Oh it is so nice to be back and be able to participate in speed scraps again! At least I get SOME scrapping done then! lol Here are the instructions:
Step 1: Select 1 photo that can be selectively colored. To selective color: Duplicate it and turn it black and white. Then use your eraser to erase part of the photo so that the color underneath shows through.
Step 2: We’re using only 3 colors tonight and black and white each count as a color. So find a kit that you like where you can only use 3 colors! You may use shades of the same color (so light blue and a darker blue count as blue). Use one solid paper as your background.
Step 3: Place your photo on the page off to one side. Keep your photo medium sized (about a quarter of the page). Mat your photo with 1 paper from your kit. Then create 6 paper strips behind your photo. You can also use flat ribbons or ric rac in place of paper strips, just make sure you have 6 total. If you have a pattern paper that uses 3 of the colors but also a small amount of a 4th I will allow that.
Step 4: Find an element that is the same color as your background paper (I would recommend a swirly element if you have one) and blend it into your background paper on one of the edges. Play around with the blending modes to see which one you like the best. I used “Color Dodge.” You can duplicate this element as many times as you would like.
Step 5: Create a cluster in one corner of your photo using 5 or 7 elements, one of which has to be something other than a ribbon, string, leaves, flower or button. Duplicated items count towards your total.
Step 6: Stitch your photo on one side. Using 2 of your three colors, create a title. Part of your title should be one color and part of it the other color. If you would like to stroke your title in white, I will allow that too.
Step 7: Add drop shadows and any finishing touches you need.
Here is my LO!
