I hope you are enjoying the iron work as much as me.  I made the fan last week and I have been experimenting on a few collage cards.

Iron Work Patterns

I hope you are enjoying these intricate iron work patterns from 1895.  They are inspiring.  I can see them used as backgrounds or even the main focus of a card. They could be used with one of the vintage images at my other site Clearly Vintage.  The half circle one could be used as a fan.  I have so many ideas and I know you do too.   I would love to see a project or card you have made with one of them.  Email me a photo of your project by Sunday 1/23/2012 at 6pm EST and I will post it here.  Be sure to include your name and the country you are from for me to include in the post.

Here is my project.

A couple of iron works from the 1895 Delineator.  I will be post several more of these this week.  They make excellent backgrounds.

Beautiful Iron Work

Here are a few iron work designs.  These images are originally from a 1895 The Delineator magazine.  These will make great backgrounds for cards.

Here are a few more images from the 1911 McCalls magazine for you.

Everyone seems to like the images edited by Pixelmator.  They are extremely clear but I am scanning at a very high dpi.  Next I will have to experiment with lowering the dpi to see how low I can go with out losing too much clarity.  The following images are from a December 1911 McCall's Magazine.  This was truly an elegant time.  When I was a teenager a version of this look came back again for a short time.  There was lots of lace, big collars and beautiful sleeves. I just loved Gunne Sax clothing by Jessica McClintock.

Two from McCalls

I finally had a chance to download a new program today for repairing my images.  I will be trying a few programs the next few weeks.  Hopefully I will find one that works for all of my blogs.  The one I used today is called Pixelmator. Please let me know if you like the clarity on these pictures.

Today I have two adorable images from the December 1911 McCalls magazine.  You can see more of the images from this magazine at my other blog Clearly Vintage.
