I used black and white photographs tinted with Vintage Photo - what else? The pad I got from the workshop is rather a different more reddy Vintage Photo to the one I already had.
Here are all the tags as they arrived home, so I did do quite a bit on the day warranting the extremely inky fingers.
I made 2 physical updates to the book.
1) I lined both of the backs of the covers with an acetate tag. The front for strength as the metal bits are rather heavy, and the back one for protection when the book is put down.
2) I filled out the spine with cardboard spacers. One either side of the kraft tags so 10 in all.
I got rather nifty with my new mini attacher and attached all the photographs with it! Also the tape tie is attached at the back so it doesn't get lost.
So, without further ado, here are the photos of all the pages. I have made them small for the main page but you can click on them to get the big version should you wish.
Oh my, what a project, and such a wonderful memento of a great day.
