Dove of Peace

Another card with a Christian sentiment, this one was made with a lovely Woodware stamp that I got at the SECC in October.
 This is for a lady to give her son, who is in his twenties, so I've gone easy on the bling, used knotted ribbon rather than a bow, and opted for kraft tones for a masculine look.  The dove image was stamped and heat embossed with white powder onto kraft card, I added some small white pearls to pick out elements of the design.  The sentiment was computer generated, and I finished off with a trio of brown gems.

I'm entering this card in the following challenges -
Crafty Sentiments - Christmas
Love Rubber Stamps - #82 - Christmas
Oldie but a Goodie - Winter - my old stash is the paper pack
Tuesday Throwdown - #176 - What Christmas Means to You - The true meaning of Christmas for me!
