Focus does seem a bit soft on the glass, the noise maker, and the confetti. It's really hard to tell how it is on the bubbles cause of their textures.
The angle and framing/cropping are really good. I like how you have included the noise maker, and the confetti, while dark, do add a bit of interest to the shot.
You got a bright blue pixel to the right of the glass. I'm gonna have to mark you down 4 points for that. lol (just a joke if you follow the forums) Not a big deal.
The lighting on the left of the large part of the glass is a bit harsh. I do however like it on the bubbles. I like the little rainbows in the bubbles.
I would definately like to see sharper focus.

Wonderful shot! The lighting is a bit harsh and direct, but otherwise what a great superb shot. A wonderful idea and composition - 9 despite the lighting.
Nice idea, well lit. I like the colours at the bottom. A shame you couldn't get more rainbow colours refracted in the bubbles. Good use of contrast between the light glass and dark background. 9
Dish soap suds does not a liquid shot make. Neat idea, but this photo doesn't really appeal to me. Not sure why, but maybe its the lighting. Some details seem soft.
Fine work. The (hell what's it called - the thing you blow into?) seems a little cursory to me - how about some ribbons or streamers to give it some company? The confetti doesn't read too well, and the lamp reflection in the glass is perhaps a bit much too - did you try top-lighting it?
Clever idea. The highlights on the bubbles are perfectly done. Your lighting is great. One little distracting blow out stripe on the noise maker, but not a huge issue.
