A Card for many Challenges

Good Afternoon Crafters, yes yet another card for the Sugar Bowl and Sugary Sunday Challenges, and this is one of the Adorables a digi image you will find on the Funky Kits website, and this weeks challenge on Sugary Sunday is a colour one.
And I sincerely hope that Ive managed it, its not easy to colour images in such few colours but at least I have tried. I then used one of the new shaped Dies from Nestabilities to cut her out and a larger one for the mount, Ive also used a smaller one for the sentiment which is one from my stash.
The base card is a 6"x 6" white card with a first mount of beige card and on top I have used three papers from Sweet Shoppes "Grace" digi paper set, the first is a beige background with a damask pattern on, and for the second I have used a cream paper and one of the Cheery Lynn Doily dies, I placed in the center of the first mount. The third mount is again a dark beige background with spot pattern on and this was placed down the card towards the left handside.
I then placed my image towards the left and the sentiment below on the right. To finish of I have used some of the left over papers and punched it out with one of flower punches then shaped the leaves and stuck them on top of each other, and punched out the leaves from yet more of the left over paper and placed the flower on top of these on some silicone glue.
This Card is to be entered in the following Challenges:-
