    This is simply stunning. I love the embossed snowflakes and the dark blue c/s. The dove and the sentiment just made me catch my breath. Just what this earth needs and all of us need peace in our hearts. I haven't been around much to read your blog but I scrolled through and your tags are just wonderful. I love the gingerbread man and the gold trees are gorgeous. Have a relaxing, wonderful holiday.

    This is one of my fave SU Christmas stamps. Love what you did with the Island Indigo and white combo on the snow flurry EF....very striking yet serene.

    It's breathtaking in the simplicity of the design. A wonderful image for this particular time in our world too. The bird is lovely die cut from the pretty dp, and looks stunning against that crisp white embossed design. TFS & Hugs

    So glad you rescued that lovely dove from your UFO box! I haven't pulled that stamp out this year - must do so! Love it heat embossed on the blue, and it's perfect set against that embossing folder.
