Another month has come and gone. This bring us to the end of 'April Showers' but makes way for 'May Flowers.' So, that is the hint for next month's theme. Hope you all have enjoyed these vintage illustrations, and happy crafting!! ⌚⌛⏰⏳✂✏💌📎📏📕📖🔨🔩🔑

Since I don't 'do' the typical holidays that most people do, I thought I would share a representation of the fall seasonal with a market harvest. Those who make gardens are gathering in the crops this time of year. As usual, there are three versions: bright, faded, and sepia. Along with that are a front and back book cover, worn and raggedy, that would make a great base for dark themes. Be sure and check out The Repository for more great freebies. Happy crafting!  ✒✂💌📖📚

This week I have been working on garden and seed catalog covers and pages, and I am thrilled to share a few with you. For those who liked the D.M. Ferry Seed illustration that I titled Hollyhock Girl , I found her sister, Basket Girl. Have fun with these colorful illustrations!

There is nothing quite as refreshing and visually stimulating as a bowl of fresh fruit. I have found five still lifes that have a fruit theme, and will add a classic flavor to your paper projects. Originally paintings, I have cleaned and brightened them up a bit. Have fun!!
