Late again, this is my first card made this year

Good afternoon everyone, I have suddenly developed an awful cold and sneezes, if you would care to take it away from me I would be so grateful!
I made this card and another one yesterday so it is truly the first of the year :o)
I am uploading this afternoon because I will be out early in the morning at the doctor's then the hairdresser's.


Base card is PMS mauve hammered card that I have had forever....... folded and cut to 7x5.
Image is a digi from Delicious Doodles which I have also had for a long time! Coloured with copics (I am really getting back into using my poor neglected copic again), cut with Grand Nestie then lightly chalked and a smidgin of Glamour Dust added to the petal edges.
Mat, also cut with G. Nestie, is Papermania textured card.
Sentiment is from an old Stamps and Smiles stamp set. 
That's all there is to it.
Nothing new was used in the making of this card :o)
