Restoration_rs

Photo Details
Poster: scrapladyandmore  (see this users gallery)

Came across my wedding photo a few days ago...it definitely had aged and changed colors over the last 36 years. Was very pleased with the results of my computer editing. It looks like I remember from years ago...now if I could just remove the glasses! LOL! Font challenge seemed like a fun way to show the restored photo!
Journaling - I was heartsick when I saw my wedding photo; fortunately, a few clicks on the computer and it was completely restored!

I tis wonderful you were able to restore your wedding photo! I like your creativity in using the 1942 font to emulate the restortion process. Great layout.

You've done such a great job here. I love the restoration and the kit you have chosen is perfect. Very clever use of the challenge font, too. Well done.

Congratulations on this wonderful restoration although even the original has a certain charm. Carolīs kit was a good choice here. It has a timeless look to it and also the colours blend in well with both photos. Great work as always.

The original does have a sepia look to it with a little red/orange added. So, it wouldn't have been the end of the world if I couldn't fix it...my wedding color was actually peach so the original blended well with my bridesmaids! What was strange...the original has almost the same feel of a really aged newspaper but thicker.

I'm glad to have the color corrected and it was amazing how much correction I got just from clicking color auto fix. Now I can make it a true sepia with the click of the computer, too.

Thanks for everyone,s comments...both do go well with Carol's kit.
