This is a photograph of my Father, his two sisters, and a nephew. It was taken years before I was born, so it is so different to see these 4 family members long before I was around. I love the adorable little hat and shorts outfit.

The process: I began with a neutral background paper. I layered it with the chevron paper, changing its blendmode to divide, and applied to mask to blend a portion of it away. I placed two ArtzyKards, and then placed the photograph overlapping the two artsykardz. I masked portions of the photograph. I added a 4x6 artsykardz from roots under the other two cards, but turned off the background layer, so only transfers were visible. I played around with some of the blend modes of these transfers. I also added the hipster plumes behind the kardz, changing the color and blend modes. In addition, fotoblendz were added on top of the background paper, changing their color and blend mode to darken the area around the photo just a bit. I added a text background overlay, on top of the background paper, and blended all but the bottom 1/3 out. I placed elements in the lower right, applying shadows to all. I added the skinny lined overlay, changing its color and blend mode to soften it a bit, and then added the tree brush. I added a fotoglow from the Roots Sampler, changing its hue just a bit to warm it up.
