This weeks Gothic Arches challenge is GOLD.
My youngest son started school for the first time last week and came home with a gold sticker on his uniform awarded to him for 'having fun' :0), so with that inspirational thought my very first contribution to the arches group is school based. 'Strive for Gold'. The metal embellishment is a paper clip (on the left) and the gold stars are German scrap.
*edit to say the main stamp is by Queen's Dresser Drawers, the clock by B LineDesigns.
And a shot to show the gold
And as I couldnt resist, heres a couple of photos - all ready on his first morning posing his various poses in his uniform as only 4 year olds can, lol.
And my fave, heehee
Thankyou, as always, for looking and taking time to visit. :0)
