How to Use Antique Clip Art: Layering with PNG Image

goodpostcard004project

I’ve been experimenting with some of the antique images I’ve posted here on The Antique Image, and thought you would like some inspiration from a project I tried. I converted the first image to .png format. Then, I placed it over this one of an antique postcard.

I think I need to work on the .png image a bit, making it softer, so that it blends nicer with the bottom layer.

Layering in this way creates lovely collages and gives new life to images. I hope you’ve been inspired by my little experiment. Try layering the words over some of your antique images!

Be patient! The .png image is a bit big, so it might take several seconds before it completely downloads.
