Creative Knockouts #129 - In Stitches

This week's Creative Knockouts challenge is sponsored by The Paper Shelter.  I am using their image,  called Hope.  I used a darker color for the background so the dove would pop.  The shading of her face and eyes came out just lovely - wish I could say the same for the turquoise streaks in her hair.  Such is how it goes when playing around with coloring! You can relate, right?!?

Mojo Monday's sketch was my design basis  and I added some flowers from W Plus 9's Fresh Cut Florals and a "peace" die cut to complete my card.
I hope you will play along with our In Stitches challenge this week.
