Hey everyone. Today is swap Tuesday and I have a couple swaps to share. The two things I have to share are for one swap, one for me and one from me. I'll start with the thing I made.
The swap that I'm sharing is for a swap from AFTCM. For this swap we are to make a Charlotte's Web Gothic Arch. Both me and my partner made ours double sided so I have photos for each arch.

This is the front of mine. I have these really neat chipboard doors that I've wanted to use and I thought one would be perfect for this. I made the front of the gothic arch look like a barn and behind the door you can see a pig (Wilbur) looking up at a spiderweb (Charlotte). |
|
On the back of the arch, I wrote "Charlotte's Web" and then stamped webs all around it to make it look like Charlotte put it in her web. The only white ink I have is an ink daubber in Picket Fence and it didn't ink very well so I then had to cover it in white pen. I also added Charlotte to the arch by hanging her off the "b". |
I also received my arches this week so I have those to share too. Here ya go.

My partner for this swap made not one but three arches that she connected with two rings. They are so beautiful. I love that she included the rat. Rats and mice are my favorite characters in books and movies. Like Reepicheep and Roquefort. |

Here is the other side. It's got some yellow on it. That's my favorite color! |
That's it for today's swap share. I love the arches I received. I'm glad I signed up for this swap despite my severe arachnophobia. I'll be back tomorrow with Clay Wednesday where I will attemp to finish a contest that is ending sooner than I thought. TTFN Ta ta for now.
What a neat craft! I mostly stick to the basic rectangle atc but a gothic arch is a cool concept!

This reminds me of when I did a book report on Charlotte's Web in elementary school. Love the one you made and glad you got 3 wonderful arches to show off!
