Hi there friends! I’m sure you can tell, but lately I’ve been inspired by texture and embossing. Today I’m sharing a shaped card (shaped using one of my favorite border dies) embellished using an embossing folder. If you don’t recognize it, I embossed the embossing folder twice and assembled them so that the design was mirrored. This time around I wanted a symmetical design and it’s easy enough to do. I found a wonderful Quietfire Design sentiment called To Create Is To Touch that spans the bottom of the card beautifully :-)
I’m using Spellbinders Roman Romance 3D M-Bossabilities for the texture along with Spellbinders A2 Curved Borders Two. I cut it twice and seamed it in the middle where it would be covered by ribbon. I applied the borders separately adhering them with Ranger Crystal Accents. I made my top border hinged just like I do with other dies when making a filigree card base. My front has two layers . . . I put a layer behind the embossing/bordered layer so that my card would be nice and neat on the inside and the ribbon raw edges would be hidden – this is the layer I stamped my sentiment on.

SO ELEGANT. Now I know what my next Spellbinders purchase will be.
Stunning is the only word I can find to describe this card. I’m in awe and bewilderment at the entire design, how clever to use this Embossing Folder that way!! I wonder if you could please tell us how did you make that amazing bow, it’s this card’s crowning glory.
This card is absolutely elegant!! Can’t believe my eyes. Love all the white. Thank you!!!
Breathtaking card, Becca. Love the white-on-white simplicity that allows the design and texture of the card to take center stage!
love the white clasic style of this card ,Fab .Laura O
Please show us how you made the triple bow. Please?
One Gorgeous Card! Absolutely pristine1 This is one for a TUTORIAL as there are so many “hidden” elements to putting it together. Those hidden elements that may be a problem to figure out at first glance. You know what they say, “Those that are really good at something make it look easy!” Not wanting to reinvent the wheel a good lesson would so be appreciated!
The feeling I get from this card is heavenly and pure. Love it.
Beautiful !!
Breathtaking card. I don’t usually do monochromatic,but this changes everything. How did you hinge the border? Thank you for sharing your creative spirit.
Gorgeous card Becca. Ill bet a lot of the embossing folders look beautiful once they are embossed not necessarily on first glance. You are proving that to be true with this card.
Wow! Stunning!
I absolutely LOVE your card Becca! All the layers, the embossing, the ribbon, all exquisitely applied … a masterpiece in my mind.
Absolutely Spectacular!
Hi Becca, This card is truly stunning !! and the sentiment is heartfelt.
Lots of love from Patricia xx
So elegant. Love the white on white. Beautiful for a wedding card or anything occasion. Edna
Absolutely stunning ! Love the white on white, a great design. Love Helen
Good afternoon Becca,
What a beautiful card you have made again today and in my favourite colour of card. It is so beautiful and the Roman embossing folder is set off to its greatest advantage. Stunning.
Love and crafty hugs

I know I always blog that this is the almighty of all cards but this is!! I am truly a white on white type person but I must say I have been wanting this embossing folder and this has made it a definite purchase. I would so love it if you could do a tutorial on this card Becca! Sometimes some of the things that are so easy for you (you are amazing!) isn’t quite so for us. I think a lot of us would love you to show us (when you have time of course.)
Bless you and your crafty hands,
Hugs

