I just posted this page here


I used Anna's TwoStep Layered Template No. 4 and made a mess of it.

Can someone give me a better idea of how these work? Or perhaps point me to a blog post/tutorial for more ideas?

Thanks soooo much!!

hi, Chris! Anna often puts a lot of layers of varying opacities and blending modes on her templates. you can mess around shutting some of them off, or switching the blending mode they're set to, aven their opacity. i think, with the photo on the right on your page, that you've got some blending mode stuff going on that you could change. with my page: https://ozone.oscraps.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=263665&title=serenity&cat=all i changed the color of some of the paint and texture layers to suit my photo. "messing around" plays a big role in working (or should i say "playing...") with Anna's art. the same holds true with her templates. approach her work with the understanding that she doesn't write anything in stone. move things, change things, recolor things. eliminate things. it's all part of the fun.
 
Chris, i left notes in the comments. I did the same as you, turned off all the layers in Template b, they were the same exact layers as template a, and since I'd already used them...well! :)
 
Thanks for your advice, everyone.

I really liked the way Template A came out, but when I tried to use it on Template B i just seemed to struggle.
I'll keep on playing!

Don't you just love that ability in digital land? No way could I do that with paper. :pound:
 
I want to say thank you to everyone who posted here and in the gallery! I haven't had a chance to play around any more yet with this but I appreciate all of your ideas and suggestions very much.
