I'm sadistically working on 3 year-end projects - 1) a continuation of my summer "Beach Life" project, 2) a "Past & Present" look at my daughter and grandson, and 3) Documenting December.
This page is for my Beach Life book, and perfectly fit the Dec 1 prompt about Looking Back.
This tells a story of the origin of my beach life dream, pulls in a scrapbook page I made in 2012, and a quilt I made about this story and recently brought back from my Portland house to hang in my bedroom in LA.
I started with a photo of my bedroom. No matter how I arranged it, good parts of the photo would get chopped off in the center. So I cut it apart and expended it (you can see the repeated plants). Blended this with Relative FotoBlendz.
I extracted the quilt part of the photo, repeated it and made it larger and in Hard Light mode.
Then I took an ocean photo and blended it right on top of my bed, Hard Light.
In included the 2012 Scrapbook page, and added Papers and Transfers from the palette used for it (ArtPlay Seafoam!) I pulled out the photo part of this page (I still have the psd files!) for balance. Added some elements, brushes and journaling. Unfortunately, I can't find room on the page to reproduce the 2012 journaling, which I am sure is not readable, but maybe I can include it on another page in this book.

At first glance it looks like you documented a flood in your house and I thought, how can you scrap a nightmare so beautifully.
I am relieved that you are depicting a lifelong dream of yours.
