PARIS POST CARD

Played around with one of my favourite glamour girl stamps this evening and decided to make her into a poster girl pin-up. The top border is made from a length of ribbon with metal clips which reminds me of suspenders. I bought a reel of it at a boot fair from a haberdasher who was selling up shop and haven't ever found a use for it.... this seemed to me, to be the perfect opportunity. It has all sorts of potential for hanging things from it as well. It was a miracle I could find it when I needed it tonight!
