A dove of hope spreads her message of peace on earth. It’s time to play at Festive Friday – Home of the Inspo List.
For this week’s challenge, we are inspired by the Twelve Days of Christmas. Remember, at Festive Friday, you do not need to actually celebrate or make a card for the occasion featured. Your goal is to simply use three or more items from the inspiration list on your project. I used Christmas, gold, red and heat embossing to create my card. I can’t wait to see what YOU create!

The Stampin’ Schach Design Tips
A few years ago, Stampin’ Up! released the gorgeous Detailed Dove dies. When these dies were released, I knew I would never part with them. In fact, I even purchased a second set of them, just in case something would happen to the first set. The dove forms such a gorgeous focal point. Paired with Distressed Gold specialty paper and a Cherry Cobbler/Real Red background, the dove just “pops” off the page. The Holly Berry dies collection are perfect for creating foliage and a lovely sentiment label.

I so wiah I had bought those dies. They just stay wonderful year after year. Superb card and message.
Oh, these dove dies are so beautiful, Ann, no wonder you kept them! They’re just perfect for your elegant style. Love this! That gold specialty paper is fabulous!
GORGEOUS card Ann!
I am in love with this card Ann! I kept my dove dies too (and I’m glad I’m not the only person who occasionally buys two of something ‘just in case’!!) The white of the dove is so bright against the festive gold, red and green – I am defintiely going to CASE this!
Ann, another gorgeous card. Id forgotten how beautiful the SU dove of peace is and you showcased him beautifully!
