Hi Jayne, thanks for your interest in my posts! I made the zine several months ago. I love making zines but have a hard time thinking of ideas for them. My sister happened to find the card with my Grandma's name. Quite a find!

Terry Owenby, so glad to have you in our group! The vintage automobile image is great. How long ago did you do your zine? Regarding the postcard with your Grandmother's name - it appears to be old, but I am wondering if your sister added the name, or happened to find it that way? Either way, it is lovely! Thanks for sharing!

A postcard my sister sent me with my maternal Grandmother's name. 

Image of a car I used in a zine about some of my favorite vintage things.

Thanks so much for having me. I love vintage, especially from the 40s and 50s. I enjoy using photos, papers (especially old books), and all sorts of ephemera in collages. I will upload some pieces soon.
