Our image collections present a wonderful array of original and antique reproductions, carefully and lovingly re-imagined, for use in your collage arts, journals, card creations, ATCs.
PaperWhimsy Classic Images have been a staple for collage and mixed media artists worldwide for over 20 years. These images were created using antique photos and software programs to digitally alter the photos to create new works of art.
We have an attic full of wonderful inspiration to share what artists have created with our images over the last two decades - lovely ideas that never get too old to enjoy.
