The Lovely Gossmere


Hello Fellow Blog Artists!

Know I find inspiration in your work and I hope you find some in mine. "The Lovely Gossmere" and the arch she inhabits is about a young woman who just wants to play in her castle. Onlookers look on. Are they supportive? Are they envious? Are they truly her friends? We may never know...

CHALLENGES:
This little arch is for THE GOTHIC ARCH challenge which is an open theme http://gothicarches.blogspot.com, CRAZY 4 CHALLENGES which asks that we use at least 2 ribbons in our project http://crazy4challenges.blogspot.com C4C44, and OH, ALICE which requires that we use a red, white and blue color scheme http://aliceinwonderlandchallenge.blogspot.com.

STAMPS: Gossmere (digi) by www.tiddlyinks.com
3 in a round and heart tie by Stampotique
background text by Clear Distressing Stamps, glitzitnow.com
Be Yourself by Inkadinkado's 10 clear stamp piece Friendship

OTHER: colored in copics/diamond stickles/8 brads/4 small flowers/white hand stitching/2 ribbons on bottom/broken china distress ink/ pearlescent sky blue brilliance pigment ink

Feel free to take some inspiration, leave a comment, and be on your merry crafty way! Thank You so much hanging out!
