Spirit of Peace--#tgifc290

 My card today was inspired by this week's TGIF Challenges sketch challenge:


The greeting is from the Peaceful Boughs stamp set (#150541).  The boughs and pine cone are from the coordinating Beautiful Boughs dies (#150661).  The greeting was stamped in Early Espresso ink onto Very Vanilla card stock.  The boughs were die cut out of Garden Green card stock and the pine cone out of Early Espresso card stock and a patterned paper from the Gilded Autumn specialty designer series paper pack (#153520).

The background was created with the same patterned paper from the Gilded Autumn paper pack. It was layered on a piece of Early Espresso card stock for strength before being embossed with the Pinewood Planks 3D embossing folder (#152320).  An oval was die cut in the center of this piece using the Layering Ovals dies (#151771).  This piece was then was layered over an smaller oval die cut out of Brushed Metallic card stock (#153524) to create a double oval frame around the greeting.  


A bow created with the gold metallic thread from the Forever Greenery Trim combo Pack (#152475) and a card base of Garden Green card stock complete the card.

This week's sketch is very versatile, so check out the entries for a lot of fun interpretations of this sketch.  See them at the TGIF Challenges blog here.


Have a great week!  I have lots to do before Thanksgiving company arrives.
