I like this card but can see what you mean about embellishment...maybe a rhinestone in the center of the flower instead of a brad? Another option might be to stamp the main flower image as the background on the Old Olive (in Versamark, maybe) and use Stickles or Dazzling Diamonds glitter to give the flowers some "pop"...the layout is really cute though and the color combo is one I never would have thought of but like very much. TFS!

Very sweet card. I like the color combination - the colors coordinate well together yet it's not all *matchy matchy* KWIM???!!! Awesome layout too~

VERY cute. Maybe a background stamp on the green area would help a little.

Bold and bright- I like the clean look of it. If you really want to add something, while not really necessary, how about a subtle background on the green panel?

Very pretty! Love your layout! I like it a lot the way it is but if I was to add something I would stamp the flower again and cut the middle part out and put it up on a dimensional. I would also add some glitter on the dots of the petals. Hope you like my ideas. TFS!

Really love these colours and your layout is awesome! I like the idea of the versa mark on the green to add something. But seriously - it's great the way it is!!

I really like the card. Sometimes I think less is more. The only thing that came to mind was to cut out a couple more of the flowers, (perhaps distress the edges) and build a multi-layered flower out of the images (perhaps connecting with dimensionals). I really like 3-D cards.
I think it's great the way it is. One thing I do when I feel something more is needed is to stamp the same flower in Versamark on the green panel-but this idea and layout are really nice. I like the colors. Will be casing this. TFS
