Description

I've been trying my hand at more "artsy" creations, being inspired by some of Astrid's recent layouts. I started out with Marisa's template. I hid just about everything and brought in some clipping masks I found. I think I found them on deviantart, but I downloaded them in 2011, so I don't remember for sure. They are listed as being by sirubisama. I clipped a paper from the kit to one and the picture (from morguefile.com) to another. I used one of the standard brushes on my program to erase some of the masks. Then I unhid many of the layers and added papers until I was satisfied. I added a couple elements. I used Elif's new "curled" style for the banner.
