January 4: Photo blended into background

Did mine with photos from the beach yesterday, the weather was really really bad and all my beach kits are summery!



Journaling (in Dutch) reads:
We went for a nice walk on the beach. We thought. But once at the top of the dunes top we got hit by loads of wind and hail. Luckily we had the wind in the back on the beach, but we all got soaking wet. All the dog enjoyed the 'dogs weather'

 

Photo taken January 4, 2022. I used Taco Tuesday Bundle by Bella Gypsy.

not the photo I would have chosen for blending, but as it needs to be a new photo (not complaining, completely agree on the new photo need) but as the only places I go lately are my bed and the kitchen, this seems the best option

 

Thanks for this challenge.

I was hoping for a snow pic, but clouds will have to do!

 

Farrah, thanks for the challenge! It seems like I'm doing a lot of Christmas layouts so far! Unusual for me...

 

Thanks for the tutorial! I can see myself using this technique a lot in the future.

I had a heck of a time trying to keep from covering up the evidence of the photo being blended, lol! Still, in the end, I am pleased with Oreo's first ever scrapbook page!

Huggles!!

I wanted to use an outdoor picture for this, but the weather has been bad. Then I stumbled upon this scene. The highstreet looked so bright, with all the lights reflecting on the wet paving.

 

thanks for this challenge
