Scanography edge effects

I used this edge effect on both my 8x10 and 4x6 prints.  I deleted the contents and used white as the color, then used the history brush to paint it back.  I scanned a necklace of mine in a dark room to get good color, and then I used a Pseudo HDR action in Photoshop.

And here are the images it took to get the final blend.

I took the pens and used them as my background, then I used the quick select tool and selected each of the objects and moved them into the picture with the pens.  I flipped the pens to be horizontal, and then I used the typing mask tool to write school because all of these things remind me of school.

Pennies - July 12, 2010,  Rexburg, Idaho, 10:58 PM, HP Scanner

I thought it would look cool to arrange pennies on top of my scanner.  However, I ran out of pennies so I cropped the photo.  This one was more of a fun one for me, I liked the way it turned out!

Perfume - July 13, 2010,  Rexburg, Idaho, 10:41 PM, HP Scanner

I placed all of my perfume bottles on top of the scanner to see how it would look scanned.   I wish I had thought of it at night when I had done all of my other scans because the light kind of washed out the color on some of the bottles.  But I still think it looks cool.
