Hello crafty friends! It’s Laurie Willison here!
I have a quick and simple card to share today. I absolutely LOVE the new Bitty Botanicals that was released last month. I had to pair it with the Diamond Ribbon Die for a little embossing. The ribbon die makes the most adorable quilted look if you use it like an embossing plate!
First, I inked up the red rubber from the Bitty Botanicals set with green ink and then followed it up with the stencil. I added ink with a heavy hand to give a bold look to all the little flowers. Next up, I put the embossing pad to work in my die cut machine and dry embossed the Diamond Ribbon die right over top of the flowers. They fit perfectly!
To finish off the card, I used the All Kinds of Happy Dies and Shadow dies with a layer of velum and gold cardstock. I added the “Birthday” by stamping with the All Kinds of Happy stamp set and heat embossing a Tear Strip Banners. This card was so simple to make!
I am so glad you stopped by today and I hope you enjoyed today’s project! If you are inspired to create a clean and simple card, please tag me when you share over on Instagram! I love to see all your creations!

STUNNING WORK, Laurie! I thought about the embossing with this die, but haven’t gotten to it YET! I WILL after seeing this! 😉
I love this, Laurie. I can’t wait to give the embossing technique a try!
I love the dry embossed effect for this card; very nice!
Simple but elegant!
