Here's my sample using one of the new Designs from Old Grist Mill plate. Its the watercolor markers technique from Technique Junkies.

cold connection metal

I tried a new technique using cold connection metal from an online group I belong too. Here's my first attempt. Its made from copper and brass sheeting, I thought it would be fun to have an arch shape that had hinged doors. Tricky but I did it. Also really hard on the hands. My metal was way to heavy. Live and learn!

Gothic Arches- Autumn

Don't you just love fall? I know I do, all the beautiful colors in all their Glory. At Gothic Arches the theme this week is Autumn. I tried to capture some of the beauty in my arch this week.
