Walter Crane Flower Ladies Free antique book illustrations.

Hi everyone! So glad you have come for a visit. Today I have some winsome flowery pictures by Walter Crane. The first with soft pink and white May flowers. Lovely ladies and flowers for making greeting cards, decorations for scrapbooks or incorporating into junk journals and collage. Something to brighten our world and lift our spirits. 
Let me know if there’s anything specific that you are looking for and I will see if I can find graphics for it. I also love your comments. Sending all the love I can to everyone out there and hope you can make something beautiful today.

Victorian Artists Walter & Thomas Crane ~ Greeting Cards ~ Free Digital Printies

Good morning and welcome!  A few years ago I came across the British artist Walter Crane. I was looking at antique children's books which led me to this prolific and popular artist. His father and brother were also artists. Today I have a few greeting cards for you that were done by his brother Thomas. There are two more cards in the set. I tend to get a tad obsessive about completing sets or matching things. Needless to say I will be on the look out for the other two in color.  I am posting the black and white ones as a reference. You never know what I can find on a museum or library website. So glad I found the Metropolitan Museum of Art online resources. I have been spending many happy hours going over their ephemera and artwork collections. So many interesting works of art and artists.

So glad you found or are returning to Bumble Button. Thank you for the kind comments. Sending love to all of you, Louise

Two pictures are just not enough! A few more pretty graphics.

The wonderful art of Walter Crane from children's book's of the 1800's,

Digging in my treasure chest of images was so fun today. I always forget what gems there are. Thank you to all the artist who created them over 100 years ago. Now they will adorn scrap books collage and artist trading cards of today. Decoupaged glued and framed the creativity continues.
My dilemma for every post. What is the theme? I have 2 that I want to do so this is featuring the art work of Walter Crane. Then it will be the fairy. Lots of pixies faeries or and elves fairies.
Some of the wonderful pictures that I am attributing to Mr. Crane may have been done by others. They have the same feel so all are included here.
 I am attracted to the colors,  in vogue and popular today.
Create beautiful things today!
Louise
