I have so enjoyed learning how to create mixed media pieces. This 11x14 canvas has several layers to the background. I mod podged some torn pieces of designer paper, put some acrylic paint on with a brush, thru a stencil, sponged on the edges.
The heart was free hand cut from a piece of cardboard. I colored it with gesso, gelatos, acrylic paint.
I cut the letter with my cricut and mod podged them into place.
My girl is totally inspired by Cassandra -find her website here

I hope your inspired to try your hand at mixed media!

This is absolutely gorgeous!! Wow! I really like the colors you used and the sentiment is a fantastic reminder. JOY is a choice. Thanks so much for sharing with us at Word Art Wednesday.
