I used two of Dawn's papers that were already blended so I just used the overlay mode for the top paper:
Blended the flower paper over the artsy paper using the Exclusion Blend Mode. The wordart is also blended using Screen mode.
I blended 4 papers, on bottom paper used hard mix blend then put another regular layer on top and lowered opacity
I had to re-do most of this page because the collab I used wasn't in the store any longer. Eek! But I'm still happy with how it turned out. I blended three different papers along with the mask border from Fiddle Dee Dee's template challenge template for the background. It took a while but I'm happy with what I got! Thanks for the fun challenge!!
my background paper is a blend of the star paper and the news print paper. I included them both individually behind my photos. It's not a very easy thing to do with Artisan, but I tried
I blended two sets of papers the background papers - one patterned and one middle tone CS (minty colored) You can kinda see the original patterned paper in the "smudge". The other one is patterned brown chevron on a tan. both using screen and about 50% opacity
