I made this spinner card for my FILs birthday. I think it needs more though. Any suggestions, please?? I would like to do more in this style, maybe for Father's Day. CASED this from someone, but their scene was so much better!

This is where I got the idea from. Her background is cooler, but I don't have the patience to make all those little trees like she did. Anyway, thanks for looking! Oh, and I also did two pennies so the truck slides, doesn't spin. Gallery at Splitcoaststampers

Kari...very cute, I also love the idea of some liquid applique for snow, or maybe just a background stamp on the grey piece, or maybe a couple of brads.

I think I agree with Kiersten... (sorry if I spelled it wrong.) I also know I am probably too late. I would even maybe make it a bit shorter. Not too much. Maybe brillaint blue to make it pop more. I don't know. I'm a doer to see if things work...sorry.

I would just stamp more trees in the background in varing colors of green, maybe just emboss a few. to give it more depth either way you've given me some ideas to go & play with my Loads of love more. I used the smalls bubbles(uncertain if that is the correct name) cuttlebug A2 folder to make a road with texture, maybe doing that to your grey piece would give it more depth. I only say that because I noticed some of your other postings use the cuttlebug. I hope this isnt annoying
