This is a photo of my beautiful Mother taken in 1941. The title I chose is from a song I love called “You Should Have Seen It in Color”. It’s about b/w photos and an old man is telling his story through the photos and he says “you should have seen it in color”. For the April Stamp It Baby Contest, I decided to experiment and was very happy with the results. I have a lot of rubber stamps that I love, so I decided to try scanning the image of the stamps for my LO. For the big stamp (bottom left of page) I put the wooden side of the stamp on the scanner glass and scanned it in gray scale. I then made it transparent a placed the cream color paper behind it. The image of the woman’s face I did the same way, but didn’t do a transparency.
