Thanks for looking.
ok lets start.
Canvas 700 x 700
I used Paper 29 from Fablewood Fall 2 for mask layer,
Layer, add a new raster layer, selections, select all, copy and paste
the paper into selection. Select none. Then find your mask, I used
Miz Mask 284 and apply your mask. I duplicated the mask so mine
is layer 3, go to Layers, New Mask Layer, from image, in drop down
image, find your mask layer, mine was 3, click ok, then merge group.
