Photoshop: Restoring Old Documents and Actions

Hi,

I just finished with an old marriage certificate that I found.  I used many actions to get the end results.  I had to lighten up the image with desaturation, then sharpened up the image, then added a white background layer and used an eraser to try to erase the dark areas.  Then I transformed the image using a Sepia Filter, added a wood frame.

Original:


Finished image.  I moved the hue up a little to give it a "green" effect instead of the "copper" effect of sepia.
