Eternally 27

I thought my Mum was the most beautiful mum in the world and when I was young I used to ask her what age she was...she was always 27...it took me a while to realise that couldn't be right LOL!!! I've scrapped this pic before but I'm finally happy with this page! :)

This page is about going shopping with my Mum. A huge treat was a cafe called Serafini's where she would get a coffee in a glass cup (Wow!) and I would get an Ice Cream float made with American cream soda...On really, really special occasions we would venture to the back of the cafe where they served fish and chip teas...Oh the sheer decadence of it when you are four!

I masked the photograph then used a Watercolour brush to reveal the bits I wanted, focussing on figures, I changed the opacity of the brush so you can still see other shoppers in the background. I duplicated the photograph layer and changed the top layer to soft light. I then extracted the figures and duplicated another twice, changing both layers to Hard Light. I then layered various transfers and photo glows between the duplicated photographs; these were changed to either luminosity, colour or hard light mode.

Standing O! https://ozone.oscraps.com/forum/showthread.php?p=461915&posted=1#post461915
 
Can't stop marveling over the scrumptious color paired with the b/w photos! Congrats on the Standing O!
 
Wonderful memory. Love the journaling and how you used color, moving the other shoppers into the background.
 
I think it is wonderfully fun to scrap the same photo more than once. Love this Fiona.
 
Oh remember those days when we got dressed up to 'go to town'. I can remember my very first ice-cream soda. It was lime and my father shouted me. A real treat in those days.

And this is a wonderful page ! Love how you used colour to mask the background. Congrats on the SO. Well deserved!
 
What great and fun memories! So good to have those. Love how you scrapped your page. Beautiful color work against the black and white and I love how you did your journaling with all the different fonts.
 
Ditto what Chris said. I love the BIG dots of vibrant color and the black and white photo treatment.
 
Love the way you added color to your photo. I put some of those black patent mary janes on my granddaughter this morning, love them on your page!
