Breakfast at Tiffany's

So today I have been having lots of rest (erm...... apart from the very quick trip out to buy myself a wamcom Bamboo - Sssshhhhh) Anyway... I was looking through some  photo's of my middle daughters Prom.

She looked so beautiful and one photo reminded me of Audrey Heburn in breakfast at Tiffany's (one of my all time favourite films) So I dug out a photo, and then tried to mach the photo of my daughter to it.

The fact that Beckii is sticking her tongue out, captures her personality. Until recently she wouldn't be seen in anything other than a pair of skinny jeans and a hoodie :)

I have turned it grey scale, then removed all the background (which was a car park full of  girls all waiting for the limo) I aimed to make this very simple and elegant in keeping with the film style. I quite like it  and  hope my daughter does too.

I entered another challenge today and was then pointed at another challenge this latest LO might fit into so am putting it into the movied themed challenge at Lasting memories Layout Challenges.

    Hi catherine, yes, am quite rough at the moment so have not a lot else to do but rest up.... at least this scrapbooking is getting the brain cells working. :) I have played a little with the tablet and pen but my daughter has spotted it and I will have to hide it!
