Wings and Things Gothic Arch


The background for this Gothic arch (made using the Shaving foam marbling technique as mentioned below) is so pretty, I tried not to cover it up too much.
I used two pieces of shrink plastic made weeks ago which I had coloured prior to shrinking with Caran Dache Aquarelle pencils, layered onto gold card.
I liked the effect of the wire used on the Shades of green Gothic Arch, so decided to add some wire wings to this one too.
Gems chosen to match the colours on the shrink plastic, looked a bit insignificant, so I added some of my (favourites) Accent beads. Edging the mountboard with my Gold mettalics pen gave it the finishing touch I was looking for.
