STUNNING!!
I could hardly wait to get my preorder for the Occasions Mini in the mail (you can start ordering April 1), so that I could play with the Manhattan Flower Textured Impressions Die!! I knew exactly what I wanted to do, so it only took me about 10 minutes to put this beauty together.
First, I embossed a piece of vellum (cardstock weight) 3 3/4 X 5 with the folder and my Big Shot. I embossed the sentiment (Thoughts and Prayers) on it with white ink and powder. I used white brads to hold it to the regal rose CS sized 4 X 5 1/4. Finally, I tied the white organza ribbon on it before attaching it to the white card base.
So simple, but it says all you need, and with the raised flowers, it just makes you want to touch it. Have fun and happy stamping!!
Wow...this is fabulous! Stunningly simple...my favorite kind of card. Thanks for sharing your creativity with us!

Ok... so none of the texturz plates did anything for me, I was happy with my CB selection. BUT.... thanks to you and this dynamite card, I believe Manhattan flower is on its way to my next order!
Thanks??? (not sure...)

That is a beautiful card. I wonder what it would looh like with a little colour? Perhaps water colour crayons. I would like to get the Big Shot, I am quite sure I would really enjoy the texture plates.
