More about the Symbols:
Dove as a Peace symbol
Doves, usually meaning domesticated Rock Pigeons, are a traditional Christian symbol of love and peace, (see Peace dove) and are white.
Noah's Ark
According to the biblical story (Genesis 8:11), a dove was released by Noah after the flood in order to find land; it came back carrying an olive leaf in its beak, telling Noah that, somewhere, there was land. Christians used Noah's dove as a peace symbol.[2]
The Holy Spirit
In Christian Iconography, a dove also symbolizes the Holy Spirit, in reference to Matthew 3:16 and Luke 3:22 where the Holy Spirit is compared to a dove at the Baptism of Jesus.

The tree represents life, death, and resurrection. It buds new in Spring, ripens in Summer, withers in Fall and dies in Winter, but awakens anew in the endless cycle of life.
The tree of life was mentioned in the bible several times, in sefer torah Bereshit - book of Genesis and Mishley - book of Proverbs. The kabbalah depicts the tree of life in the form of ten interconnected nodes, using the tree represent a map of creation.
