This weeks theme at Gothic Arches is “Silhouette”…I found some free time yesterday to create this arch.
I decided to use the black crow template from Stampingtonas my silhouette. I added a black mini brad for his eye. The background is a combination of Hero Art stamps using black and vintage versafine. Handstitch done with fine black pen, old sheet music, vintage eggs and buttons added for detail.
Wow!! that is some sillhouette Nancy. Love your arch, the background is stunning and the eggs are wonderful…way to go :D
Have a great evening

Hi, Nancy! What a genius idea to use a black brad for your raven's eye. It really makes it seem real and dimensional!
And thanks for your nice comments on my blog! :-)

Great silhouette-arch!
I always like the look of brown and black together. Super arch, Nancy!

I can never get enough of crows and you have used this one beautifully. They are strong, beautiful and willful and that is what you have captured.
Wow… Nancy, what a beauty. Perfect!
