A Card for the Sugar Bowl Challenge - "A Sketch"

Good Afternoon Everyone, sorry Ive not posted anything here since last week, but if youd visited my No.1 blog you would know that my Mother in Law passed away on Monday and I didnt think it was quite appropriate to post anything. Anyway today Ive just finished my card for this weeks Sugary Sunday on Facebook and Ive combined it with this weeks Sketch and Kraft Challenge for the Sugar Bowl. I have used this sweet image of a little girl opening her box with a soft bunny in, and coloured in in shades of blue for the Facebook challenge, and then cut it out with one of my circle Nestabilitie Dies. The sentiment is one from my stash.
The base card is a 6"x 6" white card with a first mount of Kraft Card, then used two papers from the Maja "Life in the Country" paper set, and mounted them on some blue card and arranged as the sketch required.
I then mounted my image in the centre with the sentiment at the bottom on the right, to finish of Ive cut two leaf swirls with my Memory Box die, and stuck two lilies on top of them.
This card is to be entered in the following Challenges:-
