The Process: Starting with the ArtPlay Mini Palette Thanks paper, frame and adding the photo, I brushed out part of the photo I wanted to appear tucked behind the frame and tinkered with the part I wanted left spilling over the frame. On top of that I added a FotoGlow. Under the frame I added blue using the Different Strokes brushes.
Underneath I placed a transfer and overlay from the same palette, the overlay continuing the gold at the top.
From there I placed the snowman and gave him an arm from the MultiMedia kit and created a top hat from the Different Strokes brushes. He has an important job, he deserved a top hat. I extracted a lantern from the photo, resized it and added a shadow and hung it from his arm with a couple of threads. I placed more threadz at his feet as well as a tape texture. I recolored the little birdie and sat it on his hat, giving it a drop shadow. Underneath him I added another overlay and more Different Strokes brushes in blue.
Phew! That brings us to the left side of the layout. I clipped a copy of the photo to the AnnaBlendz Artsy 6, making another copy of the photo using Darken blend mode. I added a blue solid color adjustment layer, clipping it to the photo. I also added another AnnaBlendz Artsy 6 also coloring it blue. Over that I added the Winter WordMix, duplicating it one more time. I also placed it under the frame on the right side and blended it using Multiply.
Then I added the FotoGlow, my title, the staples from the ArtPlay Palette Family and splatters to finish the whole thing off.
