operation 44: PRETEND

this was a fun one! i knew right away what i wanted to say for this paper adventure topic. one of the reasons i spend most of my time at family gatherings playing with the nieces is that we genuinely do have an awful lot in common...maturity level, for one thing! :)

all i needed was a recent photo...a little computer-generated text...some alphabet stickers...et voila!

(picture of nieces (l to r) maddie, lindsay, cousin jillian & riley converted to high contrast b&w in photoshop & printed on kodak premium paper; text is "3 hour tour" formatted & printed in broderbund printshop; patterned paper: sei; letter stickers: basic grey; pen: zig)

text reads, "the only thing i ever really PRETEND to be is a GROWN-UP (luckily these guys are not fooled for a minute!)"
