For tag number 3, I used vintage music, an antique document and a piece of a cigar label. I added a bit of gold paper and some rubber stamping in gold.

Inspiration Thursday
Since my blog is called "Art & Inspiration", I thought I would start Inspiration Thursday to share some of the things that inspire me. This week is vintage mail. I love old letters and postcards with interesting postage and beautiful handwriting. Most of them I can't even read but but so nice to look at!
I've purchase my old mail on Etsy, Ebay, at the flea market and vintage shops. Affordable, they don't take up much room and each one is unique.
