Show Us Your Stuff May challenge

This month at Show Us Your Stuff, the challenge is to use poetry and hearts. What a lovely challenge:

I chose to use a poem about babies, and I scrapped my great nephew Rome. (He is so cute). 

I created a background using Norm Oliver Colour Bursts, over stenciled texture paste, and added stamping, and ink splashes. 

I mounted the photo on a variety of papers including handmade paper from Sirrah Sarrah. 

Other handmade items I used include Charms Creations heavenly hearts, Funky Flairs Studio flairs, and Studio fourteen40 tabs. I also hand died a crochet doily. 

I quite like the way this layout has turned out, even though the background is a litte grungy.
