Tilda with roses

I hadn't had a chance to use this Tilda but thought it high time I did. Not only because I bought it but because there is a challenge to use a Tilda you hadn't used yet.
This Tilda is really from the Christmas collection but can really be used most anytime. The only thing that makes it look a little Christmasy is the holly leaves in the roses. There is pleated organza ribbon behind the image. You can see the directions on how to do this here.http://stampinmindy.blogspot.com/2010/06/fussy-and-fancy-and-guest-designer-for.html The yellow dp is from the oh baby from basic grey. The pink is from bo bunny. The image and the flowers are colored with copics. The little swirl is cut with a sizzix die.  Then it opens as an easel card.
Happy Birthday is from swirly sayings by the angel company. 
Copics used:
skin - E00, E21, E50
Cheeks - R20
Roses - RV02, RV23, RV21
Leaves  - G28, G21
Dress - Y00, Y02,Y06, Y17, E21
Hair - E53,YR31, YR20
Background - G00, BG10, B00, R00, V000, 0

This card was made for a couple of challenges:
Magnolia Birthday Bash to use a Magnolia stamp you hadn't used before and make it an easel.
Just Magnolia to make a lace border
I also made it yellow for someone's blog challenge but can't remember where. If I do I'll correct this  and say whose it is.
Hope you enjoy this.
