On a trip to Colorado we took a small day trip to a old mining camp. We got to pan for gold and copper, and actually go in the mine to see how it worked from 150 years ago until the mine closed 50 years ago. My kids had a blast seeing how everything work, especially panning for "gold", The American Vintage Collection was perfect for this layout as our tour and experience was all about Vintage America!! My picture we nothing like what you see, the kids were all wearing all bright colors, and the mining hats and clothes were all bright yellow, they did not go at all with the colors of the papers. So I printed all the pictures in black and white (but this did not look good either) and instead of wasting more ink or money printing I used my chalk ink in a light brown and turned each photo in a vintage look by inking over the entire front of the picture, note to self to print in sepia next time!!
