Twine-tied bundle of a 1947 independence-day newspaper

Deep black, softly vignetted background with a subtle overhead spotlight falling on a stack of aged sepia newspapers tied with rough jute twine in a bow. A small saffron-white-green ribbon tucked under the string adds the only colour, and a torn postmarked paper tag leans against the right edge. Realistic paper texture with gentle shadows makes it feel like an archival still life, and the stark white type below keeps the mood restrained.

Layout: Logo top-left and website top-right; the newspaper bundle is centred in the upper-middle half, with a centred bold headline, tagline and hashtag stacked below on a black field with generous negative space.
Typography: Heavy condensed sans-serif caps for the headline; light geometric sans for the tagline and hashtag, all white.

Design an original Independence Day Instagram story for my brand, following the art direction below. It describes a reference design in full, so you don't need to see the reference.

My brand: [my brand], [what my business sells].
Language for any text on the design: English.
Size: 1080 × 1920 px (story / reel).

Art direction to follow:
- The idea: Twine-tied bundle of a 1947 independence-day newspaper.
- Look and feel: Deep black, softly vignetted background with a subtle overhead spotlight falling on a stack of aged sepia newspapers tied with rough jute twine in a bow. A small saffron-white-green ribbon tucked under the string adds the only colour, and a torn postmarked paper tag leans against the right edge. Realistic paper texture with gentle shadows makes it feel like an archival still life, and the stark white type below keeps the mood restrained.
- Layout: Logo top-left and website top-right; the newspaper bundle is centred in the upper-middle half, with a centred bold headline, tagline and hashtag stacked below on a black field with generous negative space.
- Typography: Heavy condensed sans-serif caps for the headline; light geometric sans for the tagline and hashtag, all white.
- Colours: #040504, #000000, #6f5e4b, #151513, #8b7863, #a18c76 (background #040504, text #a18c76, accent #a18c76).
- Mood and details: nostalgic, solemn, proud, vintage newspaper, twine bundle, tricolour ribbon, postal stamp, archival headline.
- Reference image, only if you can open it: https://media.uidiscovery.com/captures/creatives/166351779983180653-85780b2e352e.jpg (if you can't, carry on from these notes; don't ask me for it).

Rules:
- Build the same kind of idea around [my brand]: make my product or service the hero, the way the reference does. Don't copy its artwork, people, products, logo or text.
- Leave a clean space for my logo. Never invent a logo, prices, phone numbers or claims.
- One strong idea, few words, and text large enough to read on a phone.

Before you design, ask me for my brand name and what my business sells. Then create the image.
