Today's card is one that I will be sharing with a group of 50 seniors (I'm told they range in age from 60-94!) in my neighborhood! Our neighborhood association sponsors a monthly luncheon for our senior residents. As a special treat for them, a couple of my friends (fellow demonstrators) and I have volunteered to help them make a Christmas card. I am so grateful to my friends for donating their time and supplies to help me with this event. This is the design we decided on for the card. Very simple and cheerful! We have prepped everything, even stamped the sentiment and tied the bow, so all the seniors will have to do is adhere everything. Tried to keep it simple! Hopefully they will enjoy being a little crafty! I cased the basic layout for this card from a card I saw from Amanda Mertz . I used Stampin' Up's retired confetti white card stock. Love that stuff, it's so strong--great for a card base. I am also going to submit this card for a the Hand Stamped Sentiments challenge #144--Snowflakes and the SUO Challenge #58 – A Clean and Simple Holiday Card . Have a fabulous day! Thanks for stopping by!
