    Very, Very nice !! Apart from what has already been said I love the “noise” effect and the colouration which reminds me the 1960/70’s right back to my childhood ! (would love to know what you did)

    Keep up your good work !

  • Angel Warda replied

    Thanx so much.

    Ok let’s see…
    1st i filtered the photo with a sepia tint but not all the way sepia about 50% sepia.
    Then I layered my daughters photo with a clouds photo that i took(about 40% opacity)
    then i added an old paper effect to the layered image(about 85 % opacity)
    then i sepia tinted it again because the old paper effect removes a little bit of the sepia from the photo
    then i added a craquelure effect to the image
    finally i bordered it with a black border!

    by the way this is done with photoshop elements 6.

    hope it’s clear!!!
