January 15: Paper Blending (Technique Challenge)

[bumblebeee]

It's hard to tell without seeing the papers, but the plaid background paper was blended with a gradient blue paper. It resulted in a softer background than the original plaid.

I blended two papers together to add some texture to a plain background paper.

 

[_scrapaholic_]

the background is created out of 3 papers with different blend modes (1 solid, 2 patterned grid & chevron)

 

[christineirion]

I blended a bold darker paper with a lighter one and also played with erasing various areas in a third layer.

 

[bcnatty]

I overlayed the map paper on top of the wood

 

[fruitysuet]

To create the yellow woodgrain I blended, from top down:
beige woodgrain colour burn 100%
red solid saturation 100%
beige solid normal 100%

To create the yellow chevron I layered yellow solid over black and white pp, lighter colour 100%.

Tried blending the blue/orange paper. Not sure it worked well.

Full supply list in gallery. Blending process:
On top is gmiller-vacay-solid (dark brown) – ‘inversed’ layer mask applied and decreased opacity brush applied to allow it to show through in bottom third.
Next was gmiller-vacay-paper (orange chevron) – ‘inversed’ layer mask applied and decreased opacity brush applied to allow it to show through on left side and in a line to mimic horizon. Used color blend mode to achieve similar color to photo.
Below that was sahlinstudio-hello sun paper (light brown) – layer mask applied and decreased opacity brush applied to allow below layer to show through at top.
Below that gmiller-vacay-paper (dark blue) blended, using pin light mode, with sabrina_p6 (light blue).

OK, I think I stink at blending papers, but I did my best. I blended 3 papers, used a brush on the edges of the top ones, and played with blending modes.

 

[SirScrapalot]

Ok, so I blended the kraft background to lessen the castle pattern and the other background is the black blended with a striped paper.

 

[cherpea]

Blended four layers, 2 solid and same pattern paper twice all with slightly different blending modes at different levels of opacity

 

[lvancura]

Background blending papers, bottom left blending, word art blending

 

[mnjenlittle]

I used a patterned paper with trees for the base layer. Then added a blue paper using Overlay at 70%. The white paper is using Lighten mode at 50%.

It is definitely addicting- this technique!
The right side has a solid background and 3 papers overlaid in various blending modes, the left has 1 blended paper.
