With the many lights of the season it's particularly fun to play with BOKEH. Bokeh is a word which is derived from Japanese which means "out-of-focus." My daughters found a fun site called Color Me Katie. Both her blog and this wonderful YouTube link below show you step-by-step instructions for creating your own bokeh shape.
I played around with it and these directions from YouTube were super simple. Once you get the hang of it, it's easy and fun. I like the way Bryant Truong designed this so you can interchange shapes rather than making a whole fitted cover for each shape.
Here's an example of what I did, do you see the tiny sparkles in heart shapes - appropriate for this gift?
I also played around taking photos of the moon and the planet right next to it. It happens to be the planet Venus, appropriately named after the Goddess of Love.
Next I took photos of our Christmas lights (or do I need to be politically correct and say Holiday Lights?) and got this image:
