Process...
I started with ArtsyPaper No.2 from the mini palette. I added the photo on a layer above the paper and set it to darken. On a new layer above the photo and the artsypaper, using a solid round brush, I created a white circle and set it to Darken. I added an inner shadow to the circle to get the recessed look, then added the taped textures around the circle, masking out any part that covered the photo. I had to add a hue/saturation adjustment layer over the taped textures to get them to be the turquoise color, rather than gray. I added the fishing pole and desaturated it using another hue/saturation adjustment layer. The mermaid is from a retired APP. I added some additional brushes and transfers from the mini palette, placed the title and journaling, and called it done.

Thanks for looking and happy shopping!
Oh this is an amazing layout! Love the photo, and addition of the fishing pole! It tells that was a fun day. Thanks for sharing the process.
 
Love this extraction and how you created so much depth. And of course the fishing pole.
 
Nobody does blue like you...reminds me a bit of my mother, she too liked the sea, lakes,rivers and anything water.I have many memories of the fun, we too packed a lunch and spent so much time together.
 
Love the circle framing! Beautiful textures and blues! Love the mermaid!
 
LOVE, love, love this!!! I'm never sure whether your pages are real or a wonderful story you have woven around a photograph you have acquired. I do hope this beautiful lady is your mother and the story is real - it's magical! X
 
Amazing, love how the blue looks like water almost ready to encapsulate the family. And, what a gift from your Mothersharing her imagination in the form of a story.
