Sugar Lump Studios

Art by Nancy Maxwell James

{Sweet – Letter S Challenge}

November 12, 2007

The letter S is the theme at Alpha Challenge this week – make a bookmark using the letter “S” in shades of green, blue and brown. I selected images from Paper Bag Studios and various green blue papers and vintage sepia ink. “Sweet” is in the arch using blue distress ink.
First attempt at a bookmark and it was fun!

P.S.

Received a LONG awaited phone call today on my way home from work! How fitting that my Andrew called on “Veteran’s Day” – he sounded good – and I did not cry! :) Tomorrow they fly into Iraq so my worries will be stronger. Thank you for all the wishes of that “phone call” – it was wonderful to hear him!
