This photo was taken by my granddaughter Autumn of a row of cottages in Cirencester, England last July. Very much an enchanted, fairytale kind of place. My family said they didnt see a living soul, but they heard the sound of televisions coming from the cottages.

Notes: I gave the photo an Orton Effect, then brought it into a new 12 x 12 file. I used artsy paper 4 as the background. Adding a reverse layer mask to the photo, I brought it in with various AnnaBlendz brushes at different opacities. These are some of my work horse brushes that I always use.
Grouping a couple of transfers, I brought those in underneath the photo on both sides of the page, reinforcing the framing of the photo. I didnt use all of the bits and pieces of the transfers and some were moved slightly. I did more blending of the photo using the reverse layer mask. I also placed the art stroke from the Palette just above the background layer.
Word art was placed around the page along with some staining and brushes from the palette tucked in here and there discretely. A paper texture brush was placed next to the crease of the background layer and the place and date typed on the opposite side of the crease.
The title was blended to Color Burn and using the Blend Ifs to fade it more into the background underneath. The threads and button was added to finish the page.
