| really cool ... I wish I was disciplined enough to keep a journal ... this looks like it was taken under a black light to get this effect ... great start to the month |

| When I saw the thumb of this I thought it would be pretty flat, but as everyone's said, there's a lot to it. The blue does work here, but if you'd left anything not blue I think it would not have. I like that you only captured some of the words, which turns this from a picture of writing where everyone is focused mainly on the words, to an image that includes some words for interest (even though we can tell what it said). Good start to the challenge. |

| It looks like it's on a light box. It has that kind of luminance. I'd say you either used a blend mode difference or exclusion. Try it on a fresh picture and see what you come up with. |

| Very cool how the writing seems to float above the image beneath. Good use of shallow dof. |

| The blue is perfect. The paper does look 3-dimensional. I can't make borders with the Gimp either...I edit w/Gimp , then go back to my other software to add a frame. How ever you did it- it's very appealing. |

so fess up -- did you write that journal entry with the photo in mind? :) (not that *I* would *ever* do anything like that ;). (you know you're obsessed when...)
The blue is a happy accident, isn't it? Is that the background of the paper that looks vaguely floral-ish? It looks almost 3-D to my eyes, with the way you processed this. |

| I really like what you came up with for this.....the blue is gorgeous, dof just right. Personally I think it's better without the border. |

| I love the shades of blue. It's interesting the picture is of a journal documenting this challenge. |

the easiest way to add a simple border is it go under image> canvas size. select how big of as border you want
you can change the color of the border by clicking on the canvas extension color 
you can also add a simple border by selecting edit> stroke and selecting how many pixels you want the border to be and also what color you would like.

When I play around with my images in photoshop or elements, I also have problems adding a border, but if you save it first, as a image, re the processing that yiiu have done, and then re load it again, one can usually then add a border.
Give it a try.
I like this blue toned effect..... |
