It seems to me that some one requested this Cherry image to be reworked without the background that it originally had. So I have redone them with a white background.
Rene requested a Lake themed image. This image is adapted from the cover of some old sheet music.
Aimee was hoping for a button. Button graphics are hard to come by for some reason. I ended up taking a photo of an antique button and then I vectorized it in Illustrator, to come up with the image that you see above.
And lastly Lorrie was wishing for some Peas in a pod. These peapods are on a cute antique label!
Lorrie, I owe you an apology I just found your email in my pile, you are very kind!
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. 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!
XXXOOO

May 7, 2010 at 5:36 amThanks for these, they’re all great!
I was looking for something a couple weeks back and didn’t find anything on your site. I would love to see something for a soda shop or ice cream shoppe, something more Victorian than 50’s – but honestly, anything would be great!
Thanks for asking!

May 7, 2010 at 4:32 pmOk the green peas thing is just too cute as well as the cherries. I also wanted to tell you thanks for all the great images. I know I’ve told you that before but you are really my go-to spot for images. I revamped my blog style today with some of your images, I just love playing with them. Hope you have a great day!

If you do a search on my site, you should find a cowboy and a couple of cowgirls.

May 9, 2010 at 5:41 amI’m trying to locate an image of an old man and young girl dancing in their night clothes(?). It is very old, in public domain but I cannot find. Do you or anyone of your readers have any ideas?
Your designs are fantastic and what a variety. I love the “green peas”.
Thanks. Kat
