I kept staring at the blank piece of fabric and also a piece of white cardstock wondering what I would do.
At one stage I had thought that I would just send Carol M (my swap partner for this month) a piece of white cardstock and tell her to put something on it for herself.
Finally I decided to just concentrate on the hearts and go for it.
The background piece of fabric is a baby wipe that I had used to clean my stamps with.
I placed it onto a piece of commercial felt and ran it through the embellisher and then I cut out heart shapes and placed them on top of and underneath the base and embellished the lot together.
I then added 3 purchased hearts to give it more texture.
Here is the page that Val chose for August---I kept looking at the people trying to get inspiration but finally I followed the hearts and went for it.

Love your hearts page Doreen, and the colours are so pretty. It must be very difficult sometimes having to work 'to order' but you always come up with the goods.
Lovely Doreen - glad you went beyond the white card!
I have some coloured wipes - must try embellishing them.
I think it's just lovely - and the colours you chose work perfectly with the original inspiration.
Well doreen, for someone who did not see past the white page you certainly came up with the goods - the hearts are lovely. Cheers, Robin
The hearts are beautiful.
PS - I hope you're feeling better.
We are our own worst critics - your workis beautiful as always. The picture of Ebony with her two Pop's choked me up, beautiful.
