♥ Texture Time ♥

Hello everyone ~ thank you for visiting me today! Today I am sharing with you today some of my recent textured images. Also I am sharing with you all some of my own textures. They're nothing elaborate to start with ~ just some very simple vintage textures made from old paper, postcards and a little antique lace thrown in for good measure! They are FREE to download ~ just go to my FREE TEXTURES page and follow the links.

This an older image of mine which I reprocessed using one of my own textures. The texture is "Plain Vintage Postcard 1" can can be downloaded from my FREE TEXTURES page.

I used the same texture on this image also and simply added some vintage text and a stamp! It is a bundle of old postcards dating from the early 1900's, neatly tied with some string and topped with a sprig of lavender from my own garden!

Just some lavender from my garden on some very old vintage paper. I hope to add this vintage paper for download as a texture at a future date if anyone might be interested in using it. I added the vintage text and the border in processing the image.

Another view of the vintage music book with a paper texture added from The CoffeeShop Blog ~ again you will find a link opposite. The flowers are hydrangeas from my garden! I hope to use some tiny bits of this old music book in some textures in the future!

Antique Linen & Lavender

This is some Edwardian linen again topped with a little gift tag and some lavender. I added one of my own textures called  Vintage Paper 1" and it is available for download on my FREE TEXTURES page. I also added a simple white rough edge border. I plan to use some of this old linen in some texture work in the future. 

Well, thank you for taking time to view my photography and texture work ~ come and visit again very soon!
