Is reproduction vintage okay to use? The link posted is for reproducing vintage images. I have lots of that sort of ephemera, but very little in the way of honest to goodness vintage, and I am not sure I can date my vintage labels back as far as 1920 (flapper era), though I suspect lots are that old.

Zmrzlini,

Reproduction vintage is fine. Scrappinaddict28 is my friend & we talked about this swap. We both use reproductions stuff too.

Your labels sound perfect. I think she was just trying to say about from the 50's & 60's stuff.

Well, I just realize my previous post doesn't make much sense.

The last line should say:

I think she was just trying to stay away from 1950s + stuff

Boo is right reproductions are fine

If we had to use original stuff in art I wouldn't be an artist:) lol -- my poor printer gets a work out from all the things I copy or print.

But I would like to stay from anything beyone the flapper era...

I received my Beautiful ATC's in the mail yesterday from Sparrow -- they are just LOVELY!!!

My ATC's will hit the mail to my two partners on Monday.

Betsy and Doreen I put your ATC's in todays mail, Doreen it will probably take at least a week maybe a bit more to get yours mail from here to Canada fluxuates sometimes it gets there quickly sometimes it takes longer -- but I did drop them off at the post office so that should help a bit in the time frame:-)

I received 3 wonderful Vintage ATC from Cindi McBroom. Harvest, Dogs & a vingate little girl.

I'm from Tennessee & my partner was from Tennessee. How cool that I've meet someone new from my state in an international swap.
