I've come across an amazing trove of vintage images lately and these are some of my very favorite. Ancient ships, compasses and anchors, even a mermaid in the same style!

It's getting hot in here...
If this office was a hot air balloon we'd be soaring! Speaking of which, here is a fantastic little snippet of Hot Air Balloon Ephemera...
I've kept the vintage patina on this piece...I think it adds to the charm!

Squid-deliciousness!
Some five years ago I picked up a book about Giant squids at the used book store. It was long before the Japanese managed to photograph one in the deep water and all the stories were steeped in legend and mystery. Giant Squid were categorized alongside Bigfoot and the Loch Ness Monster. Today we know better, but there is still something captivating about the notion of exotic sea creatures living in a deep sea world we can barely comprehend.
And this is what inspired me to create...
A cephalopods photoshop brush set! Oh, my the squidly delights!
And since this blog is all about the free and beautiful, here is a one of these squiddies for your artistic pleasure. Enjoy!
