Sometimes I think I have a great card layout but it just doesn't come to fruition. I want to touch on my design process and how I get from the first rendition to the last when I am struggling with how it looks. I started with a card based on my original layout. I planned to use a stamp set (Amazing Year) that was in the annual catalog, but didn't seem to be used too much (that I had seen). It did not turn out good at all, in my opinion. So I sent it to my fellow demonstrators and got a few suggestions. I updated the design, but something was still off. I asked my upline for some advice and then came up with the final design. While I did ask for opinions and suggestions, I didn't always use the advice given. The process took several days because I like to step away from a project when it's not going quite as planned. The first one may have had potential, but I think I was limiting myself with a color palette since I was set on trying to use a specific DSP (designer series paper or printed paper). Once I stopped focusing on that and started focusing on the design, it turned into a really pretty card. Let me know what you think!
