Peace on Earth

  I am entering this card at Jingle Belles this week for the "Peace on Earth" challenge:  incorporate the peace symbol, the word peace, or create a card that evokes peace for you.  Yesterday I had a brief chance to go in my craft room and open my My Mind's Eye Lost & Found Christmas collection.  The dove evokes peace for me, and when I saw this MME tag I knew I would create my card around it.  I stamped "believe" in the top left corner of the tag and used this sketch by the lovely Kirsty.

  What evokes peace for you?

Supplies:
All papers and the brad are from the My Mind's Eye Lost & Found Christmas collection.  The "believe" is a Memory Box stamp inked with Stampin' Up! chocolate chip.  The ribbon is from my stash jar.  The scallop is an MFT die and the decorative label (damask pattern) is a Nestibilities die.

Happy Wednesday!
