Some more Vintage Postcards

Here are the rest of the postcards I was able to get at the antiques show this weekend. There were some crazy postcard prices there but I found one dealer with postcards in my price range and was able to get these really pretty ones:) I love the German one that traveled all the way to Berlin.

Vintage Ads over 100 years old

I just love the May 1895 edition of Harper's New Monthly Magazine. I found it on Etsy and just had to have it. I have scanned some of the neat old advertisements and added them to products at my Zazzle store such as the two shirts shown below. They are also on greeting cards, ties, and more. For these two shirts I turned the color of the page transparent which left just the black part of the add so the words in the ad will be whatever color shirt you choose.

A Children's Book Page

I think this is just adorable. It came from McFadden Language Series :Grammar and Composition by Effie B. McFadden Copyright 1915 by Rand McNally & Company.

A Vintage Postcard

Just thought I would show one of the vintage postcards in my personal collection of vintage postcards. Don't ya just love the hands and the doves? So pretty. If I haven't already said I have recently gotten 50 vintage postcards with birds on them and am slowly adding them to products at my Zazzle store. Check out the store if you like vintage postcards on products. I haven't added this postcard to products yet but I probably will sometime soon.

P.S. I have also cleaned up my blog and deleted a lot of posts. I think a product a day was just too much esp. those days I also posted about like 5 other things. I'll try and keep the posts down from now on. Maybe a product a week or every two weeks would be better than every single day.

A Card From June

Isn't this beautiful? June sent this card with the journal that I won. Her son is in hospital. My thoughts are prayers are with her. She runs Art Freebies and other blogs also.

Browse Expressions Mousepads

This has been awarded Today's Best February 23, 2009 :) For the mousepad I cut the words from the bottom of the vintage postcard digitally doing no damage to the actual vintage postcard. I recently won (bought) 50 vintage postcards all with birds on them at an auction so I have been busy scanning them and uploading them as products on Zazzle. I am pleased to be picked among the thousands of products on there as one of today's best products.

ATC sized Art

I made several little ATC sized artworks last night mostly from items from the package that came in the mail yesterday from Lorri Lennox. The "Life" card is by Lorri displayed with her very pretty business card. I need to design myself a business card so I can hand it out to people who ask about where I sale my art so I don't have to say online and they can have all the actual links to go look and maybe buy some;) Enjoy! My scanner didn't scan some of them very well but at least you can see what I have started doing with the package I won from Lorri. Thanks Lorri!

Using This Vintage Image

From Lorri Lennox on the post I have created this Digital artwork. Lorri's blog is ARTIVITY, where I was the lucky winner of an amazing prize that is on it's way to me all the way from Australia. The background is a German page I got from winning a box of ephemera on Paper Digital Art and Imagesbykim. I used the actual sheet of paper on a tiny treasure box I made for my grandmother but I scanned it before I used it so I could use it over and over again.

Art on the Darkside Carousel Challenge

There is a carousel challenge at Art On the Dark Side Challenges. I am entering this piece. I hope it fits into the challenge. Well, I am off the run errands today. I will be back hopefully for awhile over the weekend. I have been busy taking care of my bottle babies and I have more stuff to do over the weekend so I might not be back until Monday. I have a few posts scheduled over the weekend though so even if I am not on the computer this weekend it will look like I am. LOL
