Lilac & Lemon

Over on MSE the lovely Melissa challenged us to make a card using lilac and/or purple and this is my entry.
I started with the pretty lemon & lilac paper that I received in a swap and then tried to match it up, you wouldn't believe how many shades of lilac I found that didn't match! but eventually I settled on the reverse of some whitewashed core'dinations. The stamped image is a LOTV one and I coloured it using my Copic pens.  The sentiment is from craftwork cards. As the format is A5 and the backing paper quite busy I decided to leave well alone.........

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

I hope I've done this right - Thank you for looking
