From the many lovely things she creates, Virginia has chosen to give her directions for making note paper. This is timely, as Christmas cards or notes can be fashioned by this method. PARCHMENT STATIONERY You will need parchment type paper in pastel tones, "Summer Snowflake" pattern or that with a bark effect. It should measure 5 7 and 7/8 g envelopes. Also required will be a piece of plywood larger than the stationery. Draw on this board a rectangle measuring.5 and 15/16 inches by 7 and 15/16 inches. You will also need a supply of dried materials such as leaves with interesting shapes and colors (lace leaf maple, Japanese maple, and blueberry leaves are especially good), Hydrangea florets, pampas grass, maple seed, blossoms and petals, bits of evergreen, and portions of roadside and woodland weeds. These materials can be readied for use in several days by pressing between sheets of wax paper in a large book or under a weight. You will need CLEAR wax paper (the opaque variety will not do); Scotties tissues (no other brand will give the desired effect); Elmer's glue; a metal edged ruler; and a pastry brush. Place on the board a sheet of wax paper. Mix 2 parts of Elmer's Glue with 1 part of water, and with pastry brush spread a light coat of this mixture over the wax paper. Make  design by placing in the glue an arrangement of dried materials, bearing in mind that the sheet will be folded and centering design on the front portion using lines on board as a guide. A small related design may appear on the back if desired. Place a single ply sheet of Scotties tissue over dried materials. With brush dab tissue onto wax paper so that all bubbles are eliminated. Set aside to dry over night. When thoroughly dry, iron sheets on the wax paper side with a warm iron, making sure that the iron is not too warm. Place sheets on board, and using the guide lines drawn there, tear to size with a metal edged ruler. The tearing in this manner gives a parchment effect that cannot be obtained by cutting with scissors. Fold to card hape, and fold sheet of stationery to fit inside.
