A 96 year old neighbor of mine gave me quite a stack of German stickers that must be over 50 years old. They are incredibly fragile.They are gorgeous and I am pleased to be the proud owner.
I made her this set of six All Occasion cards with some of the stickers.
I chose white on white as the stickers speak for themselves. A Cuttlebug EF and a Spellbinder make the card more complete.
I am sure she will love them.

The stickers AND the cards are absolutely beautiful. You were right to do white only so as not to take away from the beauty of those stickers.

This set of cards is gorgeous. Your neighbor must have stored the stickers well, since they haven't faded and are still in pristine condition. Beautiful.

How wonderful to put these stickers to use in a way that can be admired and appreciated. Placing them on the embossed white is the only way to display their beauty.
