Inspiration - Looking through some of last years spring photos I found this one taken at Estes Lake
Start - I started with a new background
Papers - I added Solid Paper 3 to the background
Artys Transfer - Placed Artsy Transfer 4 to the page. Also added Artsy Transfer 5 to the page on the left edge in the lower corner and Artsy Transfer 3 to the lower right side.
Photos - I grouped two of the layers of the Artsy Transfer 4 together and I clipped my photo to the group using Layer>Create Clipping Mask. I decided to enlarge both the photo and the Artsy Transfer. I grouped the picture and the Artsy Transfer and using Ctrl T.
Overlay- Used Flower Overlay 2.6, filled it with green from the photo and changed the color mode to Color Burn.
Brush - Used Brush 10 using a blue from the water in the photo and placing it over the ArtsyTransfer 4 but below the photo connecting it to the photo so the water appears to flow out of the photo
MultiMedia - Placed MultiMedia Branch 3.2 above the photo and the brush to contain the photo and to cover any gap between the brush and the photo.
Elements -Added the leaf to the page above the MultiMedia Branch 3.2 sizing it and moving it to look a little bit like part of the Branch group.
Wordart - Used the "spring will come and life will get warm." for my title. It is the thought you have at this time.
