Gothic Arches, Art Cards, and Take a Word


On the left is my entry for Gothic Arches (Bedazzled) and for Art Cards (Favorite Stamp). Above is my entry for Take a Word (Angel). The background for the arch was made using Lumiere paints, mica, Stickles and other dazzling paints and materials. I stamped it with clear embossing ink with my favorite flower stamp and heated gold embossing powder on the flower. Sorry the gold doesn't photograph  well on the arch. Please enlarge the photo to see the stamp.

To make the TAW entry I superimposed an angel "stamp" from my digital collection. It is only there in the digital world.

Here is another example of my favorite stamp.
