Digital Two for Tuesday 12








The two images for this week's challenge are from a Jolly Times Magic Drawing Book from the early 1900's. I have scanned several birds for us to play with this time. I hope you take the challenge and create something wonderful.
This week our wonderful guest designer Helen has created a beautiful heritage scrapbook page and a greeting card. Her detailed work shows how versatile vintage digital images can be. I hope you will be inspired as much as I am by her talent. Here is her bio. " I am a wife, mom of 3 and 2 fur balls. I am raising my kids in the town I grew up in so we know a lot of people here. You go to the football games and the small fests we have and know almost everyone. I am an independent consultant for The Angel Company. I love to craft - anything I can get my hands on I will try. I really would like to get published and have my own line with my kids - our own business. I have 2 blogs one is just everything and the other is just TAC.

I came across digi tues and fell in love. I love the old images! Ladies were classy not trashy,the men were hot! Tell me someone better than Cary Grant, he held his looks even in his old age. You can watch a great old movie with the whole family and not worry about what they might see. I was honored when Cora asked me if I would like to guest host. The creations on her blog are amazing and I hope that people will still visit after they see my stuff. LOL. Well when your done here go to my blog and see what else I did with these images. Have a great day and God bless.
The images were colored with prisma colored pencils and OMS (odorless mineral spirits). "
