Creating the feeling of spring by using a gloomy day photo and adding my own colour.

Process: Created a background placing a Scenic template on the page and clipping an Artsy Paper to the template mask. Placed a Fotoblendz and clipped my photo allowing the colours of the Artsy Paper to glow through. Deleted template frames and added a postage frame. Duplicated my photo and clipped it to frame mask. Recoloured many layers with blending modes, fill layer and hue/sat adjustment layers. Lots of playing and experimenting with different tools - can't remember everything I tried or kept. Added Multimedia cluster and elements. Adjusted wordart and acrylic 'spring' word adjusted with Screen blending mode.
