A Happy Easter

Of course there are cherubs for Easter! Not as many as for Valentine's Day, and there are a few more serene ones. The Easter cherubs are not quite as whimsical as the Valentine ones. Today I have scanned a couple of cards with cute and playful cherubs, don't you agree they are absolute darlings? I…

All Is Well That Ends Well 1910

Another cherub today, I think he fits well with the 2 cards I posted yesterday 🙂 This one has a missing corner, unfortunately, but I'm sure the resourceful crafters out there can fix it... Feel free to use this image for your personal art and enjoyment! Love & Light Gunnvor Karita

Love’s Greeting 1912

There are cherubs for you today! What a surprise, you say? Well, in my opinion there can never be enough cherubs 😀 Feel free to use these for you personal art. And why not print them, punch a hole in each and use them as gift tags? I prepared a collage sheet for that purpose…

I am decorating a large can (I got a couple from a local restaurant today) and I wanted to use my fave cherub, posted HERE, with a couple of other cards to match, so these are the ones I picked 🙂 I know the letter cards are definitely Ellen Clapsaddle, and I believe so are…

Todays post features a card from a set called "Little Lovers", published in 1912: Check out the Tuck DB site, if you are looking for cards published…

Three Lovely Ladies 1911

I am truly blessed with so many wonderful girls in my life! Just the other day my doorbell rang, and outside stood a surprise visit. My ex-steph daughter (now 21), we have agreed to call her my bonus-daughter 😀 So in addition to my two little ones, I also have her, all grown and gorgeous.…

Affectionate Greeting 1908

Look at this gorgeous vintage postcard, of the cutest cherub dressed in pink, presenting a cornucopia with hearts! This card is especially dear to me, and the original is sitting in a frame on a small table in my living room. I treasure it dearly, as it reminds me of all things great, and I…

Homemade :: Basic Paint and Glue

When using all sorts of printed ephemera for craft projects, I always run into the need for vast amounts of basic paint and glue. And being a single mom, I'm always on a tight budget. So I have tested some of the homemade recipes available, and compiled my faves in a printable pdf.  Click on…

Boy And Girl Cherubs

I hope to be able to use this blog to share some of my vintage postcards, for you to use in your artwork. I am completely smitten with the Victorian and Edwardian eras, and my collection is dedicated to ephemera from that period. My main theme is cupids and cherubs, so there is a lot…
