Okay we have equal interest in both styles and some requesting both. So I will try to oblige. That said I can't take the time for more voting. So todays step shows the choosing of a template for the traditional style not a necessity but makes things easier. And a choice of background papers for both styles. The middle is the traditional style and the right is the Artsy paper. Now you may wonder how the art on the paper works with the photo. You use it for texture and for blending. I just got he newest lesson for my Artsy style Wednesday and am doing that for my Artsy scrap. Two stones for one.
looking forward to seeing more Joan - this has me intrigued..
