Artsy Layered Template No. 206 https://www.oscraps.com/shop/Artsy-Layered-Template-No.-206.html


This page started out as a page with just the multimedia daisies but as I was busy this week I kept looking at it and decided it needed a focal photo, so I went looking in my heritage LR catalog. I found this picture of my cousin Sandy from a Christmas card.

Procedure: I started the page Artsy Layered Template 206. Next, place a different daisy in each frame and sized them to fit. Using Edit>Fill, I changed the mask color to blue. Blend modes can help improve the look of mask frames, and so I changed the mask to Linear Light, resulting in a soft blue/gray background for the daisies.

To the various texture layers, I also used the Edit>Fill with multiple shades of blue. For the background, Solid Paper 5 was added to the page. FotoGlowMix1.3 was set under the frame on the left with the more prominent glow showing. The Daisey element under the two frames on the left.

I needed something else to balance out the page. The last daisy enlarged was arranged by the left lower corner of the focal photo. I placed it first just above the paper and slowly moved it up the layers until I like how it looked.

I used a Subtle Quote above my journaling and created my own title just to finish off the page.
