Come celebrate National Photo month with us in WT689 Picture This! I'm the hostess and have provided a number of options. Hope you'll come play along!!
I've got a stack of old B/W photos and no idea who the people are. Bet you've got some too! I colored the photos with waterbased markers. It's a bit of a messy process and looks pretty ugly initially. Color an area, then wipe the color off. I found my fingers worked the best. The little one in the overalls looks full of mischief and I had the perfect sentiment. Adhered a vintage pp to the cardbase, added the lattice trim, photo and sentiment. TFL

Great challenge Carla! I love your card with those two cuties...and that sentiment works so well. I think you should make up stories about all the photos....pull the wool over everyone's eyes. lol

A perfect sentiment to go with your cute photo. I love the bg paper, lattice border and it's amazing how you colored your b/w photo. What a great card and challenge.

Your added colour looks great. I know we have old albums where some of the photos have been hand tinted, but I think older photo paper is a different baby altogether. Perfect sentiment, and a really cute, fun photo.

This is so cool....I remember the tinting of vintage photos. You captured that era perfectly. It's sad that many photos were not identified. Great sample for your fantastic challenge today. TFS
