What I love most about Spring flowers , aside from their vibrance, is their intense desire to live. Late frost, they don't care, they pop their heads up and test the air and then flat out surge towards their survival. Since this weekend is Daylight Savings time here in the States, I thought I would post these delightfully Spring cards! Keep your hopes up, the warm weather is closer every day....thank heavens! As an illustrator, these vintage illustrations are what illustration was in its heyday; Stylish. bold, often whimsical! And an incredible testament to the creativity of the artists, and art directors and designers of the era. I have been collecting vintage images for years, drawn by their charm, their style, versatility. For the first time this year, I have decided to share a few of them here on Etsy, wanting others to have the pleasure of enjoying them, so many forgotten, all of them unique and beautiful. There is something so simple and sincere in these greetings from decades ago...something so important now. Cards come as collections of 8 in a kraft paper box with clear top for easy storage. $24. for 8 cards. They are individually hand-printed here in my studio in Hudson, NY. They measure 4.25"x 5.5" and come with envelopes . The artists represented here: Andre E. Marty/ Pierre Brissaud/ Robert E. Lee/ Alix Zeilinger ( so much talent!!!)
