honest opinions about this christmas card (updated)
I was just playing around with photoshop and came up with this card.. I'm not actually using this picture.. I have to get a good one of the kids, but I had this one handy...
Honestly, do you think it's too busy with the background?

Re: honest opinions about this christmas card
I really like the picture but think the background takes away from the picture.

Re: honest opinions about this christmas card
I like the background but agree that it might distract from the picture. How about keeping the background where the font is and using a similar solid color for behind the pic..using the border to break them up?
Love how you did the wording!

Re: honest opinions about this christmas card
I love it but I think maybe the picture should be bigger and maybe get rid of the gold border around the picture and use something plain or nothing at all around it.

Re: honest opinions about this christmas card
To be honest I didn't even see the pic at first...all I can focus on is the background. Too busy.

Re: honest opinions about this christmas card
its pretty but it does strike me as too busy. Maybe have the picture take up the whole bottom under the ribbon?

Re: honest opinions about this christmas card
I love everything except the background.
I think a plain background would be more appealing.
I love the script and picture though!!

Re: honest opinions about this christmas card
It's beautiful, you are very talented.
My only suggestion, if you want to keep the background, which I love, change the frame around the pic to something more basic.

Re: honest opinions about this christmas card
Right away I thought - too much going on! But it's a great start - I really like the background.
Some suggestions:
-love the idea of making the bottom half a solid color that matches or coordinates with the background on top behind the text.
- center the pic, make bigger and get rid of the snowflake - it doesn't really go with anything else - keep the border around the pic - I like it!!

This was my thought too. Center the picture - perhaps a larger one too.

It's really pretty but yet I agree it does seem like too much going on.

I agree! Can you do a picture with them dressed up or just in front of a fireplace or something?

Re: honest opinions about this christmas card
I love it but can the picture be bigger and the background be a little more subtle? Maybe make the word magic smaller? Beautiful colors though.

Re: honest opinions about this christmas card
I love the card but I wish the picture was a bit larger (maybe even just wider?) I don't know that is my only thought-Great job!
