This is for this week's WCW challenge: paint a heart; and today's F4A: play it again, Sam (choose a song).
I enjoyed the wc video a lot, very helpful about layering color. I used metallic shimmer paints since I love anything shimmery (I'm a magpie). I also used some pens to add some detail and highlight, along with a graphite pencil. I also doodled some dots and some hearts hanging off the big heart.
Heart and Soul is a song that, besides Chop Sticks, everyone learns how to play early on. It was composed by Hoagy Carmichael and Frank Loesser. Loesser, the lyricist, wrote for Broadway, including Guys and Dolls, The Most Happy Fella and How to Succeed in Business etc.

I can hear piano plinking in the bg. Everyone can play this, whether or not they ever took a lesson. Your card is marvelous, and aren't the words so amazing!

outstanding use of the challenges to arrive at this wonderful mixed media card! And inspires me to go watch that tutorial.
I especially like the movement in that big heart...beat.

A shimmery celebration, Magpie. Love your textural and 3-D, large, open heart and those sweet dangling confetti hearts dancing to your iconic song and a wonderful touch.
