Here are two tintypes from the mid to late 1800's from my personnal collection. I love how the tintype images were hand-tinted. If you use these please send us a link to your art:)
I received my beautiful May Day basket from sweet
Lila. We were joined together in the May Day swap hosted by Kari over at
Artsymama. I love it Lila and thank you for the sweet candle and journal. I love the natural papers on the inside. Today is also Lila's oldest daughter's birthday:)
This is my Artwords entry for the botanical theme. I paper pieced all the elements using handmade papers, watercolor paper and scrapbook papers. I made a contact paper transparency for the wings. I think she's supposed to be Mother Nature.

Your artwords entry is fabulous as always!! Does it get tiresome cutting all of those tiny small pieces of paper??
Love your basket. That looked like such a fun swap. I looked at all of the pics on flickr and everyone really pulled out all the stops, ALL of the baskets were really wonderful!!
How lovely! Your blog is always one that I enjoy visiting. :) You always have something beautifully magical that meets my eye.
