There are times when I finish a card and wonder: Did I add too many elements to the card front? Did I not add enough bling? Is the card too busy, boring, or just plain? What do you do? 

Stamps:

   Adhesive

First, I dry embossed a Basic White card front, using the Joined Together 3D Embossing Folder.

I then took the Soft Sea Foam ink pad and gently rubbed the left side of the embossed image.

Next, I used the Seaside Spray ink pad on the middle section of the embossed image. You must use a gentle touch.

I then took the Petal Pink ink pad and gently ran it down on the right side of the embossed image.

Next, I adhered two strips of Paper Blooms DSP and adhered them on the left side of the card front. I used patterned paper, but you can turn these into solid strips of paper if you think the card front is too busy.

I then stamped a sentiment on the Petal Pink strip, using Night of Navy ink. 

Next, I snipped the end to form the pointy arrow as shown above.

I then attached the sentiment to the card front, using dimensionals.

Lastly, I added a few wooden elements (2 Circles and a directional arrow), a glitter sequins, and a Basic White panel to the card front.
