Create your own photo props with Jessica Griffin

One of my favorite hobbies is photography. I've recently started photographing newborns but found it's a very expensive hobby to keep up with, much like paper crafting! I really like incorporating a solid color into each photo, having Lindy's Stamp Gang sprays really helps me add variety to my bucket of props, with out costing me a fortune. 

I started thinking about the several ways I can use my LSG products and remembered I have a bunch of Dritz Cheesecloth! I started by putting the Cheesecloth in a bowl of cold water, just to rinse it out, wash it off. Really, just to saturate it before adding the color. Once the cheesecloth is saturated, I added my choice of color to the bowl of cold water. Usually I determine the color I'm going to use, by matching it to the props I'll be using. 


If I'm using a blanket, I'll put the colors on the blanket to see what matches best.  


The green I choose matched the ornaments perfectly! I had originally picked the green based on the blanket, but, it looked so great with the ornaments, I couldn't pass the opportunity for a Christmas shot. Especially since this little guy IS a Christmas baby! 

How do you use your Lindy's Stamp Gang products?

Thanks for stopping by!
