    Flower inspiration

    Tuesday, September 30, 2008, 07:57 AM PST [General]

    I have found some gorgeous inspiration from some old flower images. Of course I have been going gaga over all of these images and creating cards like mad for my etsy page. Here are my newest.  The Golden Age is probably me favorite, just love the colors and image.

    This tulip lily pad image was so delicate and beautiful I knew I had to make a card to go with it.

    Deco style Inspiration

    Saturday, September 27, 2008, 02:44 PM PST [General]

    I recently found some old magazines and books that have these stunning deco images. On a whim I decided to create some cards using a variety of illustrations. My first was one I found in an old childrens magazine in the 20's

    I also had this book I recieved with images from my parents last year, I have been trying out different ideas and embellishments to go with them.

    Lastly, on some of them I am cutting around to make it look like a an old image label.

     

    I have been having so much fun with these, I am planning to make more. I put the first one on etsy and it sold very quickly, was very pleased with the overall movement on these.
