When I saw this inspiration pic for this week's Moxie Fab Tuesday Trigger, I immediately thought of cyanotypes! Cyanotypes are "prints" made from photosensitive paper that reacts to sunlight. The results are beautiful silhouette prints in shades of white and Prussian Blue.
My day job is as a scientist, so this type of thing appeals to both sides of my personality. The result is this set of cyanotype mini cards!
I just love the detail and all the different tones. Can't wait to try this again! I'm saving up keys for the next round. Thanks for looking!

ReplyDeleteI get the HI thing....I caught that too and purposely had to make a small "i" when typing it...because I kept wanting to make it HI. Guess, it IS as my Dad puts it when I am silly "You can take da girl from da islands, but you can't take da island out of the girl!" LOL ;)
