I think the vase and cut flowers directly on top of the background is a little busy. Have you tried matting it on a plain piece of cardstock?

I think it's gorgeous! If it were me, I probably wouldn't have known enough to quit and would have probably inked the edges of the card with the darker brown color. (I couldn't quite tell from the picture if they were inked a little already, but I tend to overdo it. LOL)

I am simple to the extreme so bare that in mind!

I LOVE the background you did on this card...I think it's great and has lots of detail. Because of that, I think instead of a cutout flower in blue (and crystal laquer?) ... I would go with it just stamped, sponge if necessary to fill up the white space, colored lightly to match the background color and blue...and then mat that image with a small layer of the blue. That way you can include the phrase right there with the flower vase.
