Gothic Arches - By The Sea

This week the theme at Gothic Arches is "By The Sea” and our hostess this week is Nellie van Leeuwen who came up with this beautiful arch and challenge. What comes to your mind when the sea is mentioned? Bathing along the beach? Lighthouses? Nautical? Whatever the vision may be we want to see it here in gothic form

When I think of the sea I think of Lighthouses -and for this challenge I got to use one of my favorite StampScapes stamps - Light, Rocks & Waves. I stamped on Glossy cardstock with Staz-On Black Ink and then used many blues and purples from Marvy Inks. I layered the clolors lightest to darkest and to get the white in the waves and rock I scraped off the colored inks. I added a bit of yellow for the light in the windows. I layered that piece on a piece of navy cardstock and added just a little glitter around the edge with a silver glitter pen.

Thanks for looking - Hope you like it.
