For the creative techniques challenge.
The techniques and stuff:
1. Merging photos (three different photos)
2. Stamps/brushes: WA from Sue Cummings (photographed in bw) loaded as brush, with a multi-color gradient.
3. Clipping mask: Anna Aspnes' ArtPlay Vitality Photoblendz, one used under the photos and one under a paper from Kitty Designs' Every day kit.
4. Blending: The merged photos were converted to b/w (action: B's Vanilla b&w II) and blended onto a paper from Anna Aspnes' Saffron Villa freebie (before the clipping mask step).

(Dd (8 yrs) came by and commented while I made this, and said that I had to have something on the right side of the lo "a little text you know, where it says that we are the greatest kids in the world. Or just some of those doodles - you know!" So text it is!)
