Nice challenge. Thank you Sepiana. In PSE I applied Diana Days Pastel Sketch action I applied a photocopy filter to a duplicate of the original image and placed it above the Pastel Sketch with the blend mode Multiply applied. Created a stamped layer and took that into Topaz Studio where I applied the Antiques and Memories filter from the Impression section. Frame by Jodi.  |

Used a FotoSketcher watercolor filter on the subjects and then took it into PSE to apply an artistic, film grain watercolor filter. Placed the result on a Morgue-file vintage red book page I had prepared with nostalgic flowers by Renee and a H.S. Rice poem.  |

Took the image into Smart Photo Editor where I applied the Golden Morning Glow effect by Tony. Back in PSE I added the other items all from the Mother Love Collection by The Hungry Peg. What would we do without our mothers? To Mothers everywhere...  |

Interesting edit, fotofrank. It's like they are woven together...I like that implication. |

Used Sepiana's sketch action on my original edit. Followed up with a preset in On1. Sadly don't remembers which one.  |

Lillias, the elaborate combo of techniques you used resulted in an eye-catching image. Great choice of frame -- it matches the image colors. |

An emotion-laden image! |
