Inspiration- I have recently been to the beach in the early morning and I always love taking pictures at the backwater area. Thought it worked with the APP Elysium
Start – Create a new document
Paper – Placed Solid Paper 3 and 4 over the background layer in that order.
Mask- Fotoblendz Overlay 13.3 I put over the papers.
Photo – I attached the photo to the mask using Layer>Create Clipping mask.
Transfers – Transfer 6 was placed on the edge of Solid Paper 3 with the Blend Mode set to Hard Light. The Artsy Transfer 3 I put on the right edge of the paper with Blend Mode set to Linear Dodge.
Elements – The string, butterfly, bloom, and leave were placed over the transfer. I clicked on the bloom thumbnail and then clicked on Select Pixels from the pop-up menu. Then I clicked on the string layer and with the eraser tool erased where the string went over the bloom – I repeated with the string shadow layer.
Brushes – Take Flight Brush I placed over the sky in the photo. Brush 10 was placed in the corner of the darker paper with opacity lowered to 75%.
Words – The wordart “Happiness is” was used for the title and I put a word transfer underneath.
