This image is from an ad in an 1880’s magazine. The ad was for a crochet thread and featured this really cute Doily looking Rose! I’ve included the original black and white version at the bottom. This one makes a great Photoshop Brush. After making it into a brush, I made the pink and blue versions that you see here. So pretty!!

July 16, 2010 at 11:12 amHi Karen
My new blog is up and running now. Hope to start a new post on the Cabinet of Curiosities shortly – it’s just getting its final coats of lacquer at the moment, & I’ve managed to locate some tiny drawer handles! My blog is http://yale-design.blogspot.com/ and I’ve put a brag Monday link on it. Just pondering my next project.

July 16, 2010 at 1:30 pmKaren, Thank you so much for all your wonderful gifts. Could you tell me how to convert the black and white pictures into PNG files, with transparent backgrounds, in Photo Shop Elements? I would love to use these in digita scrapbooking.
Thank you so much.

July 22, 2010 at 7:09 amVery cool looking. I’m not sure if I like the B&W or the re-colored versions the most. I need to go figure out how to make a brush from an image. Is it hard? Guess I will find out! Thanks for the inspiration (and the images, of course)!
