Gothic Arch Challenge

 Hi! I am back to join in the challenge ''Text''
After a sad few weeks, I thought, on this dreary Sunday afternoon, it would be as good a time as any, to get the craft stuff unpacked, and do something.  So here is my effort.

I have used the new Stazon Metallic ink pad, but a word of warning. When using this, don't jump when the phone rings ! It is very difficult to remover from your carpet  eeek!
So, I stamped the Chinese text with the bronze, and the bird/twig and postage stamp, with the silver.

Raffia, and charms I bought at Ally Pally, then Krylon pen round the edges,