Wow. That is so elegant. Absolutely beautiful! So rich in texture. And the pure white just show it all off perfectly. Gorgeous!!
Spectacular card. The previous time you used this embossing folder I immediately ran out and bought it, duplicated your card and used it on a variety of occasions to great success. This time around I don’t know if I will be able to follow your lead. There may be some glitches with the assembly. Sure would like a tutorial on this one because it is a winner. Love what you do–always just enough, unique, and classy.
wow & wow :).. This white on white is just so elegant.
I’m always amazed at the cards that you come up with but this one simply took my breath away. When I opened your blog and saw the card I just smiled. I too would like you to do a tutorial on this card. I’m going to try it myself anyway.
Keep on delighting us with your work.
OH MY BECCA!!!!! LOOOOOVE your curvy die, the embossing AND THAT BOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! STUNNING!!!!!;)
Becca you amaze me with every card you make. This one is stunning and if I could find another word that is stronger than this I would use it!!! I look forward to your cards and thank you for sharing your inspiration and your love. God Bless you !
Hi Becca, this is a stunner (well, your cards always are!) Love these curved borders, and recently acquired the set you used here. Just happen to have the Mboss too, so you can bet I’ll try this technique you have done here. The designs are lovely, but the way you’ve combined them into this pristine white card, just speaks elegance to me. TFS & providing such fabulous design inspiration. Hope all is well in your world. Hugs & Blessings
Another beautiful master piece! I always look at your work closely so I can try to reconstruct the steps to making the card in my mind. Would you please be so kind as to show us (your loyal fans!) how we can make the top of the card using such a delicate curvy boarder that is hinged? While I’m still on my knees pleading, can you show us how to make that BEAUTIFUL bow. I have your bow maker.
Please be kind to your friend who is lying in bed with a fever and the flu.
Becca……what can I say??!! This puts the fab in fabulous, the beauty in beautiful and the elegant in elegance!
And that bow – swoon!
You are one amazing creator and this card certainly touched my spirit!
Hugs

Hi Becca
This card is simply stunning. Must try this technique again but using the borders. I tried using the filigree die you used in your video, but not quite sure it was quite right. mind you all your cards are absolutely gorgeous. Thank you for sharing. Just love the borders. I have some but must look at these.
It is so elegant. I love your cards.
Wow! This card is so beautiful. You are such an artist! A Beautiful, Creative Mind!
This is absolutely beautiful. I love the way you use dies and embossing folders. So elegant! I agree with the others….I’d love to see a tutorial of this. The crafting of this card intrigues me!

I can only say “Thank you” you have been given a wonderful gift & it begs the question “what is mine….. ?” Hugs Dee x
please show a you tube video on how to make this bow with the 3 bows in it.
Love this card
Also I tried making a card similiar to this one adding on the paper flowers and the make the card very heavy…is there a trick to making these flowers? Show a video on how to make these small flowers please. Cause mine aren’t working??!!!
This is absolutely stunning and is on my list of favorites…maybe even my MOST favorite. The white-on-white is so elegant and rich.
A truly BEAUTIFUL card, Becca. I love that you include links to the items you have used, it’s so easy to go and find them. The way in which you come up with ideas to use Spellbinders is amazing, and I am so glad you share your cards with us. You stimulate the creative inquisitive side of me. I just wish I had the budget to buy all products used. Maybe some day. Thank you, Becca.
I always enjoy admiring your beautiful cards. This one in particular really touches me; the design around the perfect bow and the background remind me of glowing rays from the heavens. thanks so much for sharing.
Lady, some days you amaze me with the elegant simplicity of your cards and other days I am humbled by your attention to each detail. Everyday you inspire – in so many ways. Now, I just need more time to play.
absolutely beautiful. I tried making it but it didn’t turn out very well. Will definitely try again when I have more time. I just love it Becca!
Lorraine
HI Becca
I am always amazed at your thought processes while you create. I love the idea of this technique. Is there any chance you could do a short video? I have not tried your hinged cards yet although I do so many different cuts and shapes this would be a wonderful added technique.
Thanks for your time and sharing. You are a joy!
Such a fabulous card, Becca! And, I love the sentiment!
Another beautiful masterpiece today Becca, you never fail to amaxe me with your creations. This one is so serene being all white and I love the dies you have used. Thank you for sharing it with us.
LOL Eileen U.K.
This is so beautiful Becca, I can’t work out where the hinge is on the top and how you did that ..feeling totally intrigued. I would love a short video on the hinge for this curved top. You are just so talented and this card is incredibly sophisticated.
Becca, I love your three in one bows. I have your bow maker, but that technique was not on your video. Could you do a Becca Bit>
Beautiful Becca! Very elegant and I love the sentiment!
I love this elegant card!! The bow is simply amazing!
Wow, simply stunning!
