Oktoberfest 2017 is officially over and done. It was a relatively mild one for a change . . . thank goodness. And I am grateful I work with a great crew! This is another photo I took of a head in The Hat Shop window as I pass by in the morning to the bakery for my coffee and pastry.

Notes: After bringing in paper 9 from Origins and stamping a mask from DifferentStrokes 2, I clipped the photo down, resizing it to fit the mask. Underneath the photo, I built up several layers of transfers and brushes, resizing and turning until I was pleased with the result. No blending was needed. A few brushes were used over the photo.
I duplicated the beer bug several times to circle around the photo and recolored the stitching with a Hue/Saturation adjustment layer to better match the Harlequin stamp I placed over the photo.
Adding the title and using the Blend Ifs to show the texture of the transfer underneath it, I added splatters to move across the page. Bringing in the dimensional elements, button and thread finished the page.
