Slight perspective error with the placement and size of the mannequin. It's too small for how far it is, unless this particular mannequin for some reason is smaller than most mannequins Rarity has in possession.
I'm wondering if there ought to be a tag for pretty amazing perspectives like these. The composition of this, though it might not be the best frame for this scene, is just awesome. The diagonals, the curved horizon line, really conveys the chaos of this scene.
Be aware that scootaloo's head is vertically squashed likely due to stretch-and-squash, and animator technique to add more life whenever something hits something else. In this case, Scootaloo slamming onto the ground.
Actually, stretch-and-squash has more uses than just making hits and impacts more lifelike, but I'm certain that it can be used to exaggerate things in general. Nvm about that remark.
Highlighting is likely wrong on the armchair. Highlights are stronger and smaller on smoother surfaces. Unless that armchair is made of leather or something then the highlights are suggesting that it's made of a material that isn't a fabric of sorts. The animators most likely added the highlights to give more precise form on the armchair, albiet at a cost of making it be made of an unintuitive material for its color.
Either way, be sure to use references to make sure your highlighting is correct for the given substance material.
lol the somewhat obvious redundancy with the red-violet mushrooms once you look at it. Usually, the animators are careful to avoid excessive copy-pasting so that the same element appears at least twice. Doing so can create a feeling of fakeness when it starts being noticed.

Hmm, one foreleg is longer than the other.

Top-right: a tree trunk appears cut off.
Bottom-left: a couple of elements are cut off from the bottom.

hmm... clouds overlap in a way that doesn't entirely make intuitive sense.

lol unintentionally implied waterfall due to how close that horizon line is.

A fair amount of stretch and squash is applied to this tent. Refer to post #362 for a tent with the same design.
