Christmas Card #3

Hello Crafers!
Well, here's my card I told you about yesterday.
Although I don't usually do simple cards, I do like the way this one turned out. I found this dove in the ornament section of Wal-mart last year.  I thought I only had one package but feel fortunate to have found another one.  So I will be making 24 of these.  I didn't get a close up of the sparkly paper yet but I will soon.  I popped up the dove to give the card a little more dimension and added a bow and a bling dot for the eye.  The background stamp is from the Keepsakes Ornament set from Stampin Up.  The little snowflake is from another acrylic set (don't remember which one at the moment).  I didn't add my Champagne Mist spray to this card because I wanted the dove to stand on it's own.  That's it.
