Hey, Lori, that is neat. I really like what you did with this image. Makes me think of when I was a kid at the beach with my parents. That was a l-o-n-g time ago.

Thanks, Vi. I was watching coverage of the D-Day memorial this past weekend and became intrigued with the old photos that were presented Of course, I chose a happier theme with this photo.

Your aging technique makes the photo seem to be from everyone’s past. Brings back many wonderful memories. Thanks.

how did you get the crinkled paper effect, I think that’s great and really adds to the aged effect

It’s really easy. I found an image of crinkled paper. I selected a portion of the image and copied it. I pasted it as a layer over my beach image. Then on the layers palette, I selected the layer containing the paper image, then changed the blending mode of the layer to overlay. Voila.

This is spectacular Lori. I am most impressed with the aging of the piece. It is really effective.
