Here is a quick and simple card I made today.
The card is 5 1/2"x4 1/4" and made of dark blue card stock. The aqua mat is 5 1/4"x4" and I used one of the Cuttlebug folders from James' Set to emboss the stripes.
For the rest of the card I used dies and stamps from Jaded Blossom.
The strip of aqua card stock is cut using one of the dies from the Card Mat Dies set. I used the largest one and cut a piece of card stock, then lined it up to cut it again, creating the strip. I used their new set of dies, Bow Dies to create the bow. I then added an aqua gem to the middle of the bow. The sentiment is stamped on label, which is from the Mini Tag Dies 2 set. The sentiment itself is from So Many Birthdays stamp set. It is stamped in night sky ink by Tsukineko.
I made this for the following challenges:

What a nice (and very useful, I imagine) embossing folder. I've not seen it before. Love that neat bow too!
