Sugar Lump Studios

Art by Nancy Maxwell James

{More Shabby Cards}

April 16, 2007

I made two cards using some giant prima flowers I bought over the weekend.

Both cards are using Just Johanna stamps.

The “Pink Mom” card I selected colors I don’t normally work with. Just Johanna’s Large swirl stamp and alphabet letters to spell out M-O-M. Touches of prima flowers, ribbon and mini brads and a giant button.

The “Purple Shabby Birthday” was created using Just Johanna’s Small swirl stamp, Sylvie birds (left and right), Happy Birthday, and paisley heart stamps. On the hearts, I heat embossed using garnet embossing powder. Machine stitching, ribbon, and distress ink was also added.
