Peach Tilda

I started this card last night and had everything all laid out waiting for Tilda to dry. I came back in and was looking at it and thinking it looks pretty much like fall when my dd (who doesn't like Tilda by the way) comes in and wonders why I was making a fall card in May. Oops time to change strategies. Here is the first one that wasn't glued down. 
I'll save the card and corners and add a different image in the fall. Here is what I came up with the second time.

Tilda is colored in copics. There is stickles on the trim and the dots on the dress and on the background. Angel Wings shimmerz is painted on the peaches. The floral background is from K & company that I have had for ages and I don't know where the green corners are from.  The flower is sprayed with Terra Cotta and Pink Walnut ink with some stickles added. 
Copic colors used:
skin E00, E50, E11
Checks R20
Dress R05, YR61, E95, YR00
basket E57, E53, E50
Hair E77, E57, YR31
peaches R83, Y00, E21, E93
leaves G28, G21
background dots B02
shadows B60, BG10, G00, 0
I did this using the sketch from here and am entering it in Magnolia-licious Highlites challenge.
Hope you enjoy.

I diffinitly like the light colored one the best. You did a great job on both of them I just like things light and airy. It is awesome though to be able to see what happens with the same Tilda just changed up on the card part. thanks for the ideas,
Garnet
