I’m sharing another delightful Seed Catalog reinvented into a cherub frame with ya’ll today:
This is a 1896 Burpee’s Front Cover, originally with white sweepeas in the circle. But I think the romantic cherub theme fits even better for a picture of a couple! According to my friend Grethe (Petrine’s granddaughter) this is Petrine & Bertel’s engagement photo, not their wedding photo as might be expected…
Imagine being the bride AND the photographer! She probably had to set the photos with a stand in, then get into position and have the stand in press the button… Just guessing here…lol!
You may use the Petrine Wiik Collection images too, for your personal artwork, click on my badge below to download images from the collection:
And here is a low resolution of the page ready for you to use as a frame for your own photos:
And finally a preview of the original 1896 Burpee’s seed catalog page
Find your high quality copies in the download folder, free for your personal use and enjoyment 🙂
Would you like to have this frame with YOUR personal image and text, and don’t know how to add it digitally? I’ll be adding that option to my ETSY shop shortly, so please visit:
