Cheating with another photo from Day 13. I was lazy and didn't take any photos today as I was too busy playing around with the ones from yesterday.

And talk about playing around, I got a little border crazy with this one. I just started experimenting and came up with this. Might be something to refine.

My husband and youngest equal two of my three sliciest slices of life. With title props to the talented Mr. James Taylor. :)

Added details for the border:
I wanted something different so I googled grunge borders and came across this site: kirupa.com grunge border

I followed the steps there and applied it to my photo but it didn't quite have the effect that I was looking for so I elaborated by erasing away more with a variety of different grunge brushes that I had in my arsenal. And that was pretty much it. Thanks for all the comments. :)

Erin! That's AWESOME!!! I LOVE that border. How did you do it?? Do you create it on your own with overlays and stuff? Or is it something you downloaded?

The photo itself is so beautiful! It captures the kind of moment you want to remember forever. . .and has that glamorous touch that makes the memory even more magical.
