It's All About Balance

It's time for another Team O challenge at TicTacToe Challenge!  Here is my design team card for the diagonal from the upper left.

I've loved the slimline cards since they first started being shown, but I'm starting to make more of them.  For me, they offer variety in layout.  I have some stamps that are overwhelming on an A2 card but work perfectly on the narrow format. 

The sentiment "balance" needed to be large and the best way to do that was down the side.  I wanted the letters to look like they were balancing on one another.

For this card, I chose my colors based on the paper.  The image is mostly neutrals with only the wrap as any significant color.  I knew I would be placing her over the pattern so I decided on a small unobtrusive one with a variety of colors. The color in this card comes mainly from the sentiment.

That's my card for today - now it's time to go eat a cupcake!
