1. Frame Your Blended Photo

Clip a photo to one to a Snow FotoBlendz clipping masks and support the edges with DigitalART supplies.

• Charlene clipped her photo to Snowy FotoBlendz No. 1.
• Transfers, Overlays and snowflake elements from ArtPlay Palette Mint Blizzard support the edges of the masked photos.
• The digital scrapbooking design is completed with a snowman element from MultiMedia Snowmen No. 2, stitching from UrbanStitchez No. 1 and a title from Winter WordART Mix No. 1.

2. Combine with FotoInspired

Use the Winter ValuePack No. 2 to embellish both your Winter and Summer themed FotoInspired layouts.

• Notice how she has threaded the buttons and recolored the CrochetedSnow No. 2 to embellish her digital scrapbooking layout.
• Miki has used the snow motif to Represent the cooler weather during her Florida vacation.

3. Establish Focal Points

Use a frame to emphasize and draw the eye to your photo focal point.

• Jerri has used a bold frame element from ArtPlay Palette Mint Blizzard to emphasize her photo.
• Notice how she has used the CrochetedSnow No. 2 to matte her image and add Visual Interest to her digital scrapbooking layout design.
