Much effort has been devoted to removing differential Stark shifts for atoms trapped in specially tailored ''magic'' optical lattices, but thus far work has focused on a single trapped atomic species. In this work, we extend these ideas to include two atomic species sharing the same optical lattice. We show qualitatively that, in particular, scalar J=0 divalent atoms paired with nonscalar state atoms have the necessary characteristics to achieve such Stark shift cancellation. We then present numerical results on ''magic'' trapping conditions for {sup 27}Al paired with {sup 87}Sr, as well as several other divalent atoms.
