using the Making Memories Vintage Findings Collection that you can find
at Happy N Scrappin'
I used Adobe Photoshop to create my photo collage. Using Clipping Masks I added our picture and pictures of the map, menu from the restaurant and the world's largest Ralph Lauren store that I downloaded from the RL Web site. I printed as a one 8"x10" sheet of picture 8.5" x 11", trimmed it and adhered to my card stock.
Update: I forgot to add that my best friend Victor Torres (I call him Torres) is all about Ralph Lauren. I teased him about wanting to go to the Ralph Lauren restaurant on his 39th birthday. The joke was on me when he informed me that there was actually a Ralph Lauren restaurant in Chicago, so we celebrated his 40th the following year by traveling to Chicago and taking him to the restaurant. The windy city was not windy at all, it was sunny and raining. We had lots of fun! Love all the flowers and plants they have on the main road.
