Not only is this Concord and 9th flower stamp one of my favourite and best-used stamps ever, but it seems it is also a favourite of MANY others. The challenge is to keep it 'fresh'!
For the 'text' challenge I paper-pieced it with a book page - the book was about politics and some of the words still seemed too prominent so I also stamped a text stamp over the book page. I coloured a little with grey marker and added black enamel drops and a scrap of stripy paper.

I just love this, the paper piecing with the bookpage is fab. Must try that myself.
Really attractive card! Love the layout and the black and white look!
Love the monochromatic colours and how you emphasised the text is fabulous. What a beautiful stamp and what a beautiful card Marina...love it x.
Paper piecing is one of your signature styles and here you’ve used it so cleverly with the word prompt. The stamped flowers look beautiful colored with a little grey and I love the addition of the black enamel dots.
This is gorgeous - love how you used the text, Jo x
