Rosie and I were very inspired and impressed by the amazing arch that Sharon made ...... so we decided to have a go ourselves!First I made a metal frame to practise using the roller wheels and the drawing tool, then I moved on to the real thing! It was wonderful to do and I can't wait to have another go, so will be ordering some metal and tools from LB Crafts very soon. The stamps in the middle are mostly by Paper Whimsy. They were stamped on fabric and then I padded and stitched over it. I used alcohol inks and black acrylic paint to colour the metal.

Oh my goodness Linda! Your arch is incredible! Love how you have stitched the central panel. I would buy this in an instant if you listed it on Etsy. Wish I had more time to play - this looks like so much fun.
Thanks for providing art inspiration during my boring work day ):

Wow, Linda, you must have been something in the classroom! I can't keep up with your projects; each one is more interesting than the last one. Don't you ever run out of ideas? Nice work!

Wow Linda - this is such a stunning piece of art. I LOVE it!
What did you use to make the perfect arch shape (is it hardboard or something similar?)
I too want all those tools and moulds and metal (adding everything to my list for Santa to bring me - which is already far to long.... LOL)
Amazing, your arch is beautiful as is your padded piece.
