I started with a background paper from ArtPlayMiniPalette Milestone.I layered brushed on stains,and overlays first.Next I imported my image duplicated three times. I used the brush,mask technique to mask out portions. Then on the next layers of the image,I changed the middle layer blending mode to screen and the top layer of the image to soft light.I added more stains on separate layers and the gold paint overlay which I used Cmd +B to adjust the color to a more brownish tone.The JazzedUpLoopDaLoops were placed,some layers were deleted and the fotoglow was enlarged. Transfers and overlays were used on the page beneath the image and above it,adjusting opacity as needed. I placed the button and MultiMedia Branches psd file to the right of the image,deleting some layers and resizing.The button was added to this cluster.I used font=Rat Infested MailBox to create my title.
