Peace for Tomorrow

Hi friends!  It's Monday morning and that means it's time for a brand new sketch over at Mojo Monday.  And since it's the last Monday of the month, it's tall & skinny week.  My card measures 3.5" x 5.5" and I kept it pretty simple, as I just wanted it to speak peace to the recipient.



The stamps are all from the Each Day set.  I started by stamping the cross in soft sky on a petite oval die cut and then stamping over it with the do not worry sentiment in black.  I matted this on a black petite scallop oval and added some black liquid pearls as accent.  The butterfly is embossed in white on soft sky, then hand trimmed and accented with some small rhinestones.  I took a scrap of soft sky that was embossed with the chicken coop embossing folder, cut it in half and added it as my vertical strips, then embossed the flourish stamp in white on the black and added a couple rounded corners and a teeny rhinestone to finish things off.

Thanks so much for stopping by today.  I hope you have a week filled with peace, comfort and all the good things in life that money can't buy.
