This is for the Something Old, Something New challenge.
Old: edging at the bottom of the card is from vintage writing paper, and the card is sized to fit the matching envelope.
New: gems
Borrowed: library book that gave me the idea for the layout
Blue: card stock

First - love your watermark and the idea. Comfort Station - is that you at your desk or the cards you send out to encourage and cheer - both ideas work so well.
Second - what a genius take on borrowed, so literal!!
Third, what a great old-fashioned vintage looking card, it's just fab! Reminds me of the illustrations in an old magazine article I have on Victorian cards (the article itself is already old, ha, maybe about as old a as me ;-)).
