Welcome to Becca's Heart for Creativity blog! Oh, my heart and soul gets excited when an autumn season is cool-warm and you can enjoy long sleeves, lightweight sweaters, and hoodies! Looks like this might be the year for a great fall!
It was a bit shaky with a frightening 96 degrees on the Tuesday before the 1st day of fall. Then 2 days later overnight temps dropped into the upper 40s! And the weather has continued to be a roller coaster. Leaf colors are at their peak this 3rd week of October. But instead of doing a Halloween bat or crow winged project I decided to go with a dove Christmas card. Competition starts October 21 and ends November 3 for My Time To Craft's #493 theme.
Peace on Earth:
Notes: the silver and white snowflakes are 'dazzles' from Paper Wishes website; the decorative tape might be Scotch brand but I'm not sure; the others have been in my scraps or stash supply boxes
Simple yet unified by colors and lets the dove show well against that gorgeous silver and white holly specialty textured paper. Below the dove in very fine script is "Peace on Earth".
