Do you do this?

I wasn't happy with my card after posting my Beate's Sketch Challenge #4.

I know it looked nice but I felt it needed more "weight" on the left hand side and the sponged primas weren't doing it for me.

There was an inbalance of "colour power" on that card - the pink was too heavy on the right side - that didn't sit right with me.
How do I fix that? I thought maybe I should change the scalloped mat to Blush Blossom for a softer look or change out the flowers.

I opted to change the flowers.

I picked them off and replaced them will all white prima flowers (all the same kind) and added some pink micro beads to the centres.

Here's the BEFORE photo:



Here's the AFTER photo close up:



AND here's the AFTER photo of the card.




Now it looks done to me!

  1. Yep, you're right, the re-done card does look more balanced. I do the exact same thing with my cards! It's no wonder I never get a lot done!
