I couldn't decide among the artsy papers because I loved them allthe patterns and the texturesso I used four of them. I started with paper #2 as the base, then blended in my photos with layer masks and blending modes. On top of and under the photos I dragged in the three other papers, layer-masking away what I wanted to conceal, and cycling through all the blending modes to see what parts of the papers jumped out and were worth preserving.

After I achieved my basic composition, I added the Word Art. I found myself enamored of the Warp Type Tool after Anna's WordART class, so I did the rainbow with an Arch Warp at a +29 bend and 17 vertical distortion (Ebrima font), and then clipped on an artsy paper for texture and added a layer style. The chasing is Elephant A Regular, fuzzed up by the remains of an Artsy Paper over it.

I finished up this layout by plunking all of the Multimedia Leaves in a bouquet at the left and fastening it with a big brad, then adding some blue stains to match my daughter's jeans. The free-use internet birds and CineFilmOverlay went on last.
Love the colors and texture, I think there are 3 rainbows, so creative, awesome!!
 
Amazing light in the photos. I love the color scheme and very much admire her courage.
 
Laura, your process notes are fun to read...words/phrases like 'plunking' and 'fuzzed up' make me smile! Loving the warped title art!
 
Wonderful journaling--you have the most adventerous family! Love your notes--always insightful as to how this is accomplished.
 
i think i like your "light" layouts more than your darker ones. love the flow in this one. and, of course, your title!
 
I adore the blending of the photos together, they are sweet! The textures in the background from the papers are fabulous as is your leaf bouquet. And I agree, your notes as well as your journaling are always fun to read. Always so many layers of goodness.
 
Love the rainbow and how the title arches. Wonderful colors, textures and light!
