The Process
Project Template Album 1_7 was selected. All layers were turned off except for the fotoblendz mask and frames. Artsy paper 3 from APP Sparkle was used as the base. A very poor quality photo (gray and out of focus) was clipped to the fotoblendz mask, duplicated with the blending mode changed to screen (reduced opacity). A foto glow was placed above the photos with the blending mode changed to hard light to give the photo a warmer glow. An image of the bride doll (from the internet) was clipped to the frame masks showing just the face and bouquet. The same foto glow was layered over the images to give the doll a softer look. Transfers from APP Bliss were clipped to the other frame masks. Word art, embellishments, a MM tree, sprinkles were added. One by one I turned on the hidden layers, either recoloring, moving or deleting them.
