Default Need help on a card

Can you help me with this card? I think it needs something more, but I don't know what. I don't have a ton of accessories and no markers (really wish I had the markers).

Any ideas?

Cute card by the way. The thing that immediately came to my mind was some sort of red embellishment for the cherry on top of the cupcake. Glitter maybe?

Do you have red eyelets? Or a red brad? Or you could emboss a gold brad red with versamark and red embossing powder. Do you have red ribbon or hemp instead of the natural for the pull? Super cute idea for a waterfall card! :-)

Lovely card - do you have any diamantes etc that you could put on top of the cupcakes to make it look like sprinkles etc?

You could always use CE if you don't have any kind of colored embellishment!

I don't have red brads or eyelets or EP. I might have red ribbon.

I played around with my ziggy pen and came up with this:
Need help on a card-choc1.jpg
Need help on a card-choc3.jpg

So I'm going to use gold brads and possibly stamp the background chips in gold. Thanks for the ideas!

Here's the final one

It's for a swap, so I hope it's okay.
