Process: I began by blending the large photo into the paper and giving it a painted look with Topazs Impression plug-in. I placed the frames and textbox above and moved them down on the page. I clipped my photos to the masks. I stamped the architecture piece above the blended photo copies. I then layered transfer_1, copies of a texture from the template, an overlay and a dripped stain to create a diagonal line of yellow. Behind the frames, I placed the .psd file of fotoglows mix. I used the frame on the right edge to create a cluster, layering it with an overlay from the APP, texture and another dripped stain. I then added the word art, journaling and the date. On the beaded threads from the word art mix, I switched out the letters from Beaded Threadz No. 3 and ArtPlay Palette Posy to spell now.
