Aimee requested the Airship that you see above. Isn’t it fun!!!
Amy was wishing for some Corgis or a Fox. Since I’m a Corgi lover too, I’m always searching for Corgi images, but so far I have not been very successful. Hopeful this Fox from an old German book will do for now!
Jennifer was hoping to find some Vintage Chicks or Chickens. Here is a lovely Rooster and a Hen, from an old Farm Magazine.
Kathy wanted a higher res rescan of this popular insect. I will let you decide if it is a Moth or a Butterfly. We had quite a debate over this last time I posted it! I admit it looks like a Moth that has had a little extra color added to it, however the back of the piece claims it is a Butterfly. And that’s all I’m sayin…
Theresa was “praying” that I would have a Rosary. (Sorry I couldn’t resist that one!). Anyway I really didn’t think I would be able to come up with one, but it turned out that I had one after all. So here you go Theresa!
June was in search of some Herbs. And thankfully Kathy came to the rescue with this charming Catnip seed packet! Thanks Kathy!
And lastly Line put in a request at the last minute, for a vintage Dragonfly. This one comes from a very old Natural History book.
Well, that’s all for this week. Do you have a request for an image? If so please leave it here in the comments section of my Request Day post, and then check back on Thursday to see if I found your requested image (Sorry but I can’t fill every request, I usually pick a few each week). Each week I go back and check under my Thursday posts to find what your looking for, it’s so much easier for me that way. I’m afraid I’m a very disorganized Fairy, so please, please please Do Not email requests to me, I most likely will loose it if you do. So sorry but I’m a complete mess when it comes to email! I’m afraid they’re just aren’t enough hours in the day to answer them all, and then I feel horribly guilty.
P.S. Don’t forget to use the search box here on my blog, you might find that the image you want is already here!

I’m fairly new to your blog and just love the graphics you provide. I tried to do a search, but for some reason this function wouldn’t work.
DO you have any vintage lace maker graphics or tatters or spinners?
TIA

Hi Liz,
I’m so glad you like my blog! You are right about the search, I just tested it out and it must be down today. I will tell you a secret though, there is a second invisible search box. If you go to the top of my blog and hover your mouse over the top left corner, the Blogger navigation bar will appear, and you can type a search in the white box and then hit enter afterwards. I don’t believe I have any lace maker or tatting images on my blog currently, I will keep my eye out for them though!

Thanks for the goodies every day! I love your blog! The bug BTW is a moth and we have them in our yard. Beautiful (as big as half of my hand) moth!
Kaysie says
Do you have an old cowboy and cowgirl graphic. I have not been able to find one in your collection. Thanks!
Terri Kahrs says
Fantastic!!! Hugs, Terri xoxo
Alden says
How about any pinecones??
Karen- The Graphics Fairy says
I’m so glad you all are pleased with these!
Aimee, you’ve got me curious now! I would love to see what you come up with!
Kaysie, I have several Cowgirls on here. You can find them here http://graphicsfairy.blogspot.com/search?q=cowgirl I do have a Cowboy that I just got in, but he’s a line drawing and doesn’t really match any of the Cowgirls. I’m thinking you are looking for a coordinating set, is that right?
Kathy-Catnip Studio says
Thank you so much for the higher res moth/butterfly. I’ve used it before and I just love it. You’ve found some wonderful images to go along with it.
Tania says
Karen, these are all just so great! I have been looking for a airship image for some time now – can’t wait to use it!Thanks
Limar says
Lovely graphics, thank you so much 🙂
Lisa B says
I only recently ‘found’ your blog and it’s wonderful. the airship is a dream – thanks 🙂
Char says
I LOVE your blog! Your collection of images is stunning!
I dare make a request: do you have any images of honey bees, hives, or the like?
Thank you for considering my request,
Char

Hi Karen – I’m looking for a vintage sheet music cover for opera. I have seen the Yetiva Opera one you have, but I’m looking for more of a “love” theme to use on favor boxes for a bridal shower (the bride loves opera). Thanks!
Crystal says
It’s a moth . . . 🙂
oh, and thanks for the wonderful images – your blog is the BEST!
Carla says
WOW!! Thanks for sharing!
Amy says
Karen, great images! I was wondering if you had any golf images. They are so into golf around here! Thanks!
Susan says
Love your blog! To add to the moth/butterfly controversy, I’ll say it’s definitely a Cecropia moth with some creative license. The coloring isn’t too far off except for the green edging, and the rusty-colored parts of the body can actually be a bright reddish-orange. This illustraion’s lower wings have a swallowtail butterfly edging that doesn’t occur in any Cecropia I’ve ever seen. {As a child I wanted to be an entomologist} Thanks for the wonderful images!
Karen- The Graphics Fairy says
Thanks for the info Susan!
LissC says
fantastic moth? butterfly? i don’t know either. Either way its great! LOL.
linnie-818 says
Wonderful collection. I love to see what people request and what you find for them. You are so generous. Thanks so much for sharing!
Amy says
Thank you for the wonderful fox (and for everything, I love the airship and dragonfly, too).
Ann Mackay says
Thank you for the catnip – just what I need for a cat collage! Love this blog and your generosity!
Ann 🙂
Line says
Thank you so much! That was the perfect present for my birthday (yes, June 17th! even if there are a few hours difference since I live in France).
Have a lovely day!
ella says
Hi Karen,
I’m a big fan of your gorgeous blog! Do you have any pictures of bears? (real ones, not the teddy sort 😀 )
Lots of love and thanks,
Ella
Jess says
Hi Karen! I can’t tell you how much I look forward to each new post… I’m always excited to see what gorgeous vintage imagery you’ve rustled up next! I was wondering if you have any images of pumpkins you might share? They’d be perfect for Halloween. 🙂 Thank you!!!
noella says
woow what an inspiring and resourceful blog you have here.. so lovely! Do you have any vintage teacups or teapots or tea-related images?
Karen- The Graphics Fairy says
Hi Noella,
Yes, I have all of those images! Just do a search for them on my blog and they should pop up!
taimdala says
Hello, just subscribed. You are the arts source I’ve been waiting years for! Thank you for your site. ^_^
If you love Corgis, have you seen Tasha Tudor’s children’s books with Corgis? _Tasha Tudor’s Corgiville_ is one of the titles, I think. I do hope this helps you in your quest for more Corgi images. ^_^
bj says
Hi, Karen..I thank you for letting me use your pretty graphics. I have a blog called Sweet Nothings and would love a black and white of a man whispering sweet nothings into his sweetheart’s ear…:) Do you have anything like that?
