is a macro picture. I like macro pictures.

Le Violon d'Ingres- Man Ray

I believe Taylor A. Brown had recreated this photo a couple of years ago. It's pretty simple. 

I hope I'm not in trouble for the naked lady.... 

Photos are from around the web. 

The second two pictures are clickable.

Read... It's good for you :3

This week the project is words.

Picture by Nancy Ward

This picture is really cool because there's a person standing in a "standing zone"

Actions speak louder than words.

Picture by colodio

Everything's made in china, but I love that this doll had the "made in china" pressed into the plastic, rather than it being printed on. 

Picture by Anton Belickiy

MATH is just the language nobody understands. Haha. Although this isn't words, I like the macro and the vignette on the picture. It looks really nice.

Monochromativity

New Semester, New Project. This week, it's color scheme.

Photo by: JenniPenni

The person is SO pale! The picture is a square, and it's very simple. I love that there's a flower. I find it very random. Haha.

Photo by: Cris Holdorph

Corks. That's awesome. I like that it just looks as though the corks were just put in a pile. It doesn't seem like it was set up other than it's a pile on a wood floor.

Photo by: Marcusblue

This HAS to be my favorite picture. I literally screamed "PRETTYYYYY" when I saw this one. The bed looks so comfortable and I love the plaid bedding and the wall behind it matches.
