Tinted Photo

Although I've been trying to keep up with your posts, I haven't posted in awhile because I was busy making cards (mostly Easter) and had no time to post them. I just couldn't wait to get back to my heritage pages.

I broke the cardinal rule of heritage pages and used the original photo for this page, which is one of me when I was about three or four years old. It is one of the hand tinted photos which were popular in the 1940's before we had perfected the science of color photos. I also have the original B/W copy of this photo, but I wanted to use this one because of the beautiful soft colors (except for the red lips). Perhaps because it is hand tinted and/or because of the moiree pattern, I was unable to make a good copy and decided to use the original.

I used a combination of Anna Griffen and Kaisercraft Prickled Pear patterned papers. The lace is from Tresors de Luxe and the beautiful butterfly was made by Renea.

I'm hoping it won't be this long before I post again. Thanks for looking.
