Also, I find the layout on the second is more interesting, and the color is more saturated giving the design more "punch". So, I have to lean towards card 2, even though I love the flower in #1. Funny how that works sometimes!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03835448913758132227noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9008375791436102784.post-81367194573821280572013-07-15T06:20:41.989-04:002013-07-15T06:20:41.989-04:00Hi Susan, I liek them both but I prefer the top c...Hi Susan, I liek them both but I prefer the top card because I also have that stamp and it's one of my all time favourites.

Both are fine, just like the openness of the top flowers. I was always told my taste is all in my mouth! I follow your blog daily and am learning a LOT. I still think of you every time I clean up clutter and create white space in my home!

After reading your words of wisdom and all the comments, I logged out then came for another look - and now like the second one just a bit more. Very interesting discussion.

I have really enjoyed all the cards you have been posting lately...they are very inspiring. If I ever get time to stamp again (I'm in school full time now), your blog will be the first place I look for inspiration. :)Karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06921796643732720523noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9008375791436102784.post-52049312832207170972013-07-10T17:27:01.349-04:002013-07-10T17:27:01.349-04:00They both make me happy, although the second appea...They both make me happy, although the second appeals to my 'neat and tidy' streak!
