I'm doing this card for a Spring Mini swap but both my hubby and I feel it's missing something. Do you have any suggestions before I make 30 of them? I don't have any yet, but what do you think about 2 little pink brads in the upper left corner? Anything else?

Thanks for your help!!

How about a couple of word window punch tags in between the flowers with some flower brads? Or put some or something pink in the middle of each flower. It's a very beautiful card.

maybe do a similar layout..only change the orientation from portrait to landscape...there is a lot of space at the top...
but what you have looks pretty nice

I know colors fade when uploaded. In the white band it appears very bland. Maybe you could use the liquid glue and add a bit of glitter in the flowers for a bit of sparkle.

I like it a lot - maybe you can add some color to the doodles in the white layer just touch the flowers with some pink - and maybe add a little white to the top of the card maybe in the flower centers ... please show us what you finally decide - I really like the colors and the lay out.

I agree with Donna. It looks great, but there is a lot of space at the top. Changing to a landscape orientation would help alleviate that. And I am of the opinion that glitter only makes things better! :-) Great swap by the way, I would love to receive one - even as is!
