Hampton Art Card - Ornaments

Welcome back, card lovers! I've got another Christmas card for you today - this time paying homage to ornaments.

This is totally not one of my better efforts. The more I look at it, the more I'm not quite sure where it went wrong or how to fix it - lol! I think losing the ornament patterned paper would be a great start, though.

What was I thinking...?
