The background on this is actually created in three layers. First, I added Pumpkin Pie as the background color for the page, then toned down the color a bit by adjusting the "opacity." (This is as easy to do as sliding a control button until you get the look you want!)
Next, I added one of the beautiful designer papers from the Night and Day digital download. Instead of adding this as the background, which would have replaced the pumpkin pie, I selected the "Add as Page Layer" button. Then, I resized the paper to take up the entire page. Again, I adjusted the opacity to about 80%, so that the pumpkin pie color would show through and the paper would be lighter and more lacy looking.
I repeated the process one more time with another of the designer papers from Night and Day (love this stuff -- marketed as Halloween paper, but so much more versatile than that! And, you have to love being able to change the background color behind it!)
To complete the page, I added the photo, the text, and the digital scallop stamps. This software really is terrific -- easy to learn for beginners, but yet with plenty of creative options for those who have been doing digital scrapbooking for a while!
Speaking of creative options, there are also some new digital downloads available for My Digital Studio. They are:
