My favourite moment

Hello lovelies, hope you are well! Tonight I am sharing some vintage cards that I have created using these stunning images from Mean Kitty & friends junk journal group over on Facebook. 

Mean Kitty designs the most beautiful images and they are such a pleasure to create with! 

I have used these wonderful distressed black texture and vintage valentines day paper kits.

To complete my cards, I have adhered some maroon film strips and some grunge texture stamps. 

 

I hope that I have inspired you to create your own vintage cards!

Thank you so much for stopping by the Den, I really appreciate your visit and kind comments!

Mail art ATC's

  

Hello lovelies, hope you are well! Today I am sharing some mail art artist trading cards that I have created. 

To create my first atc I have used these wonderful air mail collage journal papers from dream studio 42.

For all of my atc's I have used different papers from the air mail collage journal page kit. I have also used these delightful vintage paper dolls over on Etsy {unfortunately they are out of stock, but you could search for alternative dolls on Etsy or use Tim Holtz paper dolls}

To complete my atc's I have added lots of ephemera and striped washi tape.

 

I hope that I have inspired you to create your own mail art atc's!

For my first card, I wanted to create a steampunk theme; so here I have used this wonderful port hole image from CoD. I have also used these fabulous hammered metal background papers on all of my cards. I have also used these rusty tattered canvas papers from Cheryl Francis art. I have also used some rusty hinges and textured stamps in black ink.  

To my cards I have added these wonderful sea life images that I found on Pinterest and Pixabay.

For this card I have used another port hole image and these rust texture papers. I have also added some fishing net embellishment to complete my card.

For these cards, I have used some more porthole images and Hammered metal papers. These wonderful pirate ship images are also from CoD.

I have also used these fabulous two tone leather papers from Cfa.

I really hope that I have inspired you to create your own vintage/ grungy porthole cards! Thank you so much for stopping by the Den, I really appreciate your visit and kind comments!

The Magician~ sees all, knows all!

Hello lovelies, hope you are well! This evening I am sharing some vintage magical/ mystical cards that I have created. 

For my first card, I have used this stunning magician image from Mean Kitty's Kanvas over on Facebook. These beautiful papers are from the vintage scrapbook paper kit from Manu design studios and distressed black textures from artistic way Co over on Etsy. I have also used black cardstock for my card base. 

For my second card, I have used another beautiful image from mean Kitty's kanvas. The papers I have used are the distressed black textures and family history scrapbook kits. 

I hope that I have inspired you to create your own magical theme cards!
