PTI challenge -- Improving a Card
Papertrey Ink is on the last day of challenges and contests for its 10th anniversary event, and I've had a lot of fun participating. Today's challenge was to redesign a card you didn't particularly like, keeping in mind some of the tips that have been presented over this event.
I wasn't crazy about this one. I liked the feathers...the burgundy background not so much.
To rework this design, I cut a mat with the Rectangles die, backed it with black, and added a few feathers from What the Doodle: Feathers stamp/die set, leaving one hanging off the popped-up mat. Still not my favorite card ever, but I like it a lot better!

Oh yes, I love how the colors pop against the background, and they really look like they are floating with the new offset placement. So pretty!
ReplyDeleteOh this is so nice! Love the look of the feather floating off the mat -- really makes a difference!
ReplyDeleteAdele, very very pretty! The rectangle with the black background, great choice!
ReplyDeleteVery pretty...love the transformation and the black peeking through!! Great idea!
ReplyDeleteThey are both great, Adele, but I have to say I like the jewel tones of the first one better! I love the burgandy textured background! I'll bet it would photograph smashingly against a white or gray solid bg. I'm going to pin it as I love the colors you used on the feathers! Hugs, Darnell
