Christmas Tree Photo Ornament

ST1 ..how cute!!!
I watched a video that gave me different info for my pp to make a 'bulb'. I think I get that part. So many pieces are coming together. This is just the motivation I needed to get learning!
I am the Rv gal, so gigs and space are a premium:) that's why a library is good for me.

What is really the best # of photos to use? I see lots of different # of photos on this post.. The video I watched, Gary Hoey said 25, bit obviously too much..
Thanks.

Hi Nancy, I used about 25 in mine but some were duplicated as I knew that the ones on the edges wouldn't be easy to see. If you look at terry's ball, he has a 5x5 set that are clearly visible and a number of others that curl around the edge of the ball so I feel that 25 is reasonable, but fewer can also be used.

I located the other tutorial that I used to make the ring cap for my first attempt. I later just photographed a tree with ornaments already on it so in the final version I didn't use this tutorial.

OMG, I think I did it!!

A HUGE thanks to terry for the step by step and screen shots and Frank for the use of his tree! Beingin an RV, we don't have a tree :(
I am 1 of 8 kids and this was our trip to NYC for St Pats Day. Yup, if you couldn;t tell by the fact I am 1 of 8, yes, we are Irish Catholic.
I am in center shot on left in greenish/aqua coat with my 4 sisters.
thanks again all and Merry Christmas. I can't wait til they all see this in their email tonight!

Well done Nancy and to help you celebrate I decided to become a part of your familyhttp://tapatalk.imageshack.com/v2/14...9515bd1468.jpg

Apologies for the quality of the image, but I would probably not be fit to drive a motor vehicle never mind a camera having spent this afternoon catching up with old neighbours

Sweet! You've done well Nancy! Your family and friends should get a big kick out of this! :D

Thanks Peter and Frank. I think they will be tickeled. I sent the contact sheet too just to show what photos got cut out on corners. They will bring a lot of good memories back when they look at them :)
The problem with a big family is soooo many people in every photo. I may do another one if I can find photos with 1-2 people in them.

Nancy,

Very nice.

Awesome RV Gal! It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas now!

Congratulations on a job well done all around! From “it may be over my head” to “OMG I think I did it”! You nailed it!

Your 2014 Family Christmas Ornament is gorgeous and you are an Inspiration!

Merry Christmas to you and your wonderfully large Irish Catholic Family Nancy.

Frank, very cool and forethoughtful of you to offer up the BG for this endeavor. Typical of you. Admirable and right in line with the Spirit of the Forum. My Christmas Toboggan Hat (red/white trim with the white fuzzy ball on top) is off to you, sir!




As an aside?

I would recommend you doing another one of these Nancy if you get the chance. That will help “lock in” the tools, procedures, things-you-learned-along-the-way, that you used here. You used some pretty advanced stuff to create your beautiful composite image. Stuff that will serve you in the Future and you are off and running!

Not to mention the fun!

Well CONGRATULATIONS! is way to small to say in words, so I am shouting it for you...that you did not give up until you got it is commendable too.

Terry, I've been searching for your image of the aforementioned festive hat with the white fuzzy ball on top, but so far I haven't seen where you've posted it. You HAVE posted it, haven't you? :D

Its gotta be around here somewhere Frank!

Just keep looking buddy!

Oh, and let me know if you find my car keys! I think I left them both in the same place! :D
