Vintage Style Coloring Pages now at Lunagirl.com

Since "adult coloring books" are all the rage now, I decided to make a download pack of some Victorian style coloring pages!

See my coloring pages here.

These are 10 digital downloadable and printable pages created from artwork by Victorian illustrator Walter Crane. They show charming scenes from nursery rhymes, fables, and fairy tales, and with all of the color removed the line drawings are perfect for coloring.

You can download them instantly after purchase, print them out and start having fun. Color them with crayons, markers, colored pencils, watercolors... or color them digitally. I never outgrew my love of coloring. It's fun and relaxing... and when I was an art therapist I found that handing clients a box of crayons really brought out that "inner child"! Don't we all need to relax and get back to simpler pleasures these days?

Paris Botanical Tags Set: Ephemera, Flowers & Fruit

Still working on Paris Botanical tags today... I made another sheet with yellow flowers and golden fruit. Very pretty! While I was at it I realized I should make a sheet of matching tags that are mostly blank and have a place to write -- to use as backs or just to complete the set. So here is the whole set so far... expect more tags in different themes because I'm having fun with these!

Vintage Bellydancers & Edwardian Divas with Far-Away Eyes: New Printable Tags to Download

I had the best time starting my new collection Bellydance & Diva tag/bookmark sheets, three of which are sampled above.  Looking through all the images for just the right ones to go together, carefully tinting the photos in soft blues and pinks and jewel tones, selecting antique wallpaper scrap patterns to make the frames and backs and then coloring them to complement the photos, adding some lovely cartes postales and effects for the tags...

The sample here are three of the several bellydancer/diva printables I created, all currently available at Lunagirl.com and also in my etsy shop.  I feel sure there will be more tag and bookmark sets after I return from vacation... and remember you can shop while I'm away!  Digital collage sheets and other downloads will continue to be delivered automatically, and I'll be checking email when I can in case anyone has questions or difficulties.  You can order CDs also, and I'll ship those as soon as shipping resumes at the end of June.

These vintage bellydancer photos are truly some of my favorite, partly because I love bellydance and also because the images are just so exotic and beautiful.  The four "diva" photos I choose for the sheet above have in common a certain daydreaming look, so I named the sheet "Far Away Eyes." And of course I ended up using some of my favorite colors:  turquoise aquamarine blue, deep magenta with a gothic pattern, and lovely antique rose pink.  Click to see more and you'll notice some purple :-)   Now I just need to do some in emerald green....

For Last-Minute Easter Projects

Don't forget, my Lunagirl digital collage sheets come to you by instant download and are perfect for those last-minute projects!  Cards, decorations, tags, you name it, just download, print and craft!  I've put a bunch of my Easter and Springtime designs together here for your convenience ... bunnies, chicks, children, decorated crosses, angels, flowers, feathers, butterflies, eggs... Have a lovely weekend.

Seeing Red at Lunagirl.com!

 

I'm not sure what came over me, but I became obsessed with red and created these three digital collage sheets on a RED theme:  Lots of women and girls  in red, red hat ladies, red birds, cherries, frames, roses, so much variety, and a whole sheet of 1x2 images.  And who doesn't love red?

Lovely, detailed art of fall apples from a Victorian botanical print,

New from Lunagirl: Download Packs

I'm trying a new item in our shops: "download packs" of about a hundred images on a certain theme, for $5 each (no shipping, of course).  Our first four are 110 Santa Images, 102 Angel Images, 100 Christmas Children Images, and 100 Halloween Images.  All are available in our etsy shop and also at Lunagirl.com.  After your purchase of the download pack, you will receive your jpg images by a download link in an email.  These are currently sent "by hand" so it's not necessarily instant delivery (like our digital collage sheets at Lunagirl.com) but we're pretty quick!

Visit our download pack page at Lunagirl.com, or our etsy shop.  The first four sets have been quite popular, so watch for more on the way!
