Process: This layout began with Annas beautiful solid paper1 and a photo. I dragged the fotoblendz mask, stain, fotoglows and evergreen brushes from the Holiday Template Album page 3 as well as a transfer from page 4 and a texture from page 2 onto my page. I placed transfer 2 in the bottom right corner, using a layer mask to blend it into the paper. I copied the mask, clicked the add a layer mask and pasted it on the mask. Then I adjusted it with brushes and glows to fit my photo. Next, I recolored the brushes and arranged them below the stain. For the journaling mat, I used transfer 8, masked out parts and added a hue/saturation adjustment layer so that it fit with my photo. I duplicated transfer 8, rotated it and moved it to the top right corner. For interest, I placed parts of MultiMedia Winter1_2 below my journaling. I added the tree charm, masking out parts so that it looked like it hung from the red ribbon. To repeat the red, I duplicated a brush and bead from the Holiday Album Templates. I added the word art, masked out the word this and replaced it with heart to fit my journaling. I finished by adding artstroke 2 just above the paper.

Thanks for looking!
