Mother and Child


The challenge at Gothic Arches this week is 'Mother & Child' and this is my interpretation.

The image comes from Joanna Sheen's 'Heavenly Cards' CD and the backing paper from www.scrapbookscrapbook.com . I used a gold calligraphy pen to edge the arch and the embellishments are all from my stash.
