Welcome
Yes another post - second in two days :)
I know I can put this card up on my blog as the recipients don't read it.
This was a very simple card to make. I took a sheet of white card and coloured it with
Cosmic Shimmer Pink Thistle Opal Polish - it's fascinating as sometimes it looks lavender, and in other lights, quite pink. This shows in some of the photos.
After embossing the panel using the S/B 3D embossing folder Floral Jewel, I heat embossed the sentiment in silver, and 'underlined' it with silver metallic bling
Added more of the bling on certain elements of the design.
And then tied a bow across the base of the card with a transparent ribbon with a wee bit of sparkle in it that picks up the surrounding colour.
When I mounted the coloured panel to the base, I popped some silver mirror card under two opposing corners for added sparkle.
I finished the inside with some beautiful shimmery washi tape
and also added some to the envelope.

WOW, this cosmic opal shimmer polish looks just gorgeous on this embossed panel. Love the different tone according the light on it. Beautiful Anniversary card, I'm sure the recipient loved it. Thanks so much for sharing and for playing at ATSM.
What a fantastic colour this is, I must remember what you used. Very striking! Such a beautiful embossing folder too, and the perfect blank space to add your sentiment. That is gorgeous script, very elegant.
Blessings, Neet xx
