Embellish your edges.

Bring out the edges of your pattern paper by embellishing them with chalk, rub on paint, or ink stitching them.

When you add these techniques to your handmade cards, you show that you pay attention to detail. You'll put demension into your piece and it generally looks nicer. My preferred method is chalks, or chalk and ink, but a simple ink line art on the edge, (-.-.-.), does wonders to the card.
