Too funny! And that's why my father wouldn't let my sister and I put on the tinsel - because we threw it on in clumps rather than strand...... by........ strand...... Your clustered ornaments look lovely!

Those ornaments are beautiful, Anne.
Your inside sentiment made me smile. I admire all the beautifully dressed trees I see - but I have enough trouble stringing lights evenly without worrying about how the tinsel looks, and most of my decorations are one-off holiday treats or gifts. No OCD on my tree, that's for sure. But it will never look as elegant as this card does.

I like how you hung your three ornaments on three branches. One year when I was a kid I hung all the ornaments on the tree--and I organized them! We had 3 or 4 Flintstones ornaments and I put them all together, and then I put Kermit and Miss Piggy right next to each other, and the handmade bead ornaments went together, and so on... My mom came in and "fixed" it.
Gorgeous ornaments!!! Same way here! I usually have to rearrange some of the ornaments that my family put up!!! Makes me a little crazy to have bare spots and clumps of ornaments!!!

I'm glad you told us what the inside said! I think your card it lovely. I really like the splatters on the background piece, and the ornaments are bright and beautiful! Great card!
