Antique German book pages ephemera packs/bundles available.

I've put up some antique paper bundles on Etsy - great for art/craft projects. These are in old German font. From booklets printed late 1800s, early 1900s in the USA. Some have advertising which is interesting and unique. Great inspiration.


Ideas for using antique ephemera book pages for paper arts/crafts - ACEO, greeting cards, tags, art journals, scrapbooks and more. http://tinyurl.com/k7rqu6m  Dreamy Papers. Paper available on Etsy.

Details on how I made the projects, above, you'll find on my Dreamy Papers blog: http://dreamypapers.blogspot.com/

A tip for art journal pages. Printing shortage. Using washii tape.

My printer tends to print a little 'short' of a full page at times - so I have a blank gap. For art journal pages this is a bit annoying, but I was very pleased with the results of using a strip of black dotted washii tape along the bottom. It fitted in perfectly, and for this printed page, it just added the right amount of subtle interest.
If you collect old papers, you could cut a tape-like strip of text, and paste that. Having a ragged top to it could also work well.
