i just asked on FB, but i'm curious for those i'm not FB friends w as well :)

what blend mode do you use for your shadows?

i usually use linear burn...but lately i've been using multiply.
 
Linear burn and multiply. Sometimes both on the same layout. Linear burn makes a nice subtle shadow on lighter & colored papers, under big flowers, and when I have many deep layers stacked up. But, its sometimes too heavy over darker areas and papers sometimes. If I need nice consistent shadows under photos, papers, buttons and string, I use multiply for those things.
 
sometimes linear but mostly multiply...but I use mostly Jenn's shadow styles and just tweak them.....funny thing is I don't necessarily use the "leaves" shadow just for leaves :) I found I really like that shadow for my top layer elements LOL!

what she said. exactly.
 
Mostly multiply, but sometimes I just duplicate them without using a blend mode & occasionally I'll use burn (PSP only has burn, no variations)
