Photoshop Elements 14

I started my layout by selecting Artsy Paper #2 as a base and blending my photo into it using my favorite Artsy Blending Brushes. I added the word art, Beaded Threadz, and frame (on multiply blend mode), journaled, and then used the brush set to add a few detailsI used one brush to suggest a shadow under my grandson's arm, and two more (round shapes) to give a sense of the rattle shaking. Additionally, I added color to the right and bottom of the layout with dark blue brushes, to match the artsy paper, duplicating the brushes and changing the blend mode to color burn. PS: Sunglasses added by my son in Photoshop
