Lots of things to like, but I for one don't care for the angel halo look over your children - to me makes it look like they have 'passed on'
Which I sincerely hope they haven't.

Also the lines under words break it up a bit, removing them would be good and create a bolder image.

Apart from that pretty nice.

Have to agree, I'm not crazy about the halo effect. I do like the image overall though.

Might also be nice to have the gradient run behind the children or perhaps be less intense when passes over them.

In my opinion, the picture looks quite over-done. The snow on the face of the boy on the right is distracting, looks like toothepaste. I think the head coverings make them look a bit chubby, could be better without.

Otherwise, it's a good design, looks pretty formal.

Thx for your honest opinions.

Maybe the halo effect is litle overdone (since they ar not past on) but thease are my litle christmas angels and the cards are ment for family and close friends so I think people will find this comical.

Techno; the gradient layer isn´t fully intese over the children. I tryed some variations but liked the white glow at the bottom (more angel refering!?)

Plexxoid; you´ve a point about the snow. But when I was shooting I couldn´t make him stop eating the snow and also he was playing Santa all the time (covering his face with snow and pretendig it was a beard). In most of the pics the face was covered with snow. Actually I just found it a litle funny and I think all the people who are going to get this will realize that this is snow but not toothpase or something else.

Thx again.
