I made my own background paper and blended two photos into it(One wedding picture and a picture of an old building at the heritage site where we were married). Saved it and turned it into sepia tone and edited it in Akvis and Topaz; then tried to give it a 'wash effect' over top and then cut away the edge to frame it. A lot of steps, that I don't know if I could duplicate again LOL. I didn't make any elements, I hope that is okay for the challenge, if not please let me know and I will remove it.

WOW...applause, applause!!!!!!! first this is simply a spectacularly beautiful scrap!! the image, the monotone colors and the edits are divine. but, the fact that it isn't one picture, but two that you have combined is amazing!!! I would have never known the building was part of the photo of you on the wagon!! simply glorious!!!!!!!
