Just a few cards that I created last week to share with you. I can’t believe it is the middle of July already…it always seems like once the 4th is done the rest of the summer just flies by! I’m not one for the heat…and often I find myself hiding from it in the air conditioning. The heat came back yesterday – so it looks like it might be good for my creative part…but not so much for enjoying the summer and being outdoors!

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.

    Oh I love the way these look, they’re so
    Interesting with all the layers.
    Simply gorgeous!
    I’m sorry it’s so unpleasant there right now:(
    It does seem like summer flies by after the fourth!
    Thank goodness for that, I can’t stand it.

    Thanks for sharing these yummy creations:)

    You are definetly more than 2 lumps of Sugar. Love how you have made your space so beautiful. That display shelf is genius. I can only imagine the beautiful things you will do in a larger space. Those little faces on your cards are just too adorable. Thanks for popping by.
    Keep smiling and creating, and thanks for sharing

    These cards are beyond fabulous. These precious little faces are just so uber cute. I agree that the summer is flying past…in fact the entire year is evaporating. Creative Hearts are Happy Hearts…

    These are just to sweet. Great ideas for me for an upcoming birthday card I need to create.
    It’s been unseasonably HOT here…even our tomato plants are crying “uncle”!!!!!No sign of cooler weather for the next week either. Keep cool and creative!

    Such beautiful cards, Nancy–I have often used butterflies and antique buttons, vintage images, etc., in cards I’ve made for family and friends over the years-my favorite things! I love it that you treasure those, too-you always express your creativity in such beautiful collages. Thank you for the lovely eye-candy today!
