Notes for Photoshop Elements 14

I worked with many duplications of two photos here, using solid paper #1 as a base and sandwiching the photo duplicates among artsy papers #1, #5, and #6. The artsy papers are designed with blocks of color, and I was trying to use the lines of those blocks to create the sense of the interior of a dance studio, which I did by going crazy with blending modes and then layer masks, to eliminate some of the weirder interactions of the papers with each other and with the photos. The various blending modes also had the effect of knocking out the backgrounds of the photos, so I could blend out the edges quickly rather than labor over full extractions. I used the Kreased Transfers and spackle brushes to reinforce the lines of the papers, and then put in the beautiful multimedia hearts for embellishment.
