Question Christmas Card help

Here's what I have so far:


The only thing I'm not sure of is the title at the top. Can you see it well enough? I tried putting it on a journaling tag but that didn't look good either. Any ideas or is it okay? Dh is no help at all when I ask him.

*edited to add that this is going to be a folded card so our names will be on the inside following the letter.

I do think it's hard to read. Could you make it so the quote on the bottom isn't spaced so much vertically and put the title just above the quote?

With the holiday wishes you have at the bottom, I don't think you even need the Merry Christmas at the top (or anywhere else).

I don't like the Merry Xmas at the top either, it just seems to busy! Your card looks great so just 86 that top title and I think you've got a winner! GREAT FAMILY pic BTW!

I really never looked twice at this kit because it was very close to a kit from last year, Holiday Spirit, well now I have to have this too. I have almost every kit from Dani, she blows me away with her talent.

I would either - use an alpha or use a tag underneath your beautiful cluster - that says merry christmas.

Or, you could blend/fade the paper into the background a bit in the center so that the Merry Christmas show better... but sounds like you are leaving it out...

Beautiful card!!

Pam, I have that one too - it was my fave Christmas kit last year. The papers in this one are just yummy and I can't wait to use it on more than just our cards!

Stephanie and Rebecca, those are both great ideas. Now I'm going to have to play a little more before I decide. Thanks!

Super duper cute! The Merry Christmas is a bit hard to read over the pattern, but not so much that you can't read it. I love the family photo. If you want to change it, up you could move the "Merry Christmas" over the top area of the photo that is black and make it a bit smaller, so it doesn't overlap the important parts of the photo. Just a thought ... or just move it to the inside.
