AMP: Artists' Meeting Place and Resource Collective

The Valentine Peace Project is seeking dynamic designs for peace cards. A European cardline is researching creating alternative valentine cards on peace and global unity.

There are many peace symbols already of doves and the earth - what other 'looks' are there to peace? What conveys global unity, evolution, global friendship or even Valentine's day in a tighter, technological and also back to basics sustainable society of the 21st century? Feel free to tell artist/designer friends. This is a business enterprise. Just as people buy 'green' cards I think people will start to think of peace as well as environmental organizations and buy alternative valentine cards that they know are giving back - not just a romantic card but something for a friend or a lover, a colleague, a thank you note - a blank notecard.

Please forward simple card designs, ideas or images to geminirise@gmail.com

Flowers are one image idea and a big part of The Valentine Peace Project. (There are a few photos at valentinepeaceproject.org - (a Picasa album is under News). For interesting flower designs also see the british street artist Banksy at
