    Figtree3 What would you do if you weren't afraid?

    Looking for a good home for this cute picture (pretty sure it's a lithograph). It's printed on a card stock. Dimensions are 7 inches by almost 9 inches. It was in a nasty frame that was falling apart. That is long gone, but I still have the picture and don't think I'll do anything with it.

    The card it's on is highly acidic, and the back of the card is very brown. There is a thin liquid stain along the bottom.

    If more than one person expresses interest, I'll draw names. Let me know! Oh, and I'll pay postage on this one.

    I was playing around with the colors and textures in this - it's not a finished product but this is what I came up with:

    I love this! And I just took a quick look at your site. May I ask, are you printing these on papers, fabrics, etc.? Or are you selling the patterns themselves and leaving it to the buyers to print them?

    I'll wait at least a few days on the picture, to see if anybody else wants their name in the hat.

    Thanks! The way Spoonflower works is we post our designs and people can order them on fabric (about 10 different ones from cotton to silk), matte or glossy gift wrap, and wallpaper.

    Some members just order other people's designs, some just print their own for their own use, and most post at least some of their designs for others to buy. I started on it just to be able to get my designs printed on fabric for me to use, but have posted some of my designs for sale as well. If you buy your own designs, you get a discount - if other people buy them you get a percentage in "spoonflower dollars" to spend on the site or convert to cash.

    Their printing methods are more environmentally friendly than most. When I first started using them I was a bit disappointed with some of the colors - they don't print on cloth as vibrant as they are on screen because they aren't backlit on fabric, but they have gotten worlds better lately. If you work up a design or see one from someone else you want to buy, it's a good idea to get a swatch first. There's no charge to join or to post your designs.

    That picture is so cute, Fig, I tempted. But I'm sure that I've got lots of prints that I could give away! Good luck to the rest!

    I think I'll wait until this Saturday, Nov. 1 and will then select a name. So far there are two: elarnia and spirit-of-shiloh.
