Sometimes cards don't need sentiments. It's shocking, but true.
Although we normally feel that we need to add a sentiment to finish off a design, sometimes the actual design speaks for itself and feels 'finished' in its own right. And that has its advantages too - less thought about which sentiment suits a recipient, something that can double up as a card or tag or even a matching combo... sentiment-less card actually expands your possibilities rather than diminishing them.
I felt the cute little modern ornament and tree designs from the WPlus9 Holiday Trimmings stamp set were the perfect stamps to set an example:
I used a multitude of bright but pastel-toned colours for my all-over card design. Doesn't this feel like it could be a high-end wrapping paper too?!
I'd love to hear what you think of this card. Is there someone you know who'd love to receive it? Thanks for stopping by!
