Hand 'rotoscoped' Photo

Super speedy and personal gift for my beautiful man friend Tam

My friend Tam was coming over for a birthday dinner and I felt awful not having a gift for him (as I hand make gifts, they are frequently late and people are accustomed to it now!) so I had this photo in mind of him and his lovely boyfriend (ignore the crazy lady in the hat and glasses with the large gin!) and so... super quick trace and mount :) x

    Pick a pic you like, something clear, and bring it up on your monitor at the size you want. You'll want a cheap paper that you can trace through. Hold the paper over the image and keeping a nice relaxed wrist start going over the dark lines you can see through the paper. That's why I like to think of it as hand rotoscoping :)
