heARTfelt art - secret messages and special memories

I spent several days last week making a piece of memory art for my friend Betsy.  I had so much fun making this that I decided to offer them on my website.  I thought I'd share the process with you cuz I actually remembered to take some photos (surprise!). 

I start with the keepsakes & photos you provide,

then layer on elements &; a little texture,

color & more elements,

more texture & dimension, more color, more elements,

so on & so forth until everything is just right.
