I blended a red graph with a dark polka dot.

1. Create a background with at least 2 papers
2. Change the blend mode on at least 1 of the papers

I took a lightly minty green grid bottom paper and put a BOLD polka dotted paper on top and changed the blend mode of the top to 60% opacity and Color Burn.

This is my daughter Shelby and her boyfriend as the boat is pulling out of Miami on the first day of their cruise 1/12/17.

Very cool! I rarely do this, mostly because I'm trying to scrap fast these days. But when I do blending, I just love it! Off to work on my page...

 

[Rikki]

I blended two papers from Bad Mood, blendmode Multiply at 44% and a couple of elements as well.

I used the craft paper as the background and the white with trees over it with a multiply blending mode. Thanks for the challenge! I should use this more!

Great challenge!

 

[christineirion]

I do this with almost every page I make so this is like a freebie challenge for me! Often when I can't decide between two papers or I just want the paper I'm using to be lighter or darker I will pair two papers and change the opacity of the top layer.

@Mama Shades - wow...beautiful blending!
@Iowan ....love the colors you blended, it's a beautiful page!
@mirjam - not only is it a gorgeous page but I love the subject (you know I love food pages)!
@pagefrocks - Lori....the map blends in wonderfully over the woodgrain!

 

[bcgal00]

@jenn33199 - not only is the blending amazing but the photo treatment is too!

#15 MOC Paper Blending
I know that this is dated 2016. I wanted to order my 2016 'family encyclopedia' and I realized I am missing the title page! I blended sveral papers and pngs in the pocket cards.
Just My Type- by Pink Reptile
and Just Jamie made some templates for 2016 week 1. I used some of those elements from those templates.
