Sugar Lump Studios

Art by Nancy Maxwell James

{RSS Banner Challenge}

November 6, 2009



I was honored to be asked by Isa Norris to play in the upcoming 5 week challenge at readysetstamp.blogspot.com. Each week you add more ingredients to the completed project…and I am going to try and finish this – no matter how crazy & wonky life is right now.

I made my banner using K & Company paper that I stamped stars on to and embossed with gold powder. Along the edges another star stamp was added using Versafine Vintage Sepia. My very favorite Paper Whimsy image was added to the center, and Tim Holtz ticket stamps were cut and added to the bottom. Prima flowers at the bottom, vintage buttons, and paper punched stars that had been distressed. I added “sparkly” stars to the center of each punched star for added dimension.

Hope you will find time to play too! :) Happy Friday!

    Nancy, you're just fabulous! I feel like a broken record–I think I say something like that everytime I see what you've made–but it's always true! I love your beautiful creations!
