Lots to share today as it&#8217;s the last post during our birthday celebration! Our focus is on blending photos and elements in our digital artwork so we have a beautiful freebie for you today with 2 Click.Masks, painted word art, and a shell heart accent made with our shell collection (at end of post). Let&#8217;s get to the fun!<\/p>\n<p>Click.Masks are a favorite go-to collage tool. I was able to make these layouts in little time because the mask does all the work for you with the paint strokes and edge effects, making for realistic blending.<\/p>\n<p>Today we&#8217;re sharing the layers and blend modes used in the four digital pieces featured so you can see how the different elements are stacked and blended (click each image to enlarge). Leave a comment or contact us at top right if you have any questions.<\/p>\n<p>For a more detailed tutorial on using Click.Masks see our blog post <a href=\"..\/?p=4158\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>In Soulmate at top here are the layers and blend modes&#8230;<\/p>\nngg_shortcode_1_placeholder\n<p>ngg_shortcode_2_placeholder<span style=\"font-size: x-small;\">michelle shefveland. <a href=\"http:\/\/cottagearts-net.stores.yahoo.net\/artjoblcapap.html\">Art Journal Blank Canvas Papers<\/a>, freebie below<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Below are the blended layers and the blend modes used&#8230;<\/p>\nngg_shortcode_3_placeholder\n<p>ngg_shortcode_4_placeholder<span style=\"font-size: x-small;\">michelle shefveland. <a href=\"http:\/\/cottagearts-net.stores.yahoo.net\/artjocopapak.html\">Art Journal Couture Papers<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/cottagearts-net.stores.yahoo.net\/belovedpagepak.html\">Beloved Pak<\/a> (winged butterfly), <a href=\"http:\/\/cottagearts-net.stores.yahoo.net\/byseapapakw.html\">By the Sea<\/a> (mat),\u00a0 freebie click.mask below<\/span><\/p>\nngg_shortcode_5_placeholder\n<p><span style=\"font-size: x-small;\">ngg_shortcode_6_placeholder<\/span><span style=\"font-size: x-small;\">michelle shefveland. <a href=\"http:\/\/cottagearts-net.stores.yahoo.net\/byseaadpakw.html\">By the Sea Add-On Pak<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: x-small;\">ngg_shortcode_7_placeholder<\/span><span style=\"font-size: x-small;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/cottagearts-net.stores.yahoo.net\/byseaadpakw.html\"><\/a><br \/>\n <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #238a79;\"><span style=\"color: #3b6860;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><strong>If you&#8217;re just coming to the blog today, we\u2019re celebrating our 8th Birthday with  <a href=\"http:\/\/cottagearts-net.stores.yahoo.net\/whatsnew.html\">33% <\/a><\/strong><a href=\"http:\/\/cottagearts-net.stores.yahoo.net\/whatsnew.html\"><strong> <\/strong><\/a><\/span><\/span><strong><span style=\"color: #3b6860;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/cottagearts-net.stores.yahoo.net\/whatsnew.html\">off    DOWNLOADS<\/a> ending Monday, 4\/18 <span style=\"font-size: small;\">(even new products)<\/span>!<\/span><\/span> <\/strong><\/span><span style=\"font-size: x-small;\">(excludes Photo Art Blends which are 20% off). <\/span><span style=\"font-size: x-small;\">Additional coupon code in this past Friday&#8217;s newsletter. <\/span><span style=\"font-size: x-small;\">Sale ends Midnight CT, Monday, April 18,  2011. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: line-through;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><strong>By the Sea Add-On 2 Free Download<\/strong><\/span><\/span><strong> <\/strong>by Michelle Shefveland <span style=\"font-size: x-small;\">(expired Noon CT, Tuesday, April 19th, ).
