Here's a quick easy way to build up some layers and texture to your page
Using a large piece of light coloured scrap paper (we all have those
)swipe the pastel across (or down) the page fading it into the next depth of colour etc... PanPastel
Cut the paper into strips
Then into little square/rectangle shapes
THen by taking random colours, tuck around the photo. You could even line them up and place across the page for a mount for a photo too - plenty of options to experiment trying all sorts of ways to use the little pieces of paper
