I've been wanting to try some of the faded photo effects I've been seeing in the aA gallery, so I worked with two recent photos of my grandson to experiment. Doing chores at not-even-2! Well done, young man! This layout features the DeFacto Collection...

Thanks!

Jumping for joy over here! Thanks so much!
