:::Guardian Angel:::

Our challenge this week is to create something using the theme “Guardian Angel”. Our hostess this week Anne Jones made this beautiful arch using different elements and a lovely quote. How do you interupt guardian angels? Heaven above? sweet cherubs? Angels among us? We would love to see your gothic arch creations here!

A bit about our hostess…

There’s not a lot more to be said about me that isn’t already in my profile. I am married with two absolutely wonderful little boys who are my life. This year my DH and I celebrate 10 years of wedded bliss and I am planning a big party for our anniversary as we only had a very quiet wedding at The Blacksmiths Cottage in Gretna..

Thanks to programmes like “Blue Peter” and “Vision On”, I have always felt inspired to create. One of my earliest craft memories was getting told off in a Geography lesson for not listening – instead I was too busy trying to work out how I was going to get that cheese box, toilet roll tube and cotton reel to resemble a carousel! I did eventually create my masterpiece but to this day I still don’t know where Angola is! LOL!

I hope my Guardian Angel inspires you, and I look forward to seeing all your fabulous arches! Have fun!
