Problem: Crazy Colors
design by Patricia Anderson.
Fix: Converting images to sepia tone
These photos of her daughter in a vintage hat proved a challenge for Kristy Nerness to scrapbook. The strong colors and too-in-focus background had her stumped. Patricia Anderson made
the process easier by removing color from the equation. She converted the photos to a sepia tone to match the vintage-hat theme, and she chose a soft palette of printed papers and fabric accessories
to complement the shots.
Tip: Patricia used Adobe Photoshop to adjust the color and contrast in the scanned prints, but you can do the same thing at a photo kiosk. Simply place your prints on the scanner bed and let the machine walk you through the adjustments.
