Gothic Arches this week is creating an ATC size (2.5 x 3.5″) arch. I enjoy this size very much and can finally show you mine.
The last detail in our computer issues was getting the printer up and running again = yippee! As much as I like rubber stamps and words cut from books, I do use computer generated words a lot… easy to size and find the font that is just right.
I used a piece of 1/8 inch thick craft wood that Mr Magpie cut for me some time ago. I have some tiny ones too…Love arches in every shape and size!

Lovely arch. That “tunnel” gives it a nice 3D effect. The background is interesting too…

Love this work…. Hallway is wonderful! Thanks for sharing. Sorry about your computer – it does take a lot out of you when you have one gone wrong!

I just love it Patty and I love that thin craft wood
I know what you mean about the words, and printing, I think we would be lost without that.

I can’t believe how long it’s been since I’ve been to your blog. I’ve missed out on so much, including this wonderful ATC. Your work always inspires me, and this piece is no exception. You always seem to know just which image to use and where. I can’t believe that arch is only ATC size. Mr. Magpie must be very proficient with a band saw.
