Lazy days

I had doubts with these Penny Black stickers. The picture is printed on clear matte plastic, so I was worried how much the edges would show on the paper, but as it turned out they blend into the background quite nicely. And since the plastic is matte, it does not clash with paper. Nice.

I chalked the edges of the sticker panel to highlight the torn edges. I chose the patterned papers to coordinate with the sticker but mere browns would have looked dull, so the brighter striped paper with greens and yellows helps to cheer things up and break the horizontal lines. A bit of paw-pattern ribbon and a greeting with orange brads finishes the card nicely.
