Wow, this is so beautiful. Love all those blues. The white embossing adds a lovely touch. I also like how you stamped the snowflakes all over. This would make a great card to mass produce. Especially works for being a "mailable" card.

Wow ... gorgeous card Maura!! The dove is so beautiful. And love the sponging of the blue with the lighter to highlight the dove. Adding that little bit of water really made the colors blend ... love the misty effect. Beautiful card as always ... thanks so much for joining us at ATS&M!
