Best Wishes Little Girl

Hello, today I have a card to show you that I have made using an image by Elizabeth Bell from the 'Merry Weather' ready to colour art book from Hobby House. I have coloured the image with Copic markers and a white gel pen. The background papers I have used are from the 'Vintage Bloom' paper pad by Aspire. I have used my new Silhouette Cutting Machine that arrived yesterday to cut mostly the whole card, including the large circle which is one of the free designs that came with the machine along with the tag for the sentiment. The lattice background, flowers and border have also been cut using the machine. I had hoped that buying this machine would make my crafting speed up, but I have found that it now takes me twice as long to create anything because I am having two much fun playing around with all the different designs and effects etc. The lace and pearls are from my local haberdashery and the sentiment is a stamp from my stash. The butterfly's have been cut from the backing paper and I have finished the card with some Stickles glitter glue. The card measures 6 1/2 x 6 1/2 inches. 

I would like to enter this card into the following challenges:
