Quotes & Lyrics - Harmony


So here we are at the very last entry for the Craft Barn's Quotes & Lyrics Challenge which I have managed to finish and upload just before the deadline. The words were Faith and Harmony and I immediately knew which song lyric I wanted to do BUT it has taken me an age to get to my desk and put something onto paper. Of course I could give you a link for the New Seekers version of the song but anyone who has heard the song before will remember the ad for a certain soft drink from the 70's.
I have used a Sizzix Peace diecut as a stencil in the background with various other stamps and stencils. The singer is a Non Sequitur stamp coloured with coloursoft pencils and raised on foam pads for added dimension. The 'hands around the globe' image is computer generated. So that's that - a full year of challenges completed - now all that remains is to bind the pages together and visit all the other entries. Thanks for all your kind comments. We shall see what 2015 has in store for us.
Edited to add: Here's a round-up of all my entries:

    Beautifully depicted, lots of colour and perfect to finish the challenge on.
