Merry Christmas

I made this late last night and am not sure if it works or not. I love the red and green flower and had no idea that suede paper would look so gorgeous run through a CB embossing folder, but it's the sentiment I am not sure about. What do you think??

I think the sentiment would probably look better stamped on plain card and lifted up off the base. But otherwise the card is great.

OMG, I love that paper! What about putting the sentiment on the red strip of card stock so it stands out more?

Happy Thanksgiving! I think overall the card looks pretty good- nice clean layout and cool medallion. I don't like the sentiment stamped right on the patterned paper because it gets lost. I like the idea of embellishing the medallion but I don't think those particular leaves fit the card and look out of place with the holly.

Great card! I like the sentiment on the paper IF you could place it more in an open area so it would be more visible.

I agree with everybody else--fantastic card, the sentiment just needs to stand out more. If you want to keep stamped on the patterned paper, try embossing it instead so that it stands out more. Or take the word window punch (if the sentiment will fit inside it) and punch a hole in the patterned paper where the sentiment is. Then stamp your sentiment in the hole on the red card base. Just an idea!
