I stuff my FotoInspired spreads full, and in this case I stuffed it even fuller than usual because I wanted some red to travel across the spreadhence the use of the Linear Fotoblendz down the middle and the picture of the flag outside our hotel. I snuggled in a piece of wordART, recoloring it and adding a drop shadow and outer glow to make it pop just a little. I didn't need the frames in the Multimedia pack, but I do love the embellishments on the Patriarch set, so I just pirated those layers and scattered them across my composition. The background is the solid gold paper from the Patriarch Artplay Palette.
