Father

I have around five pictures of me with my Dad and this is one, a tiny 2 1/2 by 2 inch black and white grainy bleached out image circa 1956, rubbish quality but precious nonetheless!

Oh my goodness, this has been a page that has ended up bearing no resemblance to how it started, y'know when you just KNOW that something isn't working and then just go for it and play about! I originally wanted to include one of Anna's new MM keys but it just wasn't working for me... so move, rotate layers then delete, delete, delete :)

Difficult to remember my process as I've deleted and changed so much as I've gone along...I played about with the original image using curves to lighten but try and retain some definition, I then clipped to a fotoblendz and duplicated. Both layers are color burn, bottom layer 100% and top layer 48%. Behind are a selection of artsy transfers from AT brumal, AT Notabilia and AT Roots. I tried various papers for the background but finally settled on a paper from AP Family. Lastly is a word transfer...seems so easy now I write it but caused so much grief in the creation lol! - sigh!

Love how this turned out--the color burn blocking technique is Fab!! Great vintage-y bg and elements.
