Vintage Image Birthday Card

My last post showed my before and after of lady from a fashion plate that's in the public domain.

I spent a weekend turning her and a few others into birthday cards.

Again, I have used my own patterns for the dresses, backgrounds and upholstery, and used a secret recipe to rough it all up.

This is what I'm doing with my life.

More Vintage Effects - Advertisements

With all the great inspiration I get from the nicely priced downloads at Creative Market, I just can't stop creating images using them!

This ad I created so encompasses all my true loves: old advertisements, vector, vintage effects in Photoshop and ... self-promotion!

Is it sad or commendable that I spend part of my weekends playing with this kinda thing?

Optical Illusions

While researching trends for a client, I came across some optical illusion designs and sort of got caught up in them for an afternoon and made some repeats.

And I got a little queasy looking at them!
