Rainy Day Journaling Cards and a Vintage Freebie

Curtsey Boutique Rainy Day Journaling Cards

Here in Georgia the weather has been blissfully balmy over the last few days. I can't imagine we won't be getting a few Spring showers though and so I whipped up a few vintage inspired journaling cards for the puddle splashing opportunities to come. The images come from an early 1920s vintage catalog and show boys, girls and ladies rocking the waterproof fashions of their day.

They each measure 3 X 4 and these cards work with ATCs, Project Life or any scrapbooking project. My favorite is the bingo card with the rain boots in the free space - so fun!

They are available at the Curtsey Boutique in paper format or in digital format.

I've been working on some baby themed images and I thought I would share a bit of vintage digital love.   Isn't this the cutest little girl in an old bib below? Perfect for some many fun things!

Waiting for the puddles,

Vintage Sewing Flash Card Freebies

Curtsey Boutique Vintage Fashion Flash Cards

  Lately, I've been building quite the hoard of vintage publications, and because my inner historian has threatened my not so inner crafty self with an emotional melt down  I've come to the epiphany that I simply can't cut up a 1909 copy of McCalls. I just can't do it. But I HAVE to use these images!! They are amazing.

So I've been using trial and error (mostly error) to do more with Photoshop and miracle of all miracles I've come up with some Vintage Sewing Flash Cards. I'm planning on doing a whole set from A to Z (any ideas for X?) all about vintage fashion and sewing terms.  Feel free to download the two pictured here for free for personal use. I'll be offering the entire set in the Curtsey Boutique in digital and print in 4x6 and 3x4 for those who like unique Project Life embellishment cards.

Have a fantastic day,

CarrieAnne

Vintage Mini Bingo Card Tag

Tag with Curtsey Boutique Bingo Cards and Felt Roses

 It sounds incredibly dorky, but I really like playing bingo. Whenever we go on holiday or if I am hanging with my older relatives who are champion competitive players, I love buying a card and playing along. I seldom win, but the chance of coming away with a free cruise or silly snow globe gets me every time.

This tag showcases the Curtsey Boutique's new Vintage Mini Bingo Cards and our Cheery Cherry Rolled Felt Roses. The little Precious Pink Butterfly is a sneak peak at what we have coming up for January's new products.

Curtsey Boutique Vintage Mini Bingo Cards

I like the way vintage bingo cards look on cards and in scrapbook pages, but wanted a smaller easier to work with size. Our vintage minis come on either white or kraft cardstock, in green, pink, red and black ink and measure approximately 2.25 x 2.75 inches.


They are 4 for $1.00 and can be found in our Dollar Deals section HERE.
