Projects at Assisted Living Home in January

My friend, Dottie, and I went to a local Assisted Living Home this past month and made cards with some of the residents there.  These are the projects we made:

The little card was quite simple, a couple of layers of cardstock and DSP with the scalloped heart embosslit to make a little 3 x 3 card.  The second card used the stamp set You Are Loved, which was in the Holiday Mini Catalog. 

Here is the recipe for the bigger card:

STAMPS:  You Are Loved

CARDSTOCK: 
     Close to Cocoa (retired):  5-1/2 x 8-1/2, scored at 4-1/4
     Very Vanilla:  3-3/8 x 4-5/8
     Riding Hood Red:  3-5/8 x 4-7/8
     Candy Lane DSP (retired):  1-1/2 X 3-3/8
     Scraps:  Very Vanilla, Riding Hood Red
     INSIDE: 
          Riding Hood Red:  3-5/8 x 4-7/8
          Very Vanilla:  3-3/8 x 4-5/8

INK:  Riding Hood Red

ACCESSORIES:  Dotted Scalloped Border Punch, Dimensionals

All of the pieces were adhered ahead of time and put on waxed paper, which made it easy for the residents to put their cards together.  It looked like this:

We had a really good time helping the ladies make their cards, which turned out beautifully!

Thanks for stopping by!

Happy stampin and scrappin,
