A glamourous granny needs a makeover
« on: Friday 09 November 07 12:45 GMT (UK) »
Hi guys

I have this photo of my gran that I am going to add to my scrapbook for my parents and my sister suggested it could do with a bit a clean and tidy and I said I knew just the people who can help.  :)  She also wondered what it would look like with a bit of colour?

Thank you

Thanks Tracy and Woodentop

It is a lovely picture.  I wasn't convinced it was my gran, the other pictures we have of her are not so glam.  But as your picture downloaded Wooden I realised I was looking into my sister's eyes.   :o :o 

She must be related!!
