This weeks theme at Gothic Arches is “Winter Sports”. When I was a child, each day after school the pond across the street from my home was the skating rink. I would put my ice skates on and spend hours skating. I also loved to sled. I have never tried snow skiing but enjoy it on water.

My arch has watercolored book text with alcohol inks applied. I also used a word stamp embossed in white. I added a white snowflake (Sugar Lump Studios) and glitter dots along the edges. Vintage image, vellum snowflakes and crystal brads were also applied. THe letter “W” was also added.
