Blue Travel Artist Trading Card
Ahoi! Stamps and labels have sometimes the most inspiring motifs. This particular stamp was found in a booklet full of such pictures. The title of the booklet is “Posters, Stamps and Labels” from Artsy College. The papers are acid and lignin free and there are 207 motifs in the booklet. They make wonderful elements for decorating not only artist trading cards but also for cards, tags and scrapbooks. Real stamps and magazine pictures are also another way to find motifs to use for your cards.
