From the Garden...and a RAK!

I just got this new set from SU! I colored the image in with my Prisma colored pencils and Gamsol. I added rhinestones to the center and glitter to the petals. I cut the petals out a bit with an Xacto knife. I wanted them to pop up a bit. I mounted the image and added some vintage lace around it. I can't decide if I am crazy about how this turned out.......What do ya think?
Isn't this card adorable? I bought a few Magnolia stamps from Sophia Landry and she sent this in the package. She is a master at coloring images and a sweetheart! They all have such depth! Thanks so much Sophia!
