Christmas Typography Images
Love, love, love this!!! Pictured above is the back of an antique trade card, and it has the most wonderful Typography on it!! The card was made to advertise a “Grande Christmas Exhibition” at a Boston Toy Emporium! I’ve kept it pretty much in its original condition. I think the staining and wear spots are perfectly lovely.
This is a wonderful bit of Antique Ephemera from an old Penmanship book! The little sample was created in 1876 for Minnie from her friend Hamilton! Isn’t the Typography fabulous?!! Shown above is the original version, and I created a Black and White one as well that you will find in a section below.
Featured here is a lovely Antique Ephemera piece! This piece shows a Fancy Frame with some beautiful Christmas and New Years Typography on it! It was originally used as an advertising piece. I love the little Bird on this one too!
Shown above is a lovely old Christmas postcard … or at least the back of it anyway. It has a sweet hand written Christmas greeting on it and a green stamp that is postmarked on Christmas Eve 1906. So dear! You can find more Postcard Back Images HERE.
Here’s another old Postcard back. This one was never sent but it has a sweet Christmas greeting on it a place where you can fill in a name for who it is from. This one might make a cute tag for a gift!
Here is the latest addition to this collection. Here’s a fun little piece of Ephemera that has some very fancy text! The message says “Christmas comes but Once a Year”. I love the delicate Holly leaves that frame it up.

This is a marvelous Free Vintage Sheet Music Printable! I scanned this one from an Antique Sheet Music Book in my collection, it dates to Circa 1873. The title is Star upon Star, which I thought would work beautifully in your Christmas Craft or DIY Projects!
Victorian Christmas Scrap Images
I don’t really know what this was originally. Someone cut this off or out of something a long time ago. It may have been from a candy box or perhaps a box of greeting cards. At any rate I think it’s a lovely piece with wonderful Victorian scrolly fonts! The label reads Compliments of the Season. I’ve had this one on the blog for many years, this is an updated version that’s a higher resolution than the original. This one has been quite popular, I’ve seen it used in so many beautiful projects and designs!
Seen above is is the back of the Victorian Christmas Scrap piece shown below. It is just as charming with its delicate Frame and sweet sentiment as the front!
Here is the front side of the precious little Victorian Christmas Scrap! Displaying a pretty Pink Rose and tiny Butterfly, I just love this charming heart graphic.

Rachel says
The amount of ads and pop ups and videos on each page is getting out of hand. I’m a premium member and those pages are fine, but your free pages are barely loadable, navigable, and viewable now. I get the need for revenue, but yikes.
Karen Watson says
Hi Rachel, I’m sorry about the ads. They do support the site and this time of year is the busiest time as the advertisers spend more of their budget during the holiday season. You may want to wait and come back to the free blog again in January. Also, the best way to view the site is on a computer as the ads are less intrusive than on a phone. And of course the Premium site is ad free always, so you may want to just spend most of your time there. I hope that helps!

Absolutely love this! Though I must say, a bit late for me and my craftiness – all of my Christmas cards have been mailed and received already! Definitely saving this for the backside of next year’s card/envelope! Thank you!
