It could indeed be a mesh in the world of deco exchanging and gothic arches! I adore Gothic Arches so very much and have only create 2 of these gorgeous exchanges in my past... but when I was catching up with my creations I had a unique challenge of creating an odd shaped deco. Of course I only create untaped and artistic decos these days... so I was trying to figure out an interesting shape to create as well as something that could be artistic. Then my urge to create a Gothic Arch over came me and I came up with this unique twist of meshing the two together =)
So now we have a Gothic Arch themed Deco... woo hoo! I wanted to make this deco so that each individual that participates will create their own individual arch in their own choice of theme, and the owner of the deco can then cut away the side where they are sewn together and use each arch in different ways, so they are not all together, or keep them together as a book. Either way, each individual will sign the back of the arch instead of the front of it so there is more art on the arch and the labels do not take away from that.... Interesting aye? I hope to create more of these too... it was a really fun project for me =)
I basically cut the main arch but added a side to it. I sewed blank arches in between the cardstock arches using cross stitch. I used my chocolate brown stamp pad to stamp the speckles all over the arch. I then hand drew the design with markers. And WAH-LAH! =)

When we start to exchange our decos, you ::must!:: create one for me to see up close, so I can sign it, and try to use it as a guide and attempt the procedure! This type of thing I need to ::see!:: in order to understand! I *love!* the whole concept you used! And, aren't those Arches, delishly addictive!? Ha! I like how the cover has a tattoo art inspiration to it! =) I *love* the whole layout! *winks*
