I am asking a friend to take some of my cards along to swap at Convention. I don't want to send something she'd be embarassed by....
I just got this set yesterday and I love it I tried 2 variations of the card I had in my head with this using the Dashing paper. Also, the red paper is the new textured stuff - it doesn't show in the photo.
I would love suggestions to improve on these.
Do you prefer the twill or the taffeta ribbon, or is that just a distraction? Two rows or three of the dotted paper? Should I do some paper piercing in some corners? Help?! I really am open to suggestions. All my cards are so simple - I really want something people would swap for and not want to throw it away once they get to their hotel room...

I prefer the one with 3 rows. I think it looks more balanced than the one with 2 rows. May be add some glitter on the tree to add a little sparkle to the card.

This is so cute! I think they both work... personally I lean towards the one on the left (three row, twill tape), but I would be happy with either of them. Honestly, you have good colors going on, quality work... that's what I look for mostly. Nothing sloppy, smudged, or super funky (just can't get into Handsome Hunter and Only Orange myself!) Nice work!

I don't think your friend will be embarassed with any card you choose. I like them both. I will do the taffeta ribbon just because is more economical and 3 rows of dotted paper and as for piercing I will go for it. Maybe a little glitter too. Great job on both cards.
