Nice entries everyone! I will provide feedback for the latest ones:

1)dotFreya: 1st entry: That is a cool concept. I guess the bird forgot to fly south for the winter! Nicely done. Very clean and simple.

2)dotFreya: 2nd entry: I like this one, it actually reminds me of a Christmas postcard that a company sent me last year. Another clean design.

3)GRAF1CS: 1st entry: Very nice photo montage, and a nice blending of images. I would put a small outline around the text to make it stand out a bit more from the tree.
2nd entry: I don't care for this one as much, but its still a nice card. Would it open up, or is it a postcard? I would like to see more added to this, a Happy Holiday greeting or Merry Christmas......

4) slbergh: entry #2: You need to do something else with the font. There is too much bevel and the gradient is too harsh, in my opinion. Maybe try to make it stand out by doing some other font treatments. Other than that, a cute entry. I totally understand about the 1st entry, I have the same problem myself sometimes

Zpsy, I consider the desert card complete, but if you would like to post another view or enter a new concept, please feel free to do so.

Thanks for the great entries everyone!

Vicki

Thank you for the positive feedback.

I guess the bird forgot to fly south for the winter!

Acctually where I live the bullfinch stays over winter time.
I saw one out of the window and got my inspiration from there.

Zpsy: I really like your new entery with Christmas in space

Looks good BumbleBee but it is bit hard to read Xmas though. I think slight alteration of the placements and text coloring would improve this design allot.

Hi everyone time for more feedback

1)Zpsy: 2nd entry: Beautiful. I really like this one too. Consider this entry complete.

2)Slbergh: 1st entry: Thanks the garland looks great now. Nice work. Consider this entry complete. 2nd entry: The font looks much better now, but is still not to my preference. It could be just me though

Consider it complete.

3)Bumblebee_Dsgn: I saw that Chung Dha (thanks Chung Dha) gave a little feedback on this one already. It is an awesome card, I really like the direction.

4) slbergh: 3rd entry: I love love this card. It is really cool and I like the message. Please consider this entry complete.

the HO-HO-HO image is very simple. Instead of that, you can add some background like snow. or take a picture on the cold camping area then make as a background.

Nice. Because I saw your previous image (unmodified) with red background its very simple. It seems it is not related to Christmas. It is just ordinary text OH-OH-OH. Then, I saw your edited or updated image, I like and it relates to Christmas. Nice!! Keep up the good work. You have now a chance to win the fabulous prizes.
