Floral Frustration.....

[KristiK]

I just got the Floral Background and the Flowers of Gratitude at my SU party. I have spent all day looking at them, trying different things and I am so frustrated.......I HATE THEM! I looked in the gallery before I even chose them and every card looked so beautiful....I need some help and more inspiration. Ready to toss them in the garbage!

Ohhhh! Don't get frustrated!

I held off for a while on floral bkgrnd. Now that I have it I can't stop using it.

I love it, keep trying,

"Practice. Practice. Practice."
I had the same problem with a different set -- 'In Full Bloom'. Thought that I needed it. After I got it couldn't get anything right. In frustration, I went back to the gallery and totally copied a couple of cards. I mean I really copied them... even took a ruler up to the computer screen and measured just how big the strips of cardstock were in proportion to the rest of the card. After a couple of cards that looked exactly like someone else's work, I finally "got the hang of it."
Keep trying. You'll like it again in time.
