How To Use Digital Scrapbook Templates With Blending Masks
If you are one of my regular customers, you have probably seen that I have a few Digital Scrapbook Templates with blending masks. The trend of using blended backgrounds on your digital scrapbook layouts have obviously come to stay. And these digital scrapbook templates with blending masks makes it super easy to create the look of a blended background on your pages. But some people struggle with them so I decided to create a little tutorial to show how you can use them.
Template Pack No 41 is a template pack that includes three digital scrapbook templates with blending masks.
This is the one that I’m going to use in this tutorial:
First, insert your photos and the background and the elements you want to use to the digital scrapbook template. Then add the photo you want to use above the blending mask layer like this:

Now you should press ctr+g(cmd+g on a Mac) if you use Photoshop Elements, if you use Photoshop CS, you need to add the alt tast as well, ctr+alt+g(cmd+alt+g) to group the photo with your blending mask.
You are now almost finished with your digital scrapbook layout, but you can still use the opacity slider to get the perfect look of your layout. Just move it back and forth until you are satisfied with the look.
Here is how my layout turned out:
