Exceptional page Cheryl! As Angie said above, it is a lot more edgier and that it will certainly all depend on the photo that you begin with, as you mentioned. To give your photo a good start, always use your levels to give it some contrast and you can also use one of the sharpening tools as...

Well I am another one that just loves your results and actually really love the soft effect you achieved! Blending that photo into that lovely paper is simply brilliant and to my mind as the paper called for a softer grunge effect, so it is perfect! A 'harder' grunge would not have blended in...

Good advice Caro! It is suprising how many people will fall for these types of scams! A few years ago my FB was hijacked/scammed with a message sent out to all of my friends saying that I was in some holiday resort on holidays but had lost my wallet and could you please send "me" some money to...
