I think ribbon or fibers would make this a perfect card! How about eyelets in the two upper corners of the grapes with the fibers threaded through and tied?

I agree with TFS.Or Maybe tie a peice of Hunter organdy around grapes by the leaves and 2 pewter brads in the sentiment one next to the other under the ing in Thanksgiving. It is a great card though and whatever you decide to do I'm sure it will look nice.

This is such a wonderful card but I agree it needs something. I love fibers and ribbon, they might be just the right finishing touch perhaps with some of the tiny crystal beads on the ends.

Very striking card - I have the DD Grapes set and I will defintely be CASEing this one. I always have to step away from a card and add fibers or other embellishments later. I think this looks fine the way it is.

Thanks for all the great tips and ideas; will definitely "finish" this and re-post...I made a set of eight but didn't sell or send any...not sure if I'll do them all at once. :{
