Most of the beautiful things you see here at Cafe Cartolina are the works of talented artists and crafts people who put their heart and soul into their work. Even the vintage images you see here are treasures sourced by passionate collectors who are committed to restoring and preserving antique art for everyone to enjoy for years to come. Nothing at Cafe Cartolina is a free printable or a free download. You may not borrow, drag or right click any image for your art or craft because you will find that almost everything here is copyrighted material - this includes everything that falls under the Cartolina brand.

Did you hear that John Derian's doing a line of plates, etc. for TARGET!!! It's only for 8 weeks, beginning in early September. They're melamine plates, but nevertheless.....
Thanks for your comments. It's interesting that John Derian would choose to do an inexpensive plastic plate. I think that the charm of his work is that the images are literally BENEATH a piece of glass which gives one the impression of looking at a picture through a magnifying glass(which I love). I find it hard to imagine that a person could achieve anything similar on melamine unless it is sandwiched between 2 pieces of clear plastic. Very intriguing, I will watch for them at Target with an open mind :-)
Fiona Richards | Cartolina Cards . . . . I have never considered myself a trend follower. The only things I follow are my instincts. Collecting and creating have taught me to trust the art that moves me and question the fads that don't. This blog reflects the diverse design influences behind my work and all the things I love.
