Notes: Starting with solid paper 3 from APP Document, I brought in the mask brush from the kit and clipped the photo to it, resizing and positioning. I duplicated the mask and photo. Not worrying about proportion, I narrowed the mask and stretched it out to accommodate the whole photo. I positioned this clipping set below the original set in the layers panel. I blended the stretched mask to Hard Light.
I duplicated the first clipping set and placed the mask on Screen blend mode and I offset it a little by moving it to the left with the arrow keys.

Underneath the upper clipping set I used a retired different strokes brush in red along the right edge and created a circle with the Shape Tool over the set. I blended it to Vivid Light and reduced the opacity. Around the circle using the Marquee Tool I added a white stroke. Over these layers I added the frame from Document, sizing it to fit the original clipping set and underneath placed the warm glow over the photo, blending to Overlay and reducing the opacity to make the photo pop.

The quote was pasted into a text box and underneath the stain was added along with the scribble over the photo. The little labels were placed with a tiny drop shadow added and the dimensional elements from APP Metro Graffiti and the button threads to hold down the washer. That finished this page.
Love this, especially the quote. I didn't know Elvis was such a deep thinker!
 
Your chosen quote is paired beautifully with your art! Elvis had a wonderful, thoughtful, but quiet side to him, seldom spoken about.
 
Wonderful pairing of the quote and the image. Thanks so much for creating this page for the challenge, Barbara!
