The other day I got a comment from someone who said they didn’t think I could make a card without ribbon. Ha . . Ha . . yes I can!!! . . . well . . . there really is no ribbon, right? When that comment came in, I knew exactly what card I’d be making. This is set of stamps from Northwood Rubber Stamps for which I can think of no other words except simple and classic. It can be stamped and embossed or colored, layered or not layered, it’s as simple as that.
I embossed three of the ribbon stamps and three of the bow stamps with Gold Detail Embossing Powder on Prism Simply Smooth Cardstock. To assemble I simply layered the bow for some dimension. For the sentiment, also from Northwoods Rubber Stamps, I cut/embossed Spellbinders Labels Nine then traced around the inside with a gold pen.

The ribbon and bow look so real at first glance that I thought “what is she talking about?” Neat card! tfs your story.
LOL. I love it! Becca, you could make a fabulous card out of just about anything!
I love your work! Thanks for the inspiration!
Becca~
You gave me my first smile this afternoon. Love the card and the idea.
Hey Becca
I love your sense of humor..
hahaaaaaaaaaaaaahaaaaaa
That’s gorgeous. Of course, from you I expect gorgeous. Now I have another thing on my wish list :)
I agree with Mousemom, Becca. You COULD make a fabulous card out of most anything!!!!
Wow, this is just gorgeous, I love how simple and understated elegant it is.
Beautiful card. And at first glance it does look like ribbon. Thanks so much for the tip about using the gold pen inside the Nestie. That ads so much depth to the sentiment piece.
Just gorgeous and I just sent you a question about ordering the stamps.
Ribbon or No Ribbon, you can’t beat a card made by Becca! This is a BEAUTY!
Fabulous card Becca, well done for taking on the challenge! How about a card with no die cuts?? I love my nesties and I seem to rely on them more and more :)

This is a lovely card. I’m really liking the Northwood stamps that I see you using. Just a little sneaky on the ribbon thing though.
cheater, cheater, it’s still ribbon even if it’s faux ribbon!
wow! its beautiful
Becca!
You are SO talented…who cares if you don’t use ribbon!!?? But I admire you for taking the challenge. I just would have ignored it. Everything you do is wonderful …who cares if we don’t use ribbon or nesties??!! I want my cards to look professional and I know you do too!! Thanks for all your inspiration!!
LOL! I was thinking the same thing! You can do it & do it beautifully!!
You sure fooled me Becca. It’s a beautiful and I actually thought that there was ribbon it. Whatever you do it is certainly worth a second look. TFS!!!
Hi Becca
Congrats you did it and your card is so gorgeous.
Beautiful Becca!!
Love it! I’m not sure you proved your point, though! LOL!
LOL, ok, technically I supposed that you are right, it’s not a ribbon ribbon. But visually it IS a ribbon! It’s also a very pretty card. Gotta give you points on this one.
