Title: Restore and colour, GG-GF please
Post by: alanasays on Tuesday 30 March 10 08:32 BST (UK)
Hi everyone,

Just wondered if there was anything you could do for my dear old Great, Great Grandfather Arthur. We were wanting to pop this one in a frame as it's such a good picture of him.

It would be much appreciated!
Thanks in advance

Alana  :)

Hmm, well I would say mine was rubbish compared to yours Carol, beautiful work as always and very tastefully finished, also with your "trademark" borders as only you can do them!  8) 8)

Wow!  :o These have really blown my expectations out of the water! I love them all!

Thank you so much Carol, Irene, Caz, Rachel, Mike.
I couldn't have asked for anything better.
Now the hard thing will be to decide which one to pop in a frame! :D

All your hard work is really, really appreciated.
Thanks a lot everyone!
