Working with old photographs, this project lends itself to sepia and earth tones

This card was designed to celebrate an 80th birthday. I started with a matted baby picture, an old snapshot and a couple of recent photos. I decided to make the card on a "natural" buff colored index stock. Then to compliment the paper I sepia toned the older pictures and chose a font color to match.


The baby picture was already matted with an earth tone mat but the picture was in black and white. To balance the colors, I sepia toned the baby picture to coordinate with both the matting and the paper.
