Wishing You a Joyous New Year!
Posted by Karen Goode on
This lovely image from a vintage French postcard is from 1915 ~ one hundred years ago! Sending greetings for New Years ~ to wish a Happy New Year or a Joyous Annee or Bonne Annee ~ was a very popular custom in the Edwardian era. We have hundreds in our collection, most French but also Italian, Dutch, German, and English. Most of our French cards are photos, while most of our American New Year greetings are illustrations, featuring artists such as Clapsaddle and Brundage. Whichever style you prefer, these antique images are great for your 21st century card making and...

I've created five new Lunagirl digital collage sheets featuring images of music, musicians, dance, and dancers! This one is perhaps my favorite, just because it turned out so sweet.

My vintage ballet dancers are available for download today! Below are two more dance collage sheets -- Bring On...

We have many antique French postcards of this beautiful Victorian Edwardian diva, Lina Cavalieri. "La Cavalieri" had quite a colorful life! She was orphaned at age 15, and ran away from a convent orphanage to tour Italy with a theater troupe. She sang at cafes and music halls in Vienna and Paris, and by age 20 was famous across Europe. Lina Cavalieri studied with the top singers of the day, but was known as much for her beauty, fiery temperament, and love of emeralds as for her pleasant voice. She boasted over 800 marriage proposals, of which she accepted four!...
Garden Girls Printable Shabby Chic Tags
Posted by Karen Goode on
So many new printable tags sheets... here are two that I created using vintage photo postcards and some amazing floral frames and shabby chic French ephemera. I'll plan on creating more in this theme. I call them Garden Girls! Victorian girls and Edwardian ladies peer out playfully, framed by beautiful garden flowers and fancy scrollwork. I've also included blank versions, so you can make double-sided tags or just have some variety to use for your projects. I hope you like them! More to come...
