Vintage Collage Designs

August 2, 2018
There are ALOT of Vintage Collage Designs, so be ready for a long post!
The overall appearance of all journals in this range is similar, so you can buy a matching set, but the individual vintage images that make up the design are specific to the journal's topic. So the food related journals have vintage food memorabilia from e.g. old recipe books, whereas Garden Planners have vintage posters for gardens etc.. Here they are:
FOR FOODIES
Composition Notebook with Vintage Food Design

The same Vintage Food design is on a:

Vincent van Gogh

August 2, 2018
Vincent van Gogh was a Dutch expressionist, sadly known for cutting his ear off after arguing with Gauguin. He suffered violent mood swings which often left him suicidal (he took his own life age 37). Other moods charged his creativity. In the 2 months prior to his death Van Gogh completed a work every single day.

Hokusai's Great Wave off Kanagawa

August 1, 2018
Hokusai was a Japanese print-maker who lived in the early 19th Century and had no less than thirty different names during his lifetime! The iconic Great Wave off Kanagawa is the first print from a large series, which he created under the name Katsushika Hokusai during his sixties (when he was widely regarded to be producing his best work … so it’s never too late!).
