Process:
I processed the photo by duplicating it and then blurring the top layer. I then erased portions of the blur to reveal the areas I wanted clean. Warm and Cool Glows are applied for added light and depth. I then clipped another copy of the photo layer to a fotoblendz and placed it below the framed photo layer to extend the image and maintain the soft feel.
The background variation in blues is created by the fotomasks from ArtsyLayered Template No.82 with blue paper from AP SocialNetwork clipped to each mask.
I also added and recolored a transfer from AP Social Network to support the green of the shrubs in the photo.
I completed the page with a loop, buttons, lace transfer and two edge overlays.
so lovely, and I so love that message, one I feel I have learned recently, and wish I could teach to others ;-) Thanks for the explanation of how you achieved this soft look.
