I would have liked the holly card better if it had used a vertically placed sentiment along one edge of the panel. Although it was on a vertical panel, the small horizontal sentiment echoed the horizontal card base, not nearly as interesting as the juxtaposition of the cloud card.Lynne Phelpshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07182345021266611074noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9008375791436102784.post-10501616730824043292012-08-02T23:42:42.282-04:002012-08-02T23:42:42.282-04:00What a great way to use scraps.

The clean white space next to the colored card base really makes the holly image and sentiment stand out.Sheila Hhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14453580010456904917noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9008375791436102784.post-1829191801661508332012-08-02T17:24:14.687-04:002012-08-02T17:24:14.687-04:00Thanks for an idea to use some scraps.

Both of your cards are lovely, but I have a slight preference for the second one (probably because blue and white is my favourite colour combination!).Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07741064223875062517noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9008375791436102784.post-76611903278284284792012-08-02T13:31:30.965-04:002012-08-02T13:31:30.965-04:00Great cas cards!Great cas cards!Beckyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13084312435207377291noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9008375791436102784.post-8334791160494316792012-08-02T10:27:34.050-04:002012-08-02T10:27:34.050-04:00I really prefer the first one.

I especially like the cloud print card because it brings more visual interest and color.

I have a scrap of paper (I think it may have even come from an ad) with rocks on it; a friend passed on some stamps she doesn't use, one of which is a small stamp that says "you rock." I think the combo would be perfect for a card like this.

I do seem to have collected quite a few of them. And maybe it's just because it is not as busy. The clouds really get your attention so I think I prefer the small amount of stamping on the strip rather than it having an all over pattern.Colorado Crafterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01595373334246443398noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9008375791436102784.post-9773343482025523842012-08-01T22:38:28.205-04:002012-08-01T22:38:28.205-04:00Great layout!

I like the fully decorated strip, and the clouds bleeding off the strip's edges really give it the visual interest edge.Franciehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15548903306772165074noreply@blogger.com
