Sugar Lump Studios

Art by Nancy Maxwell James

{Live It Up}

May 29, 2007

A little ATC I made when I came home from work today. We got back from our trip last night at 9pm – I came down with a terrible headcold while we were away. Today I barely made it through work…I hate colds! :(

While in Louisville I was able to visit a Hobby Lobby store. We have the stores here in Michigan – but they are quite a distance from me. I picked up this rubber stamp during our shopping spree there… thought the two ladies were just too cute! :)

I made the background using turquoise ink, alcohol inks and bleach. The swirl stamp (bleach) is the large swirl stamp from justjohanna …also added her sweet little heart stamp. Glitter was added to the hearts and along a section to create a wave effect.

I sure am hoping to find some more creative time soon! :)

About Sugar Lump Studios

I am a dabbler. I love to create using all sorts of mediums...pattern papers, stamping, fabric, assemblage, collage, altered art, a never ending smattering of whatever strikes my fancy in whimsical moments. I find creating allows my soul to be fulfilled and love to spend hours in the studio.

    The image and aqua background are perfect together. I love the frame too, is it a stamp?
