The end process was
to do a composite of all the layers by Ctrl/Shift Alt E to flatten layers
without losing the layers below. I
applied a gradient map color called Picasso inspired, it's a lavender color, I
changed the opacity to about 22. This
really made the color in the page pop.
I Promise
To help me focus on losing weight I found this awesome promise on the internet, I will look at it everyday and repeat it to myself to help inspire me to stay on my diet and live healthier.

Vintage Halloween (various elements and transfers)
Alpha used for word “OUT” in kit Wander by Rosey Posey
Fonts
Simply Glamorous (used a stroke to thicken font) used on word “carving”
Mom’s Typewriter used on word “memories”
Process: I started with Artsy Template #167 and turned off everything but the frames and masks to add photos. Added photos, they were a bit bright so I darkened them by using the blend mode "multiply" and adjusted the opacity so the photos were not too dark. I added the background paper that was best suited to the coloring of the photos, added the title and various elements. I did end up turning on some of the template layers that I thought would add to the layout.

Memories of Grandma
My sister and I at my grandma’s house. I don’t have many pictures of my childhood so this is very precious to me. When I look at it, it brings back memories of wonderful times at grandma’s house.
I have many found memories of my times at grandma's house. I remember her teaching me to crochet, and playing games with me such as Pokeno and monopoly. I remember she grew her own mint in her garden and made me her famous mint tea. She's gone now, but she left me a heritage full of fun, laughter and a feeling of being loved!
Always and Forever Grandma!

The Road Less Traveled
Sometimes the fear of the unknown has us paralyzed and unable
to choose the path we must follow. The
path to the right many have taken, it’s known, it’s easy, it’s safe and we know
what awaits us at the end of it. But is it really the best for us, does it
allow us to explore to grow? The left has
not been taken by many, we struggle to go through the overgrowth, we stumble
and fall, but we find that the end result we have grown, we have grown stronger
and because of that we know what we want and who we are.
Which road would you choose?????

I Remember When
For the Challenge No.2 - PROMPT (September 2014)
http://ozone.oscraps.com/forum/showthread.php?t=29995
The September prompt brought to mind this conversation I had with my daughter when she was about 4.
Journaling:
When Stef was 4 yrs old she overheard me and a group of ladies discussing how far back we could remember things I had shared with the group that I remember vividly the morning we left Germany and came to the States. I must have been about 5 yrs. old. I didn't realize Stef had been paying attention to what we were discussing, but apparently she had been, because all of a sudden she said: "I remember when I was a seed in your tummy. "I said "Wow that really is far back." Stef said "Yes it is." I asked her "What was it like?' and she said "It warm and dark?"

Our Daily Bread
Some days are exceptionally trying, but we just need to slow down and take a moment to thank God for all the blessings He has given us, and to trust that He will always meet our needs…..Just believe and trust that He will provide our daily bread and more…..

Process: I used the template, but disabled some of the layers to simplify the background a bit. Used the Color overlay function on some layers and transfers were attached to others. The photo is untouched and used as it came out of my camera. I didn’t really have two photos that were good enough to use so on the second photo frame I used one of the ArtsyKardz to add some texture and color.

Pictures are from “Seeds” I get emails from them that show
some awesome pallet color combinations.
I just had to use these this time ….welllllll because as you know I
LOOOOOOVE PURPLE.
Process: I placed my
photos and cropped them to fit the frames.
The salmon color rose I tweaked a bit by adding a gradient map and also
Hue and Saturation to make the tones fit better with my beloved purples. Anna always has paint, transfers in her
template that you can color by adding additional transfers to them. Some I added a color overlay filter (love
this filter) and others I added various Anna overlays to add color. I finished it by adding a focal point with my
branch, lavender and button elements.

ArtPlay Why Not
http://www.oscraps.com/shop/product.php?productid=29380&page=1
Process: The photos needed some work on them since they were taken on an iphone and not good quality. In order to have a more uniform look I lighten some of them to match the lighting of the others. I duplicated and used the Screen mode, some I lowered the opacity because they were too bright. One of the photo’s was really grainy and I used some steps to soften it a bit (instructions coming soon). I then changed them to BW and used the gradient map on the photos to get a more unified tone. Once that was done I added my elements and journaling.

Process: Started with the paperie for a background, added the FotoBlendz mask to the area I wanted to place my photo. I clipped my photo to it, adjusted the mask by pulling the horizontal areas to show more of the photo. Added the loopdaloop below the mask because I only wanted the outer areas to frame my photo. I added the wordart, elements and a few splatters. One thing I did do with one of the brushes is add a stroke (size 1) because I wanted it to be a bit bolder.
