This was an odd photo of my daughter in front of a pile of trash, but I liked her smile and hat and so I decided to make a Life Page about exits and entrances. Because my daugher's foot was chopped off in the picture, I decided to start from the bottom of the page and work upward. I made a cluster of the photo, frame, ribbon, and button, dabbing away bits and pieces with layer masks so everything was layered logically (and the harsh edge of the top of the photo was hidden), then slid the flash card from the Artplay Palette underneath as a matyou can't see the numerals of the flash card, just the edges. Then I made the wordart cluster and stacked it over the photo cluster. The overlay is just the photo flipped, then blended into the background (Jollification Solid Paper #5), on overlay mode.

To jazz up the page with texture, I used Artsy Transfer #1 on the right edge, feathering out the hard edges with a layer mask and Artsy Brushes. Then I pulled Artsy Transfer #5 above that along the top edge to darken the top of the page. I then put Artsy Transfer #2 on top of that, for even more texture (and gold).

The last touches were slipping in the owl, to symbolize wisdom, and scattering a few little numbers at the bottom.
love this. adore the two photos and how they compliment each other even though they are the same. and for you it's a "white space" design.
 
I also think it looks like an illustration for a book about a strong woman. Gorgeous page!
