day three

todays project was to make something out of paper.  however,  i can't use glue, scissors, and i can't draw on it.  i thought on this one for three days and then remembered this awesome sun print photo paper that i have.
i still followed the rules...and there are no rules so it doesn't matter.  i was just happy that i thought of something.  either way, you place a piece of this blue paper down and place your objects on top of it, and expose it to sunlight for 1-5 minutes, until the paper turns almost white.  then you rinse the paper for about a minute and let it dry flat.  then you have to press it for a bit to flatten it.  you can only do this if it is bright and sunny outside...this is the first time i had to check the weather a day ahead to plan a craft-ish project.
this one i used a light bulb shaped paper clip and some little silver metal stars.
this one i used monkeys from a tiny barrel of monkeys that i have.  i love the way they shadowed.
