Process:
I used the template pretty much as is--in fact, it took me more time to fuss with the embellishments than it did to clip the photos to the masks and create the background (two solid papers from the Wild Autumn Artplay Palette blended on overlay). I recolored the stains, did the journaling, added the title, and then the embellishments. I'm trying to scatter John Muir quotes throughout the album, because I love his wilderness writing.
