layout from blog post about blending used for Thurs challenge

Jode this is wonderful and thanks for the great tutorial! Your photo is awesome and I love how you emphasized the lovely streams of light with the gradient blending and lighting effects. I really like your backgrouind and how softly your photo blends into it and the embellishments and border you used. This is such a magical page! Thanks for showing us how to blend so beautifully and for adding your layout to the challenge.

Lovely photo and it works just great with your gradient blending. Thanks for the tutorial. Great journaling.

Wonderful page! I especially love the way the shadows, accented by the lighting effect, look blended into the textured wood. Your embellished edges frame the pages beautifully!

Beautifully done. Thanks for a great example of what can be done with this.

Thanks for the tutorial, Jody! It was very clear, especially combined with your lovely page.
