Share your favorite scrapping tricks.
One of favorite things to do when I'm scrapping a page is to edit a photo to give it a vintage feel to use with a vintage style kit.
Technique: I duplicated my photo layer and applied a sepia tone filter to the second photo layer. Then I used a 30% opacity eraser and swiped it across the photo. Then I used it again over the brighter colors of the photo like the reds and blues in her flower and dress. I then used a paper from my chosen kit and placed it on the top of my layers and to use it as a texture and swiped the 30% opacity eraser over the paper until desired effect. Finally I took one of the word art overlays in the kit and placed it on the photo. I merged the layers and then scrapped my page.
