Summing up our trip to the dahlia farm, a favorite photo of the farm with Mt Hood in the background and a few favorite farm and dahlia photos on the left, including me in the photo board (I love photo boards).
I always start with photos - I place the photos i want to include on the page and then decide what to do with them.
The Mt Hood photo is blended with an Ephemeral FotoBlendz. On top of that is blended another photo of the weather vane.
I used the Ephemeral Artsy Layered Template for the frames and background on the left, adjusting sizes.
Then I added Transfers and textures (with Beven and Emboss + Drop Shadow) and word art (divide mode) to fill the pages.
Both the butterfly and the bee have color and gradient overlays to form a coppery visual triangle with the weather vane.
Artsy Kard clipped to one of the frames, and MM 13 flowers added.
