CAS Christmas ~ Bird

Hi friends, it is not too late to play along with us at CAS Christmas 
Susan is looking for a bird on your Christmas card!
I used a bird from Verve: Beyond Measure, I love this stamp set, it has so many awesome sentiments and the Holy family silhouette images along with the wise men.  The background was a piece I had in my stash from using brushos.  I thought it was a perfect sky background!
My die is from MFT: Peek a boo Square window.
The sentiment was embossed with HA silver Embossing powder.
 Won't you join us at CAS Christmas Card Challenge with a bird on your card?

Heart Hugs, friends!

Love that beautiful brusho background in my favourite colours! Perfect to place the sweet peace dove on, and your use of the peekaboo window adds great interest to the design.

Hi Colleen : ) This is really pretty!! I just love the brilliant blue background you created.

I am sorry I have been a bit MIA again - how is your knee feeling? Are you kicking up your heels yet?

Your dove and that silver sentiment reflect the true meaning of Jesus' birth and all the hope that He brings! Beautiful sky background too! Colleen, I am so sorry to hear that your excruciating pain has not subsided yet! I will keep you in my prayers!
