Photo: Mine

Process Notes: Solid paper 1 from Viaggio is the foundation of my layout. I placed the photo, enlarged it a little and with a reverse mask and AnnaBlendz brush brought the photo back. I duplicated the photo two times, blending the layers to Overlay and Screen, which enriched the photo.

I brought in the third brush from Countryside and slipped it underneath the photo layers stretching to the right and clipped a transfer from the palette and blended the brush layer to Linear Burn. I gave the brush a Bevel and Emboss to give it a texture that went beautifully with the wonderful textures in the artsy transfers I piled on and blended under the photo layers and across the page. Just under the photo on the left side, I peaked out the artsy paint and colored it pink from the artsy transfer. I also added the clouds above the photo.

The script tease was recolored and blended to Vivid Light and at the bottom of the script I used the patterned paper from Traveler and with a reverse layer mask and brought a bit of it in. The word art for the title was recolored and blended to Color Burn.

Adding the tape and tissue textures and brushes from the palette, recolored and tucked in here and there above and beneath the photo. The pearls were added, duplicated, and with the Lasso tool cut and pasted one of the pearls to another position. Another layout completed.
Love the fusion of heritage and contemporary/artsy. Gorgeous touch of lime green, and perfect title.
 
Absolutely stunning page Barbara, I adore family photographs and you have done this beauty proud!
