Here is my card for the challenge:

I started with a card base of SU Soft Sky and layered with shimmery patterned papers from the American Crafts I Do collection.  My elegant image is Lotus is a Bride from Guylou's Inimitability.  She is one of the beautiful new girly-girl images in Guylou's store here.  I printed her on Copic X-Press It Blending Card and colored her with my Copics.  I added Star Dust Stickles to her tiara and the bodice of her gown.  I also added Liquid Pearls to the flowers, her jewelry and her tiara.

Here is a close-up of Lotus:

The sentiment is from Create With TLC.  I added two pearly swirls, a tulle bow and a Vintage Sparkler from Webster's Pages to finish my card.

I almost forgot to mention I used the sketch from the Addicted To Stamps Challenge #33 for my card.
