Thanks for all of your kind comments. I really was nervous about posting a layout! To create this, I basically just used the Custom Shape tool to draw a frame around the part of the picture that I wanted to keep "in the box" or 2-dimensional. Then under Image > Transform > Perspective, I dragged the corners of the frame to achieve the desired effect. When you change the Perspective, that is what makes it really look 3-D, in my opinion. Then I erased the part of the picture that was outside of the box and that I didn't want to keep. I also erased the top part of the frame where the hand was coming out of the picture. The reflection or shadow was already in the picture, luckily, so I didn't have to try to create that! I hope these instructions make sense. I'm not used to telling people how I created a page.

This is so beautiful! You did a super job! It certainly has a dreamy quality to it.

I LOVE that background!

What a funny picture! I love how you used it as the background, too.

This one really caught my eye. Every year I go crazy taking pictures of everything blooming in my yard, too.

What a great thing to scrap. I really like this layout!

What a fantastic photo! The page is super. I love all of the embellishments and the colors you used. Great job!
