Gothic Arches - Matchbox

The challenge at Gothic Arches was to use a matchbox with your arch. Mine is shown with the matchbox drawer pulled out showing the Paper Whimsy girl. I've used Glimmer Mists through lace and on lace in creating the arch and added Graphic 45 paper butterflies. I liked the contrast with the blue French stamp. The matchbox is wrapped with French text paper and stamped with an ornate frame stamp from Melissa Frances.
