SIB 115

Here are some more images from the children's book about Japan form last week. I just adore these images. Each on is so unique and the colors are so vivid for such an old book. I just think the inks they used back then were so much better.

Here is a card I made using one of the images from this week. I hope it inspires you to use the images. I stamped the background with a stamp by Paula Best. For the heart frame I used a Martha Stewart around the page set of punches. The blue paper is embossed using an embossing folder by Cuttlebug.

As always feel free to use any of the images on my website in your artwork but please do not post or sell the original image on the web in a group or collection. If you use one in a project and post it to your site please link it back to here or leave a comment in the comments section of the image on this site so we can all enjoy. I love to see what you create. That is what inspires me to post and collect more vintage items.

Inspired by the SIB

So I don't know about you but I found this week's SIB very inspirational. Here are two quick cards I created using the images, some new Asian embossing folders by Cuttlebug and various stamps from a small set I got along time ago. The stamps have no markings, but I think they are an All Night Media set.
