I used Moon Glow by Viva Artistry and Space Cadet by Crafty Button Designs. I just let my creativity run away with me. The image of the girl, holding the moon is from Pixabay. I actually built my page around her, because I loved this image so much. All of my pages have had a similar theme...

The font is Poplar Std Black, which I warped into different...
I have been wanting to do a mandala-type page for a long time. I did most of the element placement manually, since PSE doesn't allow you to create actions, but after the first couple of layers, which took forever, I developed a rhythm for the rest of the page. Here is a very abbreviated...
