In my neverending quest to finish Christmas cards this year, I thought this was a perfect card to case. I changed up the image~although it is still a dove~ b/g paper and added some silver pearls, glitter and a double decorative border.
I really didn't think this was going to come together at all. I still think the image panel is missing something, but maybe the dove should be the star of the show.
I used the script ef on the blue b/g patterned paper and swiss dots on the white image cardstock. Added some dazzling diamonds to the dove and the edges of the rectangular sentiment. Some pearls, some nesties, border punch and ribbon and it was good to go. I also popped up several of the layers on dimensionals.
Thanks so much for taking the time to look and if you have a moment, let me know what you think.

Another great version of the 'blues' Pam! Love the scallops and the silver ribbon and the pearls... You're going to have all your Christmas cards done before I even get started!!! Great case...

I see you are back to blue and I LOVE IT! That is a beautiful dove and I really don't think the card needs another thing. Beautiful ribbon, scallops, pearls, and dove....nothing else needed. I hope you don't burn out getting all these Christmas cards made. I don't think you will but you really have a lot to make. CRAFT ON!!!!!!!!!!

Fruitcake, how fabulous is this! Whoa, you brought together such beautiful elements here. Love all the bling and the script folder. The image really makes those blinged out scalloped edges almost come to life. Beautiful card, you fruitcake!
