Thank you. I don’t know why I find that so hard to remember. Appreciate your response. D.
Scott…that’s such a cute idea. My brother has a birthday coming up….I may have to think about how to do something similar for him. I like Valerie’s pretty filigree stocking too. Much to be inspired by in this contest.
I combined the leaf pattern script with the fringe tubes, and created the gradient from colors of the fringe.

At least, with the next game, the “z” should be pretty easy.
I accidentally tagged the blog instead of my individual post. I tried to fix but I don’t know if I succeeded. Sorry. Dianne, the problem child
I used a bit of this and that.

Here’s something that actually worked well for some of the pages….I just went to Adjust – One Step Photo Fix. Now that is the lazy person’s path, I realize, but on some of the pages that were mostly faded ink, it worked quite well. On some of them I went back and applied one or two of the presets and my brother seems pretty happy with the results. Which is all I really care about. 🙂
The actual document looked like the top scan with my dithering being on the bottom. I’ll try your Curve-Level-Fill-clarity. I don’t think I’ve ever used Fill-clarity for anything. Maybe saving the settings as presets would work for me. I guess this is the document to practice on. Thank you!! Dianne
That’s a good idea. I have several hundred of these pages so I have plenty to practice on. 🙂
I’m not going to say I’m very adept at this but the top image is the original scan. By using adjustment layers, I tried to bring out some of the pencil and red. I was trying to retain some of the original coloring which is why I didn’t go for black and white, which might have been a little clearer. I may still do that where there is no red on the page. I’ve never done this kind of thing before so I am afraid my results are rather crude.
You can delete the images once you looked at them (or you can tell me how I can. They have no archival use.
