The story

I have always really loved this photo of my mom and dad from Easter 1983, but it had terrible color and extreme shadows and highlights. I have color corrected and tweaked it a few times over the years, but I had not printed it to scrap because I was never happy with the results.

Then I recently realized that converting it to black-and-white might camouflage some of those problems, making it good enough to print. BINGO!

Product/technique notes

I created this page with three of the patterns from the AdornIt Chamberry collection, which I have been hoarding for too many years awaiting the right photo. The glitter Thickers title, hand sewing, and punched butterflies are all I thought it needed to complete the look.
