Robin Hood no Edwin Hood

Good evening All, I hope you all well, I bought some Magnolia stamps from Squirrel last week, and she was kind enough to add Robin Hood Edwin for me as he has always been my favourite Edwin image, but never got him when he came out. so of course he was the first one out of the package to get an inking. I have coloured him with promarkers and fleximarkers, mounted on to an oval die cut, backing paper from Dovecraft Riverbank pack, Joy craft die cut leaves, Sizzix die cut leaf border, the red flowers I have had in my stash for about 3 years so I finally got to use some of them ribbon charm and pearls all from stash.
I would like to enter my card into the following challenges.

Doesn't the red and green look so very striking Kevin and that spray of flowers is lovely.
