Took my initial edit and applied a Lineart filter from GMIC . To that I added a gray solid colour fill layer at 80% opacity. Added a grunge frame from All-Free-Download.com and completed the composition with a film frame from Hiclipart. Used the initial edit as the background at a reduced opacity of 50% on top of a white BG layer.

Thanks for waking up this sleepy challenge, Lillias. You may have given me an idea of something else to try.

Page curl using AV Bros plugin. Reduced the overall saturation. Board background is a Xara fill.

Took me a minute to find the page curl, mart44! Definitely thinking "outside the box" on this one. Nice to see you supporting all of our forum's challenges.

Here is my second take after the basic raw conversion. Cropped with content aware to give a tad more sky at the top Applied the Redfield Quadpencil filter with the "Le BigMac" preset. (A strange name for a preset, but it really exists!) Transparency set to 85%. Applied a Jixipix chromatic edges border. Kind regards Chris
