I'm going to attempt to attach pictures of my current version of the Christmas Card I'm trying to make. What else does it need? Is it too much? Is it not enough? It's done on Bashful Blue paper using Silver Encore ink, White SU craft Ink, Bliss Blue and Brocade Blue inks. The snowflake on the outside tag is also embossed with holographic embossing powder. The "Warm Winter Wishes" on the inside is embossed in silver. Silver wire cord and white organza ribbon (non-SU). Non-SU silver brads and non-SU snowflake brad. SU snowflake punch. What do you think? Be honest - I can take it!!;)
I wouldn't change a thing--I think it is very pretty the way it is! I really like the idea of the shaped insert instead of the "regular" card...and I love the blue and silver together!

I agree it is beautiful. I think some texture on the flap (not a lot, just to compliment the rest) and a small sentiment on the lower left corner. Although if you decide to leave it as is it is more than fine.
What a beautiful card! I love it. You don't "need" to change a thing. But as we all like to "perfect" our work. The only suggestion I have is same as above. The pocket has lovely stamping and the flap is blank. Perhaps you could use the snowflake punchie underr the white snowflake (was that a button) or emboss as suggested above.... Don't get me wrong, if you do nothing its great as it is! HTH
What a beautiful card! The snowflakes are so pretty! My only possible suggestion, would be to maybe ink around the edges (maybe in vanilla white or light blue) of the pull out so they pop out a little more from the actual card. It's really just wonderful as it is thoguh.
And since you asked - the flap looks a little naked to me, too. My thought was to stamp the small silver snowflakes scattered on the flap.
I think your whole concept is beautiful.

The card is reeally nice. It needs not a thing. IF you wanted to tweek it , i agree with the rest of the "panel", do somesnowflakes on the flap. As it is, it is beautiful! Taishea
What else does it need?
Its gorgeous as it is!
