Another Morocco page for my newest travel album

Photoshop Elements 14

I used the Fotoblendz Overlay down the left side for my main photo, added the background (Artsy Paper # 1), then slid in the FotoInspired Template, clipping in my photos. I used only the top two-thirds of the template, then covered its edges with another photoI freehand-blended the djellaba on the right edge with multiply and screen blend modes, then layer-masked away unnecessary pixels with an Artsy Brush. I had a lot of raw edges, and that's where the Artsy Transfers saved the day, particularly at the lower left and lower right of the page. I finished up with a few layers from various flowers in the Multimedia Flower pack. At the end, I added a Postage Edge Overlay kind of as a symbol of me setting foot in North AfricaI never thought I would do that.

And...because sometimes I just can't let things go, and because the layout still looked flat to me, at the end I dragged in an array of paper textures and stains/spatters to add texture and transparency to my design (including giving that striped skirt and djellaba some wrinkles with a paper texture).
Love the story your pictures tell! I want to be there! The way you blended everything to create the look is wonderful!
 
Such exotic photos, love the combination of blended photos with a couple of fotoinspired frames. Great title and documentation!
 
It makes me uneasy but it is quite interesting and will bring back those memories for years. Love your journaling.
 
I just love everything on this page! I love the layout, the pictures, the colors, the decor, the artistic solutions! ... and the feeling!

I'm just repeating what Miki said, cuz she said it so well.

A photographic sampling of the culture! Great documentation!
