Hi, It was my beautiful Grandmother's 91st Birthday this week, and I thought this gorgeous vintage image may bring back some lovely memories for her.
To achieve this 'spotlight' technique - after colouring certain parts of the image with Distress Inks in Milled Lavender and Squeezed Lemonade, I cut an oval from the centre, backed it with a slightly larger oval, then realigned and attached. Mandy at Scrappy-Go-Lucky has a great range of these Vintage Images by Pion Designs. This one is from "Little Sweeties" - You can check them all out here.
Just a quick post from me tonight. It's late and I have a busy day tomorrow.
Thanks so much for stopping by.
Enjoy your week, Tereesa :-)
This is stunning Teresa. Just by adding a splash of colour and framing the image with a few simple cuts you have really made it pop. I am sure this will make your grandma feel sweet 16 all over again.
