Do you want to know how I did my blending:
1st layer =  I choose a BG paper with some great texture
2nd layer = my photo  - layer style 'darken' - opacity 80%
to blend into the BG

3rd layer = duplicate photo -  layer style 'hard light' - opacity 40%
to make it a little brighter

and here's your prize for completing this challenge:
a gorgeous mini kit - add-on to the August CAK

Isn't this cute???

And there's more!!!

Come back next week for challenge 3.

ENJOY!!!
