Signs of Peace

Ooh, I feel groovy! I was having fun looking around blogland yesterday, and came across mention of the Signs of Peace challenge over on Moxie Fab World...

Initially, I drew a blank, and was going to skip this one...but after looking at the great entries so far, they brought to mind a machine embroidery design from a hip company I love; Urban Threads, called Green Peace...

So I used the design and the challenge as inspiration for this card, and here is the result!

peace challenge

I took four types of patterned paper (from My Mind's Eye) and used my cricut (Wild Card) to cut leaf shapes then crumpled them and adhered them in the shape of the peace sign. I found the perfect background and sentiment stamps in my April 2010 Unity KOM.

I think it turned out pretty well...maybe if I try it again I'll use several different sizes of leaves...what do you think?

Thanks for looking!
