Page Process-
The photo was clipped to AnnaBlendz Harlequin and both were resized.
The photo was duplicated and the new photo layer which is layered above the original had the color dodge blending mode applied and the opacity decreased to pop the color of the page.
Multiple transfers from AP Summery were blended and areas erased from the page design.
Various brushes were added to create texture in the design. AnnaBlendz Blending with Brushes is great tutorial to start you on the road to brushes on your layouts!
WordART and WordLabels were also added to the page in place of journaling.

thanks for looking.donna
