Vintage Clip Art - Fleur De Lis - 3 Options



Click on images to enlarge







Recently a reader named Julie requested a Fleur de Lis. I've had numerous requests for this image, over the past few months and I finally came up with one! This one comes from a fabulous 1920 Typography book that I just received a few days ago. Even though it's not request day today, I thought I would go ahead and post this anyway, since I wanted to offer several versions. The original is at the top, all though it was teeny tiny, I played with it all morning in both Photoshop and Illustrator until I could come up with a nice clear image in a large usable size. After that I created a second version, with vintage numbers and typography on it, and then a third with some European flair added to it! You can frame these up, or transfer them onto towels, pillows etc. I think you will find a lot of uses for these!

  10. Well, you've just topped yourself! I just know I can use at least one of your motifs in home decor ways. And I have a cabinet could use a new treatment. Very attractive pictorials!

  12. Thanks so much for this! I especially love the third one since it contains some Belgian places (Schaerbeek, Meir) in it. Think I'll try to print it on fabric, never done that before..., to make a cushion out of it. Thanks once more!!!
    Bye,
