Fire in the Grate - Sunday Scans

This wonderful lineart was scanned from an book of children's poetry from the early 1900's.  I love the pen and inks to be found in this book--I've had the book since I was a child.  If you look at my drawing style, you can see how these long-gone artists have inspired my own artwork.

Have a lovely day!

Al's Photography Blog, by our good friend Al, hosts "Sunday Scans" each week.  Sunday Scans is a place for all things scanned.  So pick up your artwork, old photo albums, ephemera, postcards, ANYTHING which can be scanned and join in the fun!

Camp Girl - Guest Heart Thursday

As you can see, this little Valentine's Day Card is perfect for summer vacation!  This chic girl is ready for every challenge.  Her tent is up, the campfire is built and don't those eggs she's cooking look wonderful!

However, this little miss is sitting awfully close to that brightly flaming fire.  There's a little metal rivet.  Her arm moves the cast iron skillet up and down--I think she'd better lift that pan a bit higher, or those eggs will be toast!
