Today is all about adding some pizzazz to your pens. Back in 2015, I made a video showing how to add Designer Series Paper to the inside of a RSVP Pentel Pen and make it a thing of beauty. You can watch the video (see link below) and you’ll see how easy it is to do! I used Delightful Floral Designer Series Paper (an Online Exclusive) to make an updated version of the pens but you can use anything you have in your paper stash!
You’ll need a piece of Designer Series Paper that measures 3-1/2″ x 1″ and you can access the very old video here (which I had to watch to remember how to do this)! I’d love to know if you decide to give this idea a try!
Please note: I recently had a friend try to make these DSP filled pens and she was having a hard time wrapping the paper around a pencil as I note in the video. This step helps to break down the fibers in the paper. Instead she used a bamboo knitting needle that was smaller in diameter than a pencil and it worked for her. If you’re having trouble, try using a knitting needle!
Winter Meadow Card Sampler
To create this Sampler, I used Winter Meadow Designer Series Paper and the Magical Meadow stamp set.
Please note: I used our Silver & White Sheer Ribbon for one of the cards. This product is currently out of stock but is expected to be back in stock next week. If I’m unable to purchase this ribbon or it’s delayed, I will substitute with another white ribbon.
