Default Again Please, Opinions Please

Did another card and attached that one that two. I decided I was not happy with the first one. What do you think of the second, made with say it simple.

Thank you all for your help, I am having the hardest time coming up with a card I am happy with.

This is going to be my Christmas Card this year. Used one of the Sketch Challenges for my layout. Did the Shimmer on the Burgundy. What do you ladies think? Please be honest, I can take it.

Thanks

Tina

Oooooh, very pretty! If I had to make any teeny tiny suggestion at all, the only thing I would say is maybe add a sentiment? Not necessary at all, but just a thought. Love the sparkle!

Very nice. I liked the plain and simpleness of it. The gold ribbon was an added bonus.

Love, love, love the ribbon. Maybe make the tree a bolder green or emboss it or something? It may just be the scan, but it doesn't pop like the ribbon.

I love the non-traditional colors--I always try to go with anything that is NOT red or green for Christmas. Love the card.

I like your card as well! Stacy's idea to add a sentiment is a good one - what about on the extra CS underneat the tree & ribbon?

I agree with this too. Otherwise, it's beautiful and I wouldn't change a thing!

Is the layer behind the tree gold........my monitor is having a hard time making that out. I did like the suggestion of a sentiment. If it was my card, I would tear one side of the brown/gold layer behind the blue to give it more interest and show a little less of that layer. It is dark and your eye wants to go right to that layer instead of the image. Other than that, I love the colors and the images you used on them!

I like your first card but I REALLY like the second one! If I were to make any tiny suggestion it would be change the ribbon on the second one...or perhaps it's just my monitor. It's probably lovely in real life! I think a cord, hemp, etc. Just a thought...but it is super as is!
