Vintage Clip Art - Beautiful French Typography


Click on images to enlarge



Here we have some more samples of fabulous antique French typography! This looks like it would be for something sooo romantic, but I think actually it has something to do with hardware. Still beautiful though! The original version at the top, is so lovely for collage. And I've included a couple of black and white versions, one more rustic, and one a bit bolder, so that you can use them for your transfer projects, like pillows, towels, etc.

  7. LOVE these!!!!!!!! What a SUPER IDEA to transfer them onto towels!!!!!!! ONE QUESTION: If you transfer them onto lets say, cotton towels, like flour sak; would you use iron on transfers??? (Just thinking.... You probably would want to keep them as decor items!)I think I'm going to try this!!!!!! Thanks!!!!

  8. Thank you everyone!

    Becky,
    Yes, you could use iron on transfers, just reverse the image first. Or you could use the citra solv method too. If you check in my DIY section, you will find more info on transfer methods, as well as some images already reversed and ready to go! You can find the info Here.
