Create Coloring Pages From Photos
July 28th, 2011 PrintHere’s a fun coloring project with a twist. Transform your digital photos into coloring sheets using Picnik. Why not create a family coloring book? Or document your summer fun and trips in coloring book format. My kids especially love to use colored pencils to color in these pictures since there’s a lot of detail.
