Description This stock is unrestricted (Creative Commons CC0/Public Domain). Use it commercially/non-commercially in whatever way you want.

This stock pack is a collection of images 1A-3B of my "More Old Paper" stock set. I wish I could've fit them all in one pack, but the file-size was too big. Each image is 5100x7019 pixels. 

For once, I didn't use my own font or a default. It's called "Prince Valiant," and I found it here: www.1001freefonts.com/prince_v… Thanks Dieter Steffmann! 

You'll notice pretty quick there's a slight white border around these. I figured some of you might want to keep the edges for a rougher, less perfect look. 

To make these, you crumple then un-crumple some paper, brew some coffee, and literally paint the coffee on. You then bake them at 200-250 degrees Farenheit in the oven, and pull them out in about five minutes or so (you have to check to make sure they're drying but not smoking or blackening.) That's about it. If you want a smoother image, you can put the coffee in a spray-bottle and coat the page evenly. You may have to do a coat-bake-coat strategy there, though. Also, the longer you let the coffee soak in before baking, the darker your page will be. And if you want burnt edges, use cardstock or thicker sketch paper. It looks about the same, but the fire doesn't spread quite as rapidly, so it's easier to control. 

As always, I hope you find this useful.

Thanks! This covers pics 1A-3B in the recent set, and I'm uploading a pack with 4A-7B now. 

I also have an older set that's pretty awesome: niedec-stock.deviantart.com/ar…

And I have all of the images up on Pixabay, which is a royalty-free stock site. It's cool because you can select from a list of sizes you want before downloading: pixabay.com/en/users/Niedec/

So far, I've only used Pixabay for old paper uploads. I don't know why it's only old paper uploads. It just sort of happened.
