But maybe a tone on tone sort of print

I second that thought. Wonderful job; I'm sure your Grandma is "working" with you.

my coice is the dark blue

I like the dark blue, but agree the pattern on the dark blue seems too busy. I guess it also depends on the intended recipient/location. Nice work!

I like the 2nd one in bright blue, but it looks like I'm in the minority here. They are all pretty, guess I just like bright stuff.

wow!! I would not have thought of putting a dresden plate on a color background!! Yikes!! how stodgy am I !!!! I have to agree the first one is very wow, and the other 2 are ok but I would go with that dk blue!! Yes, grandma is smiling!!!!

Also now that you have opened my poor old eyes to such possibilities I want to see your DP on red!!!!!

Uhhhhhhh ... Linda .... uhhhhhh ... my brain doesn't DO THAT! :lol:[/quote]

LOL, I know you said that before, that's why I did it for you. Smilesssssssssss and huggggs. The other thing is to just play with it till you see a pattern you like.

I like the dark blue one too, it has no descernible pattern to distract from the DPs. BTW, did you try it against a plain white background? Just for grins?

Aw, thank you both so much! How'd I miss Susie's post?! I'm not very technical :roll: :lol:
