Five to Go

I made this tag from a vintage postcard (dated on the back 1898!). The purple ink inspired the color scheme so I used purple papers from my stash and vintage postage stamps.

Mid Century Christmas Wishes

One of my favorite children's book illustrators are the husband-wife team of Martin and Alice Provensen. They also did a wonderful set of screen printed Christmas cards illustrating the 12 Days of Christmas. The cards were done in the 1960's and I've been looking for them to purchase for a number of years. This year, I got (half) lucky. Etsy seller Finds of the Attic had 6 of the cards for sale. Now, to find the rest of the series!

There still some sets from Finds in the Attic available - buy your own here.

Shades of Blue

I've had these tags done all week but with lots of rain, it was hard to find time to photograph. These 2 tags were done with vintage wallpaper and handmade papers.
