My paper comes from a vintage themed pad called - ????? No idea 'cos I lost the front cover but it is full of scripts/roses/newspaper print/old franking machines and ink and pencils!
I used one of the lighter coloured and less fussy sheets for this make.
The newspaper print, pencils and word 'Perfect' is actually part of the sheet and I just stamped the other words round it after heat embossing in white through this pretty corner stencil.
I dabbed a little bit more embossing powder round the edge before matting onto grey card.
Finished with a couple of scored lines and a bit of twine.
So - you have time to come and join us oif you haven't already done so - and even if you have - MAKE ANOTHER!!!Our Guest designer Gundi and the rest of the team have some great makes to inspire you!

This looks beautifully distressed using this interesting piece of dp Viv, and adding the white embossed flowers to the corner, and an extra flower next to the sentiment works well. What a wonderful idea to add the three extra words to complement the one that was already printed on it too. x
Fantastic card Viv! Love the white heat embossed stenciling over the dark gray patterned paper. This is so cool with the vintage colours and words in the background. Love your finishing with scored lines and twine. xx

What a fabulous card, full of interest and love the paper and that ever so pretty stencilling. I would never have thought to stencil over patterned paper and I have loved this challenge x. Such a stunning card x.
I love this. The white embossing looks stunning on the grey. This is a great idea to use up some of the hoarded/neglected papers.
Thanks for the inspiration.
