Fabulous French Ephemera - Chocolate!

Click on images to enlarge

I'm so excited to share this fabulous piece of French Ephemera with you today!! I'm sure by now you've figured out how much I love all things French, and especially old French papery things with old French words on them! This is a gorgeous antique Chocolate / Cacao ad. The original is so dreamy with it's lovely worn patina, perfect for collage or mixed media art! The second version has been cleaned up and enlarged, and is perfect for those of you that do Iron on Transfers. This would make a gorgeous Towel, tote bag, or Pillow!

  39. Dear Wonderful Karen,
    In my mind you have already won. For your generosity and artistry and careful choices.
    But I know how much this award means, so, yes, of course I nominated you and have in the past!

    You are the most deserving blogger of graphic imagery on the ol' World Wide Web.
