A fix...

If it isn't broken, fix it till it is. -Unknown


I made a card last week for a sketch challenge...and I looked at it and I looked at it, and I didn't like it. After posting it and receiving some very helpful feedback and looking at it some more, I decided to take it apart and rework it...I went with my usual stand by...black! All I did is take it apart and mount everything on black and add some subtle BG stamping on the pink CS.

Here is the original:








And the fix:

What do you think? Was it worth the extra effort?

  1. You're right. The original card wasn't broke...but the new and improved card is now outstanding! Time and effort well spent and a good lesson in how to kick up a card a notch!

  2. Oh wow, that does make it look different. The black really makes everything pop and really stand out. Definitely worth it!

    The black really makes it POP, but the original was also cute.

  4. Your first card is very nice but it is amazing how the tiny bit of black paper just "finishes" the card. I like it!!

  6. Okay, so the old version was good. Fine. But not fabulous. I would have never said that until I saw it with the pop of black! What a difference. I will remember this trick now since I have seen the difference it makes! Great job!
