In the spring at the grandchildrens first visit, they set up and arrange the fairy garden. They plant pansies and violets, and then arrange the fairys accoutrements to their liking. The arrangements can be changed by each summer visitor.

Process:
In Annas class Anna Blendz 101, I learned to select the photos for my project more carefully. Also, am pretty sure that I have too many photos, but as Im not too fond of journaling I prefer to let the photos tell the story and just add a little note.

After I selected the pictures, I chose a number of papers which I blended and two elements. I especially like photo glows. I placed the transfer and put photo 1 over it. I left photos 2 and 3 on the base.

I masked each of the three photos and blended the edges using the inverted blending technique. Then I duplicated the third photo, on the left edge of the layout. I changed the opacity of the third photo to 42%.

The photo glows seem to go well with a fairy garden, so I placed one behind photo 2 and then duplicated it to place behind photos 1.

Any feedback or suggestions would be appreciated. Annas videos and her first pilot class are so helpful in learning the process.

Thank you for looking.
