Through the Viewfinder

Still playing with new techniques that I'm learning on Jessica Sprague's class. This technique simulates the practice of taking a photo with your digital camera through an apparatus that connects to the viewfinder of an old camera in order to get the "square shape", black frames, and other assorted vintage goodness. It turned out way cooler than I would have hoped!

How it works:

First, I desaturated the photo and gave it a sepia tone. Then I used FakeTTV_8 (free on Flikr) and the multiply mode and a brush from HOF3 Sampler Brushes. It was WAYYYY too easy.

I plan to upload some photos and post something new later tonight or tomorrow.

Happy Sunday!

Junque Shop Finds

Loving this Kodak camera, circa 1939-1949.

I was sick yesterday and am still not 100% today, but I WAS able to make it through 9 holes of golf. I just shouldn't have eaten dinner.... Anyway, rather than spend a lot of time taking photos, I decided to share my junque shop finds from Friday.
Nothing like a simple blue bottle to spruce the place up.

I bought 3 aprons. Yeah, I know-WHAT am I going to do with 3 aprons. Well-2 are for the studio and one looks pretty :)

Loving this vintage tablecloth. Yes, I am aware that it is too small for the table. I love it anyway.

And finally...a frame that I found that I used to create my inspiration board for Jenni Bowlin's class at Big Picture Scrapbooking. It turned out awesome!

Happy Wednesday!
