Sugar Lump Studios

Art by Nancy Maxwell James

{Postcards Gothic Arch}

June 20, 2009


This weeks theme at Gothic Arches is “Postcards”. I used digital postcard images from From The Craft Room and vintage boy photo from Digital Collage Sheets. Stamp from Hero arts, old torn book text and mini brads.

    Great inspiration here, Nancy. I love the way you wrote out the date across your arch.
    Seems so simple — yet I'd never think if that:)
