Hello Campus Friends. I have been playing with masks. Each protea flower surrounding the main image has been extracted via a mask. Adjusting the blend mode and opacity of these layers has resulted in a loss of the mask but that is the result I wanted. The main image was masked and I allowed a slight drop shadow as the usual paper shadow was too ‘obvious’. Wordart top right is my own although the poem is not as with the one on the left. Many layer overlays, blend modes and opacity changes to achieve the background paper. Alpha is from Designer Digitals by CZ and called Messy Slabs. Thanks for takin a peek my friends. ;D
