Winter Wonderland

I have made this gothic arch for an inter-forum swap with a "winter" theme.
As this weeks theme over at Saturday Stampers is also Winter, this is my entry for this week.
To create the background I used water colour paints with a hint of irridecent H20's mixed in for a hint of sparkle. I also used Basic Grey rub-ons, snow flake brads, white lace, tear drop crystals and stamps from PaperBag Studio's and Art Journey.
