My oldest Granddaughter Autumn often uses her younger sister as a model to hone her photography skills and this was one of those times. Their dog Barley wanted to get in on the photo shoot also. Why not, he's an important part of the family.

Process Notes: Using solid paper 2, I placed the fotoblendz, resizing and positioning, then clipped the photo down to it. Then under and over the photo I used a couple of brushes from Vintage Summer to border the photo on the left and bottom. I clipped different transfers to each of them with no blending involved. I resized the frame and placed it over the photo.
After placing transfers from both the palette and psd files on the page, I blended the right edge artsy transfer to Vivid Light at 74% opacity, which made it take on the color of the grasses in the photo. All the others I left alone. I added the flower brush below the photo and gave it a bit of a bevel and emboss. I also added a script brush that comes with the palette next to it at the right edge below the photo and over the transfer.
From there I added the scribble overlays and splatters from the palette. I love scribbles and splatters! I added the word art on the left over the transfer. I duplicated the frame and moved the copy over to the left side. The glow came next, blending to Overlay at 100% opacity.
Adding the stitches to lead the eye to the left, I added the flower over it along with a brad. I added the button and button threads over the frame on the left side of the page. I used the stitches as a line to place the names and date. And that completes another layout.
There really wasnt any fancy-smancy fiddling around with this layout. Pretty much everything was used out of the box so to speak. You dont have to do anything fancy with Annas supplies, they are beautiful just as they are.
