It's time for yet another graphic in my weekly series "Spencerian Saturday"!!! Every Saturday I add another gorgeous image from an early calligraphy book.
Out of all of the alphabet pages in this book, this one is hands down my favorite!! How enchanting are these beautiful graceful letters?! If you look closely, you will see that many of them are embellished with tiny birds and you might even find a butterfly or two! I hope you enjoy these two versions of this romantic alphabet!

I am in awe of your generousity! You have inspired me to give some old pictures I have purchased at flea markets. I need to clean up some of them because they have writing on the photos. I have photoshop 7.0 and I am pretty sure I could remove the lettering by layering, however I haven't been able to figure it out. I am 62 and some things come slowly to me lol.
