Unlikely Places

Inspiration – I looked at the colors of this paper and tried to decide what would work for making a page. I have recently labeled all my photos with color in Lightroom all except the black and whites which I put in a collection. So I selected the photos I had labeled green and started looking. This picture of the tree in Acadia has always been a favorite so I selected it to make my page.

Start – Create a new file File>New 12x12 300

Frame – Placed Curled Paper Frame 1.4 on the page

Photo – I attached the photo to the mask layer of the frame using Layer>Create Clipping Mask. This is an old photo so the editing I did to it was a long time ago and I can’t remember what I did the only adjustment I made this time was playing with Highlights/Shadows.

Paper – I added Artsy Paper 4 over the background layer. Then moved the photo/frame until it was in the spot that worked best.

Elements – Multimedia Flowers 12.5 was put over the photo/frame. I then used Ctrl U to adjust the color of the flower to more of an orange to match the colors in the paper. I then placed the tag over the flower stem again using Ctrl U to adjust the color to a deeper orange.

Brushes – Brushes 2 and 7 were used on the page with a blue-green.

Words – I used word art Unlikely Places to which I added a stroke. Then I typed a quick paragraph about trees growing. Lastly, I put where the tree picture was taken and on what day.
Gorgeous glimpse of Acadia! One of my favorite NP. Love the placement of the MM flowers.
 
Love the lighting in the photo and it's beautiful with the mm flowers and the color bleed at the top.
 
Love Acadia! The background really sets off the photo. The mmElement looks really great there--like a natural outgrowth.
