I had a lot of fun practicing the techniques we learned last week in the Brush Class on this layout. And, of course I had so much fun I had to go buy more brushes, since there was a sale! 
First I used blending on the blue swirl - "KSC Brush Set Breathe Swirls". (I finally figured out what I was doing wrong - yay!). I put the brush on its own layer and used the "pin light" mode at 70%.
Then, I used the "LCO Photo Edges 2" brush set to erase around the edges of my photo. I selected the area with the selection brush, then deleted while rotating the image. (Technique 4)
Next I used "STI Brush Class Brushes" to create cut-outs from the papers and added shadows (the flower "suns") (Technique 2)
Lastly, I used "MRE Brush Set: Drop Hearts" to make a die-cut -- it's tiny and doesn't quite fit with the layout, but I wanted to try it. (Technique 3)
Thanks Anna - I'm learning a lot in this class! 
For this layout I used:
BMU Coastal Collection Biggie
STI Brush Class Brushes
LCO Photo Edges 2 Brush Set

KSC Brush Set: Breathe Swirls
