I'm afraid I don't know what the papers are as I bought the pad from QVC some time ago when they used to do regular craft programmes.
I cut the A4 card in half lengthways as I wanted to make two postcard shaped cards. I cut about an inch (sorry I mainly work in old money!) off the fronts and then covered them with pieces of paper and added inch strips on the inside so that they would show.
I attached organza ribbons to the fronts plus the bows.
The sentiment panels are snippets of white card which I stamped with the scrolly stamp and die cut with the matching Sizzix die. I coloured the edges with some Distress ink then added a few pearl gems to each card.
I would like to take these over to Miss Di's Playground at Pixie's Crafty Workshop. It's a fun place to play each week where all the girls show the cards they've made using all sorts of scraps of card, paper and ribbon.

Great you were able to use up some old stash. I seem to be on a bit of a quest to do the same! lol
These look wonderful.The sentiment stamp is a so lovely.
A great way of using snippets of patterned paper, Barb. The lovely sentiment stamp makes a great focal point. xx
Lovely cards Barb! I still have a load of QVC goodies here :-) Clever design with the shortened front and that really is a lovely sentiment and matching die you've used!
