A Card for the Official Magnolia Challenge - "Sketch" and Yellow

I will be having a breakdown if Im not careful two Tilda Cards in one day, oh well I just had to have a play with this little cutie, Ive coloured her with my copics and then used the new Die-namics Rectangle Dies, then inked around the edges, Ive also used a larger die for the mount. The sentiment is another from my stash and has been mounted on a bit of the same yellow card.
The base card is a 6"x 6" white card with a first mount of yellow card, the papers I have used are from the First Edition "Family Ties" paper pad, the first a embossed yellow background with white flowers on, the second and third papers are a yellow check and a multi stripped one, the other yellow strip is the check on turned over and stuck across the middle as the sketch asked.
The mounted image was then positioned in the middle with the sentiment down the side. To finish of I have created a flower spray of five different sized roses in white and yellow, these were stuck in the top left hand corner on top of punched out rose leaves. The last little flourish are the two sequined hearts and the pearls down the bottom on the right hand side.
This Card is to be entered in the following Challenges:-
