Ribbons or buttons

Hi there,first I would like to thank you all for the lovely comments you gave me for my very first entry to the less is more challenges and blogging.No wonder this challenge site is so popular! It has encouraged me to try this weeks challenge.Although not sure if I'm happy with it to be honest.(and the quality of the picture is poor too but this was the best of the lot - sorry ) No.1 son said it was a bit boring done in black and white,and no.2 son is away to cadet camp(missing him heaps he's the chatterbox along with me and it is SO quiet!!!!)so can't get his opinion,but maybe one of you will tell me.Think maybe I should have added some pink gems to the flowers to brighten it up???? , ah well too late now...
   Can I also ask if you could spare some time to check out an older post called "bags of problems "and would be grateful for any suggestions. Thanks. x

    I always think black and white looks so classy - it's a super card (it doesn't need any colour added) x

    I think the simplicity of the design and the black and white makes it stand out all the more. x

    FAB card Jenni
    That isn't boring at all, it would even work without the extra flower...honest! lol Just add a contrasting gem to the larger central flower.
    Anyway yours is perfect, just explaining, that even less works too...scary that it seems
    Super design

    Thanks so much

    This is beautiful Jenni and it's perfect just as it is. Sometimes Less really is More, but it is very tempting to "add something else" isn't it!
    Thank you so much for visiting my blog today - hugs, Sylvia x
    PS I hope you are enjoying your blogging.
