Hi Friends!
This is a great way to use up all that lovingly treasured designer paper!
I shared how to do this card with my Seniors Group yesterday. We even used more of the beaufiful Expressions In Ink designer paper and created a custom envelope!
Here's what you need for this card:
Expressions In Ink DSP 11 x 4 scored at 5-1/2 x 11 (for card base)
Basic White 3 x 4 and 3-1/2 x 5 (inside)
Calypso Coral 1 x 4
White Frayed Ribbon 3" - then I unwound it to make the feathery ribbon you see poking out on the left hand side. Leave about 1/2 an inch at one end that is unfrayed so you can adhere the ribbon to the card
Scalloped Contour Dies
Flowering Rain Boots stamp set
In Colour Jewels
Ink: Memento, Shaded Spruce, Calypso Coral
Wink of Stella (cuz no card is done until the Winky is added ;)
The designer paper is folded on the 5-1/2" score line, then the 11" score line is folded back so you get to see both sides of the paper on the front. I layered a bit of Calypso Coral under the flap to stabilize it and add more interest.
Thanks for visiting to day.
Stampin' Smiles!

Hi Glenda. I love this card! Those tulips are so pretty!
How do you "get a seniors group"? I am interested in working with seniors, but do I just phone a seniors residence and say I want to volunteer?
Marie-Jeanne yes you could do that. I was introduced to this group by one of my friends/customers who belonged to it. I did go to an assisted living facility for a bit before covid with one of my team members, and she started because her daughter worked there. But yes, give them a call!
