The Process
Project Template Album 1_2 was selected. All layers were turned off except the frames and fotoblendz mask. Artsy paper 2 from APP Christmas Nostalgia was used for the background. The tree photo was clipped to the fotoblendz mask. Because it was a dark photo, it looked like a giant black hole again. So I changed the blending mode of the fotoblendz to color burn. I had the orignial Christmas card that was sent out that year with a photo of my sister and me on it. I clipped it to frame mask 2, duplicated it and then clipped the photo to frame mask 3. Another photo was clipped to frame 4. Transfers were clipped to frame 1.I began turning on the hidden layers, either coloring, resizing, moving or deleting them. Embellishments and word art were added to finish the page.
