No those cards are from the flickr group.
Have you tried out Picasa software? It's free and very easy to use. You can adjust the lighting of the image by dragging the line. Very easy. ...

Hm... I have installed it but never make use of it.  I should try it sometime.  I did use the Microsoft office pictures at work to change the lighting but sometime kind of strange (if you go to my blog, you can see those Christmas card pictures, some of them are very red....)  I gotta play around,  but taking pictures in natural light (during the day) is definitely the least complicated.

Maybe there's too many bright reds going on in your card.  I think for me, instead of using the red glitter dots beside the heart stamp.  I think I'll use a clear diamond colour glitter.  I like one part that you've tried to match the center border piece with the left side triangles.  It's kind of like how those brand bags companies matches the patterns for the corner or the sides of their leather/fabric bags.

Did you make those cards Fibbi?  Nice!  The second one looks like Japanese ones, simple but not plain.  Do you know how to make that wrinkle edge?  I so want a sewing machine to sew my cards!
BTW, Yes lighting when taking cards is very important I find.  I still cannot take nice pictures like this.  I even thought about buying a light box just to take card pictures.  (another $99)

Btw, I think the design (layout) is great! Different element coordinates well.
I guess I like both busy pattern (such as this one: ) and simple pattern (like this one: ).
It just that if there is grayish blue, if I were to use a "striking" colour, the red or pink I would use is darker tone red or pink.

Now that I think...maybe the camera and lighting also makes a difference... sometimes the photo doesn't really represent the true colour in real....
