So my discovery that I could make my own notepads sent me hurtling down a rabbit hole, and I spent all day using my bird images to make lined and unlined stationery papers! I’ve been struggling trying to figure out graphics using my bird imagery because my birds are so richly dark, and that’s a problem when it comes to paper… I mean, what’s the point of using a pretty stationery if you can’t read what you just wrote?!

But I think I figured something out that lets me indulge in some texture fun that I absolutely love! I now have an approach to using my birds in a way that won’t darken too much of the paper, with out my needing to crop each one into something that looks like an afterthought…

I’m so excited about these! I’ll be packaging several together and putting them up for sale as print-it-yourself digital downloads in my shops soon at https://coreyartuscommunity.com/collections/all and my shop at Goimagine: https://goimagine.com/coreyartusimagery/ .

But I thought I’d share one set here, just for sneak peek funsies!

This little sampler has JPGs of a single sheet of paper with lined & unlined versions as well as a business-sized envelope. I like to print them borderless, but I know most printers don’t do that and they should look just fine with a nice white margin around them defining their edges!

Enjoy!
