Process
- I built my background first by placing 4 different Artsy Transfers Chills, moving layers around, then I put a paper behind and adjusted the color to be more blue.
- Clipped my main reflection photo to a paint layer of one of the Artsy Transfers Chills, then duplicated the photo 3 more times, with lowered opacity, to 'spread' the tree out on the page.
- placed another photo of the real tree in a urban threadz frame
- added embellishments in the upper right and lower left, then used some warm glows for more warmth and light
- finished with journaling and the 'Glory' word art. I used AT Chills again, merged to a single layer, and clipped to the word art.
They are somewhat common but what is uncommon is for someone to notice them and see the magic of them. Your page conveys that magic. Love the sky blue.
 
Beautiful page! Love the brown and blue palette. I'm reminded of a bookshelf I saw once. It was the skeleton of a largish tree branch painted black and with a few glass shelves resting on it. I think it was stood from the floor and splayed across the wall. Such a nice idea I thought.
 
So you found not money, not trinkets, but a visual treasure. Love those aHA! moments. Beautiful page with that strong central title, and I do love the journaling. ("Detritus" is such a good word!)
 
Creativity is seeing what others might not see! Love your Upside down tree page!
 
Lots to look at on this page and the photo is stunning!! Remarkable photo!
