Butterfly - These wings fly.....



Over at Inkurable stampers, they are starting a new Gothic Arch challenge every two weeks.
-0O0-
I love arch shaped atc's, So, I'm going to challenge myself to join in with this, and hopefully turn my arches into a little booklet at the end of the year!
-0O0-
Anyway, the first Challenge is butterflies...

...and heres my arch :
I've stamped the background with a PaperArtsy stamp,
...then distressed it with inks.
...added a transparency image of a butterfly-girl, embellished with some german scrap, buttons, key, oh, and some wordies!!
Can't wait to see what the next arch challenge is now!
Thanks for Looking!

Gorgeous atc !! Beautiful details ! I have never made an arch shaped atc, maybe I´ll do my first one now :o) Is there any rules about the size?

Hugs, Gry-Heidi :)
