12 Cards of Christmas - Card 3

This set is just the most serene and gentle Christmas set I have ever seen. It just gives me such a sense of calm and peace when I use it (maybe I should be using this one to make my Christmas cards!). I chose tranquil colours for these cards - Mellow Moss and Whisper White. Even the names are peaceful LOL

I sponged some Always Artichoke on the tree (before stamping) in the top card to make it appear to be in the foreground. It's difficult to tell from the photo, but there is glitter on the tree and on the doves too.

I love the sentiment in this set too.... "A wish for peace and happiness at Christmas and throughout the new year". It's what it's all about really, isn't it?

Materials (all Stampin' Up!)
stamps: A Wish for Peace, Soft Holly Wheel, Many Merry Messages (again!)
ink: Mellow Moss, Always Artichoke
card: Whisper White, Mellow Moss
other: Mellow Moss Taffeta Ribbon, Dazzling Diamonds glitter, Scallop Edge Punch, Eyelet Border Punch
