To celebrate this new issue, we are doing a blog hop!  At each blog you can enter to win a copy of this issue AND each blog will show a mixed media idea!  Here is my idea I wanted to share with you:
I cannot take credit for this  beautiful piece! A talented girlfriend gave it to me for my birthday!  I wanted to share it with you though. She started with a canvas, decoupaged paper from an old book onto the canvas, and then added a beautiful watercolor painting. She knew I was looking for a piece to go in my scraproom:
