I find it hard to get digital vintage - retro has made a comeback, so I usually end up editing my own pieces to fit, or scan in items from cards and then edit them for my pages. When I talk vintage I'm usually looking at 1930s - 1950s. But then everyone has a different take.
The subdued colours in peach, green, lemon, and blue and the soft outlines of drawings. The focus on nature and children and beauty in the smallest things. I loved my parents books - Digit Dick (although that one could be scary!) or other children stories for children.
So, of course, I had no trouble coming up with a page! I focused on my share cats - you know - the ones that other people own that I visit often or whom are neighbours and therefore share their cats. I'm really good at kitty massages and all my share cats know it and immediately flop over on the furniture when I arrive to get their massage. My closest three share cats have now all passed, and I miss them, even though they weren't my cats.

ReplyDeleteThe comment I was typing vanished so typing again. Lol. I agree with you on the vintage / antique / heritage bungle that happens every now & then. Anywho, coming to your page, I'm in awe of how well you've made the design work with a child & kite in the bg. Very clever. Thank you for joining us at ARTastic.
