Anniversary In Yellow

Hello again.  It's a lovely day outside and I'll be going for a walk shortly...but first this little card.

I've had a request for a few anniversary cards, and they need to go through the post.  Of course, I didn't have any made up, soooo here's the first one.   This is another image from Just Inklined, and you can find it here, along with a number of other beautiful blooms.  This is actually a peony, however, I've changed the colours a bit, though I do wish peonies did come in this colour. (lol)

I've coloured with Prismas, then cut out and around a Nestie Label 2 die, and you will see I was able to use 4 different sizes.  For some dimension, I've attached 3 of the layers with foam squares, of the smallest thickness available.  The card blank is from Michaels and is already embossed.  I just inked it over with some Scattered Straw DI.  The only embellishments are some gold stickles, a bit of ribbon and a few gems.  Nice and easy, and it will go in the post!

A couple of challenges provided some inspiration:
