Who is Amy J. Rowan? Well, she's the imaginative force behind Art School Girl.

Fueled by a passion for paper and a love for specialty printing processes, Art School Girl specializes in one-of-a-kind hand made paper goods. Expertly crafted from recycled materials and often sewn or printed by hand, each piece is artisan quality.
She even sells 'art, some creations of vintage imagery on old index cards:
