Natural Arches


I recently ordered some card and from the photo it looked like ribbed kraft card, when it arrived it was actually a pattern printed onto white card, so I decided to use some of it up and die cut these arches.

The image was stamped onto crackly tissue paper and coloured with the browns of the fresco paints, Irish cream, cinnamon, chocolate pudding and nougat. 

I added square gold gems and the strip across the bottom is a Bo Bunny rub on.


And this was it this morning in it's more natural colours out in the sunshine!!!

Love this Sam...that stamp is great isn't she?? Great colours,love all the shades of one colour.

I used some of the tissue Leandra sent in my last parcel to stamp my last oriental lady on..it's not as good as crackly but will do till they find some more...

I've been enjoying the dramatic colourful Oriental look, but I have to say, there's something about this much more austere look that really appeals to me - simple, but very, very cool!
