Hi!

I had fun with this. I used crackle and sepia to make the picture look older. Then everything that could be crackled I crackled. I used that stars paper from the For the Love of Freedom. Unfortunately, for some reason, I couldn't crackle it. I used it anyway because I thought the color behind it made it pop a little more.

I still can't figure out how you are getting the images in these posts if someone wants to let me know how to do that!

Thanks,

Fran

Sorry this is a repeat...I don't know how to remove the other one and my attachment didn't work! ;( Sorry

I can't figure out how to paste the image in her if someone wants to help me with that. I don't have urls for my pics.

Anyway I used the crackle effect on everything that would crackle. I used the paper from the "For the Love of Freedom" it wouldn't crackle but I thought the color made the rest of it pop.

At first it would not attach but then I saw it was too large so I coompressed this like it was for web pages. It wouldn't print well but you can still view online okay. Do you ever do that?

Thanks!

Hope it is ok to change the colors of the embellishments. I wanted them to match the photo. Couldn't bring myself to add an effect to this photo so I added a window instead.

How do you change the color of the embellishments. Did you do it in a different program?

Please share!

Hello All,

Really wish I knew how to insert them.

But it is attached.
