				I hope someone can help me. I have search all over the net for help, but nothing. 
 
 
I have this old wedding photo of my mom. The only one she got left. But there are this stamp over it that say "proof"
 
 
I want to remove the proof and enlarge it before framing it for her.
 
 
 I have photoshop cs5 and have tried to 
 
1)  "fill- content aware" 
 
2)  "spot healing brush"
 
 
 but it doesn't look nice.
 
 
I will attach the photo and what I end up with... 
 
 
Please help.. and don't tell to contact the person who took the photo. It was over 45 years ago. 
 
 
Thank you.

				The clone tool is likely your best bet. Coupled with time and patience. Work carefully on a separate layer.
