Honesty thread: Pretty! I think if you matted red under the black and then mounted the whole front on the red too (this I think will make the plaid background really pop) it will really do the trick. I should use my stipple plaid more!!

Honesty: I think the black is too dark with that background. However, if you do mat the plaid with red or black, it might do enough to even it all out. I love the concept (great use of the hardware) -- and I am such a sucker for plaid (I'm still kicking myself for not buying this set!).

BH Tread: I think the card needs to be mounted on darker color. Seems like a lot of white space. Maybe make the background darker & the center image lighter. I like the way you added the clip to it.

BH thread - the only thing I'd change would be to trim down the plaid and mat it on dark cardstock.. either black or red. Great card.. love the main focal point!
