I watched a mixed media scrap video mentioned by Nancy Williams and Jayne, and have joined their mixed media challenge! Gabrielle Pollacco does fabulous work! I distressed the top DSP and layered it on a second, after cutting the center out, so I could use it for the hear. I also found a heart shaped doily in my stash. I applied gesso through a doily stencil. I watercolored some spots on the top layer, and did some text stamping.
I had some stickers that came with this Bo Bunny DSP, so put on chipboard and put on my layout. I distressed the doily and the chip board. The letters also come with the Bo Bunny. These were in a ziplock bag I was given on NSD at a now defunct Scrapbook store over 15 years ago!
About time I used this! The flourishes are chipboard from my stash. I really had fun doing this. I will submit it for the June Stash Buster: I used 3 dsps, circles, and stamping. It is titled Larry & Sharon , so it is for the Alpha Double Challenge this week!
Thanks for the inspiration, Cheryl, Nancy, Jayne, and Ann!
Thanks for looking.

Sharon this is awesome. You used lots of techniques that Gabrielle does. I love the doilies, distressed edges, stamping, the heart...all of it. It looks so good and how cute are you 2? Congratulations on your 53 years. So glad that you are joining Nancy and I each month with our MM challenges. Can't wait to see what you come up with for next month. Happy day and hugs
