ISO: vintage stuffs

Neona, so glad the links/ideas were helpful, and thank you so much for the praise! It's always so delightful to me when other people enjoy what I make.

Lorien, it's really interesting hearing about your process as a scrapper keeping an eye out for non-Christian, religious themed kits. I wonder if we could have a pagan themed blog train here sometime? Or maybe it would turn out really cheesy and appropriative, since it wouldn't be the actual religion for many of the people designing. Yeah, on second thought, that's not a great idea. It definitely squicks me when people appropriate Buddhist symbology and turn "Zen" into the equivalent of "spa." (I wasn't raised Buddhist but have spent the last 15 years very involved with the Western Vipassana community.)

I´m not the person to say that someone that is not insider can´t do a good job on a kit. I´m working very hard to make kits that work for the northen hemispheres, even being a southern-hemisphererer. Time will tell if the fall kit I´m finishing, for example, will be useful or not for the northern-hemisphereres, since if had to make a kit about my fall it would be sad, gray, full of pollution and with no pumpkings. Even to my love songs kit I had to research a little bit - for me, it´s a fun process and I always learn something new, but I don´t know if people would be comfortable to research other´s beliefs... And I´m not sure if there are too many pagans on digiscrap... I saw a wiccan tagger designer once, a long time ago, and, on digiscrap communities I can remember very few people that said that are non-christian religions - I don´t know if there indeed are just a few, or if they simply didn´t have the opportunity to talk about it (maybe fearing judgement by the Christian fellows?)

PS: did you know that the yin-yang symbol actually has a name? According to the thaoist, it´s called Tai-ji, or something like that...

Yin and yang are the names of the energies represented in the symbol. Yin is the "black" part and yang is the "white" part. But calling the symbol "Yin-Yang" is the same that call a pentacle "five elements" or a cross "death" - I just included this note because of Violet comment on "people [who] appropriate Buddhist symbology and turn "Zen" into the equivalent of "spa." " - I feel the same always when I see the symbol called Yin-Yang, since I studied some thaoism/daoism....

Nearly all of my bundles have a vintage flair. I'm not sure if any of the designs from my 'Chills and Thrills' bundle could be what you're looking for. I'll link the whole shebang...and you can figure out from there if specific kits would work or not. Before too long, I'm hoping to get the templates uploaded as well...and then individual elements will be available.

Here is the bundle.
