Inspiration – I am busy with my photobook so I decided simple is better. So I chose the Artsy layer template. For pictures, I looked through my pictures keyworded Christmas.
Start – Artsy Layered Template 304.
Paper – I placed Solid paper 3 and 2 using a multiply blend mode so that I got a darker green.
Layers of the template – I used Edit>Fill to add color to the stain layer that was still black.
Photos – I place the pictures in the two frames using Layer>create clipping mask. I attached Artsy Paper 1 over the mask.
Elements – MM Holly 1.4 was placed just over the picture on the left.
Words – the word art “Trim the Tree” I used for a title. I added a white stroke to it.
