A Card for the Sugar Bowl and Sugary Sunday Challenges

Good Evening Everyone, again I do apologise for being so slack in posting cards this week but I do find that Im pretty busy and dont get much time to create special cards for this blog, but I will try and make amends as I have this one to show you and perhaps another one over the weekend but we shall see as tomorrow I have promised to show a friend of mine how to use copic pens and if I get a bit of spare time afterwards I will try and finish of the card Ive just started but we shall see.
Anyway this card is for the Sugar Bowl Sketch and colour challenge and luckily its almost the same as the one for Sugary Sunday on Facebook. Ive used this sweet Funky Kits image and coloured her with my copic pens, afterwards I used a square Nestabilitie die to cut her out and used a inkpad around the edge to stress it. Ive used the Marvellous Square die for the mount. The sentiment was one from my stash and I used a smaller die from the same set to mount it on.
The base card is a 6"x 6" white card with a first mount of orange card, and the papers I used for this card are from the Sweethshoppe Digi Downloads and this design set is called "All Spice" the designs on the papers are just gorgeous and go so well with the image.
Ive layered up the card with the mounts called for in the sketch and then positioned my image towards the right and the sentiment on the right. To finish of I used some of the left over papers to create the flowers in the top left hand corner.
This Card is to be entered in the following Challenges:-
