Hi there blog friends!! How about an easy card making idea today? I’m still quite in the Christmas mood and looking forward to checking another card off my list for my Christmas stash. Today I decided to create a card that’s white on white. It’s actually hard trying *not* to slip a layer of color in there! I reached for a classic sentiment by Quietfire Design by using the sweetly penned Christmas is the Day set.
I used one my favorite new embossing folders, Spellbinders Roman Romance for the background here. The round treatment at the top is done using Spellbinders Curved Borders Two. Last of all, the sentiment is placed on Spellbinders Fancy Tags Two. Believe it or not, I’m down to two layers in this card….here goes!!
So to recap the layers I used from the bottom up, my card base is 5-1/2″ x 7-1/2″, matting layer cut to 5-3/8″ x 7/38″, foam tape, white layer cut to 5-1/4″ x 6-1/8″ – embossed with Roman Romance and adhered toward bottom edge, die cut layer using two cuts of Curved Borders arranged so that open end of curve are facing, die cut layer using Fancy Tags Two. Attach ribbons, bow, pearls and sentiment on appropriate layer.

You have my thanks always for you thoughtful observations! So happy you stopped by for a moment today!!
Hello Becca !
Just logged on and found your latest design…it looks just like a Wedding gown..its so beautiful.
I don’t think, until you see this folder being used, do you realise how beautiful it is!
You always make me want to create!
Thank you for all your inspiration Becca!
Oh my goodness Becca, this card is sooooooo gorgeous. I absolutely love love love this one today and feel I´m in heaven, when I look at it. It would be sooo perfect for a weddingcard too with another sentiment and could even work for a Symphaty card as well. I actually don´t think there´s anything it couldn´t work for, if you just replaced the senrtiment with a proper one. I´m really overwhelmed with the beauty in this one.
Thanks so much for all your awesome inspiration always , I really love your work hun.
I love the simplicity of this one and the white on white….LOVE IT>
VERY PRETTY
Becca, your cards are just so elegant. Thanks for sharing your beautiful work.
OMG!!!! This card is amazing!!!!!
Stunning! I love it!
So pretty!
Love it!! It’s exquisite! I am always anxious to see what you have created and you never disappoint. The embossing folder seems like another must have! Thanks, Becca.
Elegant simplicity–so lovely!
Will 3-D Spellbinger embossibilities work with a Cuttlebug?
The card is absolutely beautiful! This would also be an excellent wedding card.
So very pretty
So, so beautiful as everything you do. Thank you for being so generous and sharing with all of us. We love you Becca and your talents. Donna
Angelic is the word that springs to mind – love it!
And just to think some lucky friend of yours will get this for Christmas! Words escape me; it’s ethereal. I’ve just added a couple of items to my Spellbinders wish list. You show us so many inventive and beautiful ways to use dies and embossing folders and I thank you so much. Have a great day!
Absolutely Beautiful!!!!
This is scrumptious Becca. Wish I could find my DVD for the bowmaker!
It looks very angelic – perfect for Christmas. As usual….gorgeous!
Oh this is so beautiful – absolutely exquisite. And I think it is equally at home at a Wedding or Christening….
You are super-talented, Becca. Thank you for sharing.
Hugs, Rose
Ok…you are just AMAZING! I love seeing your creations! Do you travel and teach at shows?
Elegant in it’s simplicity! The Roman Romance folder makes the card look as if it took hours to make! Another triumph for our “Becca”!
Hi Becca,
Absolutely gorgeous. Big draw back living across the pond, we haven’t seen some of these items. Would soooooooooooooo love them.
Much love,

Beautiful! Becca, would you make a video showing how to use the Curved Border dies to achieve the results in this card? I’d greatly appreciate it and there may be others out there too would appreciate it too. Thank you so much.
Beautiful!! Love how you used the border die, very creative and lovely embossing!
I love the white on white. The card is beautiful Becca!
Truly heavenly angel look to it!! Your creations are amazing. Thank you for showing other great uses from that folder.
STUNNING!
Becca I love white on white and this one is just spectacular , thank you and love that embossing folder you have used, along with the dies. just wonderful.
Hugs Trish.
Being a lover of using dies the way you assemble yours is quite remarkable. You make look simple what takes me hours to come up with. I guess some of it is in just using the dies more so as to be familiar with them. Though from the time it takes me I would say there’s some savvy involved that I am missing! Yours are amazing and they do blow me away! So fun! I agree that this embossing folder makes for a gorgeous wedding card and also a very appropriate Sympathy card. I can see me putting these together soon! Thank you for sharing your talent.
Hi Becca, stunning card. The white on white looks so elegant and the bow just falls so beautifully between the framing of the background.
hello becca, so happy that I have found

This is so elegant!
Wow Becca like a beautiful icing on a cake!!
What a beautiful card! Never thought this embossing folder could be used like this. You are sooooo amazing! Just placed an order to purchase quite a few embossing folders and somehow skipped this one, now I am considering adding another order, ^_^…
Sooo LOVE white in honor of Christmas….very appropriate!
I still don’t know how to use Embossing Powder…but, have to look for
instructions.
THANK YOU FOR DESIGNING THIS GORGEOUS CARD.
Blessing,
Joyce
an absolutely gorgeous card Becca, you always inspire me! I’m having a hard time trying to figure out what you did with the curved borders. Would it be possible to get a tutorial for that?
Anne (in UK)

So very elegant and beautiful! Edna
wow..I just love white on white, so elegant! Awesome job on the spellbinders.. as usual :)

Spellbinders Dies. Looks like the wings of an angel.

Delicately elegant, beautiful! I have the border dies, and the sentiment, now I need to investigate the pretty embossing folder.
Love this card and would be great for any occasion. Xx
So elegant and gorgeous!!!!! White on white is always a favorite of mine. I love how you have used the curved boarders top and bottom. Hadn’t thought of that, but really makes a beautiful layering piece for the tag and sentiment. You are so clever Becca.

White paper has never looked this good before! So beautiful.
Did I really need to buy another die and embossing folder? Yes, and yes. Becca, your work is so spectacular. You take what I would probably reject and turn it into a smashing success. Love the white on white and different textures. Your designs always have balance but with a touch of the unexpected. Thanks for doing the thinking for me and providing clear, complete instructions. One of your many fans. Every accolade you receive is well deserved.

Magical!
That’s the prettiest card I’ve seen in quite some time!! Love it!
This card is so lovely. Would like a video on how to make top. Thank you so much for sharing.
Good morning Becca,
What a beautiful card you have made with the embossing folder. Who else sees an angel just missing her head? Perhaps its just my imagination running riot again, sorry. It takes these fanciful moments especially upon first sight. Anyway this is one 3D folder that i cannot wait until it has come to the UK.
Stunning is the only word for your work of art today, thank you Becca,
Love and crafty hugs
Norah

Wow!!!! You are really knocking these cards out of the park!!
