Vintage Embossed Die Cut Chromolithograph Scraps - Animal Wannabes
More Scraps, Dresdens & Die Cuts
From the mid-20th century, super cute scraps feature animals in professions and activities normally reserved for their human friends. There are bears, birds, monkeys and more bowling, juggling, delivering the mail and playing the banjo. Artists, musicians and waiters and more, offer their more humorous side for inclusion in your artworks. We're not sure whether we wannabe the animals or if they wannabe human.
As with many of the scraps and die cuts made in the 20th century, these are children in adult situations. The advent of space exploration in the 1950s and 1960s, led to many products such as these. Rather than intricately die cut motifs, these are nicely expressed vignettes that are die cut into shapes - probably meant for découpage. We're particularly attracted to the colors in this production - there is a special tone that makes the scraps seem older than they even really are!
The scrap relief sheet is approximately 9 inches by 7 inches, ready for you to clip and use in your artwork. And each sheet is lightly embossed to accent. The shapes make these perfect for accenting boxes, pencil cups or other such items.

Barbed Wire Animal
More Animals
Made from barbed wire that actually endangered animals around the world, our barbed wire animal is stylish and unique. Each is handmade by traditional wire artists. This makes a great reminder that we share the planet with all living beings and we must all protect each other.
A major portion of the proceeds for this wonderful sculpture supports world animal rights organizations. We're not quite sure which animal this represents, but all are alike, with expected variation due to the nature of hand-made art.

Personal Power Animals for Guidance, Protection and Healing
Horse heals emotional wounds. Buffalo guards new ventures. Raven foretells the future. Drawing on sacred teachings, ancient and modern, this practical new guide helps you identify and honor your personal power animals—those inner companions in the forms of natural or magical animals whose qualities you need to progress in this world.
Access their wisdom as healers, protectors, oracles, and life guides, using simple exercises and activities: meditations; spirit journeys; making an altar and protective amulets; and interpreting animal oracles and dreams. Meet animals in myth and in Celtic, Egyptian, and Native American spirituality. A complete directory provides background and interpretations for 75 land, sea, and air animals, as well as magical beasts like the dragon, phoenix, and unicorn.
We were delighted with this book - for reference and wisdom. Not only does the author, Madonna Gauding, offer activities and discussions, but she provides the background and traditions of the world's many cultures that confirm our connection to the other spirits of this world. This trade paperback measures 7-1/2 by 9-/14 inches, has 144 pages full of wonderfully spiritual illustrations.
