Sugar Lump Studios - A Sweet Smattering of Mixed Media Art
Today, I am sharing three different neutral cards. Super easy to compose and the plain simple background of each card makes images “pop”! I put a neutral background paper on each white card. Next, I added digital postcards that I had printed on matte cardstock.
Layers were built up using white paper doilies, embossed texture papers in neutral colors, snowflakes (Sizzix and paper punch), lace, buttons, and collage images. Each image was highlighted using silver stickles.
Happy December!
Today, I am sharing a Christmas themed Gothic Arch to start the season. I created the arch on embossed gold specialty paper. Snowflakes, pattern paper, buttons, digital ephemera were also added.
The free image I found here: https://wingsofwhimsy.wordpress.com/2013/11/24/gilded-christmas-cherubs-free-printables/
I added gold Ranger stickles to the image and glued into place. The gold embossed arch was then added to a cardstock foundation and carefully trimmed.
Sharing this winter themed Gothic Arch with you on the blog today. I used pink and black as the color scheme to create it. Not very traditional for the holiday season approaching, but I am pleased with it just the same.
To create this arch I used pattern paper (double sided) in a pink shade, Hymnal music, digital tag that was printed, Christmas digital ephemera printed, collage image, snowflakes (Sizzix and EK Success) and black cardstock. The arch was mounted on to black cardstock and I trimmed around it with scissors to create a border.
November sure went quickly this year! I am looking forward to bringing you more creations as we approach Christmas.
The Gilded Angels Christmas Card was create using these gorgeous freebies located here: https://wingsofwhimsy.wordpress.com/2013/11/24/gilded-christmas-cherubs-free-printables/ I instantly feel in love with them and originally had planned to create something in neutral tones, but then the burgundy and gold foil paper said “try me”!
After placing the burgundy foil paper on the card base, I layered another piece of paper. Christmas hymnal music. I printed digital tag was then placed on top of the hymnal paper, followed by some gold embossed paper. The angel image was center on top of that. A tea stained tag was added to the left. A foam snowflake was double layered and Gold German scrap border was added to the bottom.
