Gothic Arches - silhouettes

Sunday's gothic arches challenge has as its theme this week: silhouettes. For my arch's background I'm using some paper I made with bits and pieces of pictures from magazines, tissue paper, etc. I smeared on different colors and wiped most of it back off. The silhouette is made with StaZon and Purple Onion and Rubber Stampede stamps.
