My fellow Ten Two Studios DT member Gayle Page-Robak is this week’s host at Gothic Arches and I love her arch! I had a bit of fun tonight scraping paint across cardstock for ATC backgrounds – ready for upcoming swaps and then put this little fabric arch together. I cannot remember where the image is from as I’ve had it ready to use for at least 6 months, back when I started the Arty-Farty Birdie Bags!
Everything is stitched on (even the tag!) and all the fabric is scraps of recycled textiles from the Scrapstore! Even the phrase on the tag was lying on my sewing table… which just goes to show how infrequently I tidy up! 🙂
I suppose I should really enter it on the Ongoing recycling challenge at Artygirlz too…
