Photo: Mine

Process Notes: After turning the photo to Black and White, I brought it in on solid paper 4 and blended the photo into it on Color Burn.

Using the Living Well brush, I stamped the dancer and duplicated it three more times to bring it out more. The first two layers are white and the other two layers are yellow. With the arrow keys, I moved the white layers down and to the right.

Placing the png MM Umbrella, I used the Spin Blur filter on it to give it movement. Getting the word art for the title I recolored it to yellow and duplicated it and placed the little word label under it.

From there I added texture/stain elements from the artsy layered template as well as artsy transfers, overlays from the palette, and the bokeh. These were placed around the edges of the page. Some were blended and some had brightness/contrast adjustments used on them.
