Ok...I need your opinions here. I love this background stamp. In fact, I've had it for months and just now dug it out to use it. (Can't believe I'm actually admitting to it!) But the more I look at it, the more I wonder..."Is this too busy?" Hmmmm. Let me know what you think! TFL! Becky

Honest...it is too busy for me. The times where I've seen this background used and I liked it was when it was done tone on tone. I love the design of your card -- the borderline at the bottom and the way you laid out the focal panel.

Some cards are just busier than others and that's part of the beauty and individuality of each one; one way you could tone it down a little is to stamp off, THEN do the background. But I like the crisp, strong background; it contrasts nicely with the softer aspect of the main image and embellishments.

I think it's great and not too busy at all. I love the colors and the style you used. I really love that bg stamp, almost bought it from the last party, but got the french script one first. Great job.
