I am submitting this card to "Winter Wonderland" and "Cupcake Craft Challenge".
I chose a photo of my Dad and granddaughter Maddy that was taken at his 80th birthday a year before he passed away. Maddy referred to my Dad as "The Grandfather" and I thought this would be an appropriate Christmas card for this project. I took my photo and using Adobe Photoshop CS4, performed some magic by transforming a color photo in to a Sepia tone photo. I also changed the color of Maddy's dress and headband to match the original photo color, red...
I used one of my Spellbinders Nestabilities dies to cut out the photo and also a piece of metallic card stock. I used sandpaper on the edges to give it an antique look and also some of my Color Box Chalks for highlights. Two silk flowers and a brad finish off the card. I had a hard time taking a photo of a photo so I scanned my card and a holly background.
