The Signs of Peace Challenge Winners

I am at "peace" with my decisions, friends, although they were, once again, very difficult to make. All y'all just continue to "wow" me with your approaches to our challenges here in the Moxie Fab World! Thanks to everyone who gave this a go, and congratulations to our five moxie fab winners! Check it:

Peace & Love Card by Clouds :D

Moxie Fab Alert: This card is trendy on oh-so-many levels. The text background (have you seen our feature on text in the September/October issue yet?), the color treatment using a yummy palette of ink sprays, the peace sign that stands out in its black and white pattern, and the typographical treatment of the sentiment. The pairing of the two-fingered peace sign with the actual peace sign ain't bad, either!

Peace, Love, & Happy Birthday Card by Colleen K.

Moxie Fab Alert: I love that this card just feels so "happy." It reminds me of a t-shirt I used to have. It had a peace sign, a heart, and Mickey Mouse ears, so it read "Peace, Love, & Mickey Mouse." Who wouldn't want to receive this fun-loving card for her birthday?

Peace Card by Lisa Brown

Moxie Fab Alert: Lisa didn't have any peace sign product when she decided to enter this challenge, so she created her own mask. Moxie ingenious!

Peace Within Card by Karla Kroese

Moxie Fab Alert: To me, this card channels my inner hippie. With the denim background, the calico print on the peace sign, and that sweet sentiment, I'm feeling a Kumbaya moment coming along. Who's with me?

The Sky's the Limit Card by Deb Neerman

Moxie Fab Alert: I'm all over the clever idea of using peace signs as balloons. And the sentiment? Just the perfect, moxie fab touch.

Which is your favorite and why, friends? I'm sure these ladies would love for you to leave them some love!

Winners, please send me your addresses in an email to cedvalson@papercraftsmag.com with "Sings of Peace Challenge Winner" in the subject line. I can't WAIT to hear from you!

Make sure you tune in tomorrow, friends. I've got a challenge of an altogether different variety for you and can't wait to share!

Peace out,

~Cath

PS Did you see? There's a brand new Trigger in town. Check it out and get inspired to create! You have until Sunday at midnight!

I love the denim look of the "Peace Within" card, very pretty and so simple. I really like how the peace sign looks like fabric, gives it that look of texture only using paper...very fab!

Congrats to all the winners! Fabulous designs, but I think my favorite is Deb's peace sign balloons! Love the bright colors and all the white space!

Chriss Blagrave said...

Congratulations to all of the winners!
I especially love the Peace within card from Carla. It reminds me of my very first bedding ensemble that I had as a very young bride (21) a Laura Ashley bedding ensemble that had the same blue and white floral.
I love how Carla placed the floral Peace sign against the dark background!

Congrats ladies!! These are all so awesome!!!! I love the one with the peace mask- since she didn't have any 'peace' product- made me slap my forehead & say 'why didn't I think of that?'!!! :)
