<\/a><\/p>\nNow, of course… if you don’t know what I did wrong… you won’t know what this picture is really all about.\u00a0 It’s the foil… but I don’t mind this foil here… I just didn’t like it as much.\u00a0 But, I still feel like there is something missing or too much added or something.\u00a0 Maybe it’s the brightness of the copper in the back with is drawing my attention away?\u00a0 I don’t know.<\/p>\n
What say you?\u00a0 What is wrong with the cards… what would you have done differently?<\/p>\n
Oh – and that mistake I made… When I ran the foil through the Big Shot in the Embossing Folder, I forgot to do any distressing to it first.\u00a0 (FYI – this technique is called “tarnished metal”.)\u00a0 So, I set it aside and tried again.\u00a0 But then, I didn’t think the embossing was deep enough, so I ran the second one through again… but the wrong way! I DE<\/strong>bossed instead of EM<\/strong>bossed.\u00a0 Ugh!\u00a0 But, I kept working with it and didn’t seem like it would work.\u00a0 I went back to the other silver foil snowflake to see if I could reclaim it.\u00a0 It didn’t turn out bad.\u00a0 I just liked the other one better.\u00a0 Couldn’t let it just go to waste so I tried to create a card with it… but my brain wasn’t functioning and I got the card above!<\/p>\nNow… it’s not a terrible card.\u00a0 At least, I don’t think it is.\u00a0 But, it’s just not hitting that “great” card spot in my soul.<\/p>\n
Does a card have to hit you like that for you to consider it worthy?\u00a0 What do you do with it if it doesn’t?\u00a0 This one will probably be my nephew’s Christmas card this year! You better not tell\u00a0 him this was a cast-off!<\/p>\n
Well… Until next time… keep it simple, Stampers!<\/p>\n
