METHOD:
I used the multi-mask technique ( tutorial here: http://annaaspnesdesigns.com/video-multimasking-with-fotoblendz/ ) on my photo and blended 2 photos into one. I added the wood Textures over the top and deleted the parts over Dad and Tom to make it look like they were part of the tree (a Ghost Gum - the most spectacular of all Australian gum trees). I added the multi media Branches and one of the Artsy Transfers from Autumn Rust before adding the title and date.
