Process: I started with an artsy paper from ArtPlay Palette Family. I placed my photo (Sierra Nevada in Spain) on the left side and changed the blend mode to Color Burn. Then I added four brushes from Mountain High No 1 together on the right side and duplicated these. I did a mask for the photo and erased parts of it on the right side with a brush with low opacity. The paper I used as the background had a dark part in the upper left corner so I decided to use the Clone Tool and clone parts from the right side over to the left. My photo got lighter but I wasnt satisfied so I did adjustment layers for Curves, Hue/Saturation and Channel Mixer and used the masks for the adjustments. On the right side of the layout, I mixed the Clone Tool, Eraser Tool, Brush Tool and Dodge Tool, to have it work together with the rest of the page. I also did adjustment layers for Curves and Hue/Saturation on this side. I used a brush from ArtPlay Palette Family and placed it on the photos mountain face. The brush got the effect Bevel & Emboss and a drop shadow to look like one of the belays. A texture from Spackle Textured No. 3 was placed on the mountain at the right side of the layout. I finished the page with the title from Mountain High WordART No 1.
