'Freebie - Antique Postcards with Script for Art Journals, Altered Books and Smash Books!'

by Mary Lou 'LuLu' Haynes


Howdy and Welcome,

I own lots of vintage and antique ephemera that I'd love to share with my Followers!
Here is a collage of postcards I found on one of my antiquing adventures with my hubby. 

Don't you just love the old handwriting on these old postcards. Makes me wonder about the lives of these folks...and the occassions for sending postcards.

This collage is a Freebie. Right click picture and save to your computer. Please send me a link to your art created with any of these postcards.

YOUR TURN
Do you ever go antiquing or hunting for vintage ephemera? What are your 3 fave types of ephemera to collect? Do you alter ephemera, or use it 'as is' in your art? 

Thanks for stopping by - please leave a comment and come back soon!

Peace,
LuLu
