Notes: Starting with solid paper 2, I drew out the rectangles and square and clipped the photos to them. Underneath each photo using the paint strokes brush, I stamped down three shapes and clipped the chevron paper to them. Over each shape I stamped the San Francisco brushes, clipping one to the shape. I put a stroke around two of the photos. I played around with sizing and positioning until I liked it. I blended to couple of the rectangles to Color Burn and left another on Normal. I clipped a transfer to one paint stroke shape and resized.

All the photos were duplicated and put on different blend modes. The cable car copy is on Color Dodge, the dragon copy is Hard Light and the wharf copy is on Screen.

I added the city name, beveled and embossed with a tiny drop shadow and clipped a Harken artsy paper to it. The art stroke and splatter transfer were added to the top. Underneath the city name I placed the foliage element and blended to Color Burn. I roughly colored the lanterns with a PS brush and added the ribbon and title of the page. Then in the same area, I used the Chevron brush to extend the pattern beyond the paint stroke shape. That finished this page.
Love the pops of color throughout the page and chevron transfers! Gorgeous title work also!
 
Still working the geometric shapes-very cool! I love the brushwork on the white paint!
 
So much to love. The pops of vibrant color against the neutral background, made so interesting with the white stains, the red, and the wordART is just wonderful.
 
There's such a neat and dynamic flow to this, with everything grounded by those big brushes. That title is the cat's pajamas!
