a happy bookplate...

Adding another bookplate to my collection. Feel free to copy and use in your vintage treasures or new classics:)

To copy: click on the image - it will open up in its own window at a high resolution (300dpi-true size). Copy that to your desktop and enjoy:) You could make them smaller if you'd like.

Cool, thank you! I thought I was the only one who cared about bookplates anymore.... I keep saying that they're going to make a come-back, big time, someday..... ;) (I make individual custom bookplates all the time. It's one of my fave crafty-time projects).

Hi Helen! I love LOVE this bookplate illustration! I'm wondering if you would be willing to make a version where the girl has blonde hair? My daughter Claire's favourite toy is an orange cat and she carries it everywhere with her. I want to print a bunch of these to label all of her books and it would be so cute to have a girl with blonde hair to match.
Please let me know if you're interested. Thanks so much!
Sarah

This will not work as a matter of fact, that's what I consider.

Do you have a boy version? I love this!

Mikki Lee said...

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE! I love this bookplate. Make a boy version too! :) Maybe a boy with a doggy rather than the kitty!
