What does Everything Eleanor need?

What does my Everything Eleanor card design need? It seems a little dull to me. I used Designer Series Paper, punches, sponging, Stampin' Dimensionals, some Crochet Trim and a Basic Pearl (in the middle of the flower). Yet, I think that I need to "step it up" a bit. But how?

Everything Eleanor - such a beautiful stamp set

 I added a little bit of Basic Black to make the Calypso Coral pop. But it's still not enough. And I handled the pieces so much, that I made a little tear on the right side of the striped paper. Sigh! It wasn't my best crafting day.

Everyone needs a little design help from time to time. It's like every other skill – the more you use it, the better you become at using it. But even when you work the skill often, you can hit a slow day. That's where I am.

This stamp set is so beautiful. It has lots of detail in the flowers, an interesting texture in the background stamp and a variety of elements. All these in a single stamp set. If you're looking to make a small investment go far, this is definitely the stamp set for you!

For now, I think I need to give this card design more thought. If you have a suggestion, please leave me a comment below. I'd love to hear from you! What does my Everything Eleanor card design need?

  1. Thanks, but I still think it needs something. Maybe the sentiment should be black, or maybe black edges on the elements behind the scallop punch. I just don’t know…

  2. Looks great to me, so clearly this is why I need to attend your classes! lol

    Black, white, coral — how can you go wrong?
