momentousangel Posted May 8, 2005 Share Posted May 8, 2005 I have to get down the photo I just hung up on the wall and scan it for this one. Anyone know best settings to scan an 8x10 at? It's the only copy of this photo that still exists, so I just gotta use it, lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
momentousangel Posted May 9, 2005 Share Posted May 9, 2005 Okay, now that I had to redo it twice, The first one I did a huge boo boo and didn't save my work as I went, anyhow, here it is.

Shai Posted May 9, 2005 Author Share Posted May 9, 2005 Ladies, you're doing brilliant! I can just sing PRAISE PRAISE PRAISE for all the work that's been done and being done for Moms' all over the World! DeeZee has a sweet card that she's sending to her Mom [url="http://scrapgirls.com.ipbhost.com/index.php?act=module&module=gallery&cmd=si&img=1834"]DeeZee's LO[/url]. You, also, get to see Dee 'toofless'! Breedeen's picture of her Mum is from 20 yrs. ago. It's brilliantly soft and colorful ... and a smile to brighten any rainy UK day! And you all know how I ooooh and awww over smiles! mwmhansen's two LOs just take your breath away! The first of her niece seeing her son for the first time. How many of us have such a precious and loving moment? Her second shows her Mom was a little girl. Yet, that's not the part that makes you smile so bright ... it's her own poem for her Mother. Bridget's LO is of her Mum as a teen with loving words to describe her I always love those types of LOs. Oh! We have a new LO (as I type)! Valerie has a LO of the only picture she has of her Mother in her younger years in lovely pink, white and red! I always think of Valentine's and Mothers with those colors. Pretty pretty!! Where's mine? Well, I am going to cheat on my first LO and place one that I made a bit ago. It's not older than March Other than that, I plan on making a Three Generation with my Son, Mom and Grandmother (I'm, also, trying to get some other LOs done for my Calendar LO) I can't wait to see what else is in store for us!! All my best! Shai Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd encourage you to do a LO on your friend's Mom, if you wanted ... :: I am toning down my abstractions since I can get a bit carried away LoL :: ok, how about your Mom's Mom's best friend's Mom ... GO FOR IT .... Anyone or any mention of Mother would be aprropriate in my book! Remember, if you don't have a picture, you can STILL do a LO! Poems, stories (rambles are my forte) or whatever you like ... I'll always encourage you to look outside the box, too Since I am wiggling my ... man, why can't I get away from feet talk?? ... toe out there, too!

That was 4 years ago, I think, and a move to England that made her change her mind BIG TIME! LoL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
