Default Before I make 19 more...

I need some feedback... I'm going to a cello bag swap this weekend and this is my rough draft. What do you guys think? The item inside is a post it note holder...

one stamped image, one embelliishment (i used ribbon) and layered cardstock (there's an old olive under the cameo coral).

I was really inspired by the striped paper i found tonight at the dollar tree!

I love your color combination and layout -- where does the cello bag come in -- I'm sorry -- long day at work and I am clueless...

The cello bag is attached with a post it note holder and paper clip in it. The topper is the top part of the picture...see it? It's kinda hard to make out in the scan...

When I looked at this my eye was drawn to the two sentiments, their both nearly the same size and same shape. I like the color combination and the papers. But maybe use a different sentiment for either the topper of the bag or on the post it note?

That's just what I would do. Dont want to offend you, cause it's a great little gift/swap. But thought Id throw that out there. Have a great night!

I love the clip. is the thanks so much on both sides with the clip sandwiched between? if anything I might add a 3d center to the clip. Like stamp the flower in another color & attach it on top with a glue dot or a dimensional. ( I have the little punch that punches out the rivets) Then I think your swap would be a WOW. But other then that I think it is perfect!!

I love the look and the colors. The only thing *I* see is that the topper says "thanks a million" yet the post it note holder says "Lucky Duck" To me that doesn't make sense. BUT I love the looks of it all.

If you give your stamps a good sanding with a real foam sanding block from the hardware store, the image will be much clearer inked. DOn't be afraid to realluy rub them. I have been doing it for years with solid stamps and it always improves the image.

thanks for all your comments! Especially the tip about the solid stamps...i think i'm going to try it... I cut out everything for the topper, but haven't definitely decided on the sentiment for the post it holder yet...

I love it, especially considering that you're going to have made 20 of these just to swap! What a lot of work went into this!
