A Card for Mo's Challenges - "Monochrome"

It got away from me, sorry about that anyway todays card has been created for Mo's Challenge "Monochrome" and if I find other Challenges that it can go in I will add them at the bottom of the post. Ive used this sweet little girl with a bouquet and then printed her onto white card before colouring her with my Copic and Tria pens then cut it out with my Nestabilitie Die No.1 and then drew around it to create the mount, the sentiment is one from my stash.
The base card is a 6"x 6" white card with a first mount of pink pearlescent card with one of two papers from the Forever Friends paper pad, the first paper is a pretty pink paper with flowers down it, on top is a stripe one in pink and white and Ive used a lace border punch down both edges though it doesnt show to well on my photo. On top is a strip of the same pink pearlescent card thats been put through my cuttlebug in a embossing folder then stuck on top.
The mounted image has been mounted towards the top and my sentiment at the bottom on the right. To finish of I have positioned two net butterflies in opposite corners.
This card is to be entered in the following Challenges:-
