I think it's lovely! And, living up here in the PNW, and doing a lot of hiking, I so relate to the sentiment! But I do understand how it's very difficult for any work of art to live up to the emphereal, perfect image we have in our minds. However, I also try to remind myself that the recipient never realizes it's not up to our perfectionist standards and will just enjoy receiving something special and handmade.
So many times I have an idea in my head and when I put it on paper, it goes directly to the trash. I think your card is lovely. Love the embossed faux stitching.
First of all, I think we're all our own worst critics.
But, secondly, I think you have the bones of a really nice card. Why don't you try setting it aside for a couple of days? I've done that in the past and am usually rewarded with a result far better than I hoped!
The die cut is lovely! I think we all get cars that don't turn out as well as we hoped.. Go back to it later and try again. :)
