FREE Vintage Digital Stamp: Flapper Girl




{Sorry! Image is no longer available!!!}

FREE Digital Stamp!!!

Being an avid fan of Fashion History,
you'll probably notice a majority of the images
you'll find here on this site have people in them...

Many years ago,
(maybe a little more than twenty years ago),
I was an aspiring costume designer...
this is one of my hand drawn
illustrations from then inspired
from the old-style swimsuits...

With the magic of modern day technology,
I was able to turn this illustration
into a digital stamp...enjoy! {wink!}

FREE Vintage Digi Stamp: Circa 1960

{Click on image to download/save}

FREE Digital Stamps!!!

1960 was the dawning of a new decade...

Elvis, the Everly Brothers, Eisenhower, Gunsmoke,
the Flintstones, Etch-A-Sketch...and a gallon of gas was only .31 cents.


If you are ever lost for the right words to add to a handmade card,
like the sentiments of vintage or old-fashion greetings,
here are some that you might enjoy...

I'm so flattered that you stopped by!!!

Vintage Clear Stamp Set - Birthday Wishes

 This sweet vintage girl image is perfect for coloring.

{*UPDATED 8/27/2014*}
This clear stamp set is available
at stampindamour.com


She is hugging a pail...so cute!

You might need some Happy Birthday greetings...vintage-style, of course!




What type of paper should I use for a stamp?

To check out the results for myself, I printed a copy on regular Office Max everyday paper with a laser printer and a copy with Neenah Solar White cardstock with an ink jet printer {printer settings on greeting card}....


Obviously, the regular paper is no match against the Neenah cardstock...for coloring.

Plus, it didn't seem really ideal to use with Copic markers on regular paper - it was difficult to blend and the paper absorbed the ink...as you can see it soaks right through the paper...although, it looks like a nice watercolor painting on the back.

You might be asking,
"Why didn't you run the cardstock through your laser printer?"

My laser printer doesn't seem to like thicker paper.
The ink jet printer handled it well.
No smudging from the Copic markers using an ink jet printer.



This Crate paper would be cute to use...so many pretty paper choices.


Maybe, I'll add a tiny party hat...




And add a "Happy Birthday" greeting...
(printed on regular paper, since I wasn't coloring it).

What type of paper and printer do you typically
use for printing digital stamps for a project?

What is your medium of choice?
(pencils, Copics, SU, or Tombow, etc.)
