A Little Bird Told Me …… Card

This card measures 4.5ins x 4.5ins and is made using a white linen effect, hand cut card blank
I am not sure about this card ……. I think it’s one that I will have to revisit.  Using a felt self adhesive bird sticker I got from Michael’s in Las Vegas on my holiday of a lifetime holiday two years ago ……. I don’t know if the gingham really adds anything to the design ……. it is very less is more already  ….. but in losing the gingham and leaving the bird and the writing, I don’t think much will be lost …….. ??????

I like it the way it is. If it were me, I'd put a narrow neon green mat under the blue gingham, just to see what affect that would have. It might be too much, but who knows? Maybe it would be a nice touch.

This is a beautiful card, I like the gingham, but I am slightly obsessed with anything checked!

I do like gingham, but I think you're right about it not enhancing your design in this case. Love the writing and faux stitching with the birdie and the only thing I would consider adding (if anything) would be a darker mat showing a tiny border. Cliché, or what?
