Jaguar Standing in a Sandy Landscape

A Jaguar stands alone looking out over the landscape.

The layout of "spots" on each Jaguar is unique and can be used for identification; just like our fingerprints.

I have included a closer view of the Big Cat below.

 You don't even have to be a cat person to like this poster!
This is printed on a Tan Cream background so it will print well on cream or eggshell colored papers.

This picture has nice soft Blue colors and background.
It is a nice image for Ephemera and Cards because the image can still be seen clearly when printed in those sizes.

This would be nice printed on brown paper.
You could remove the frame and fade the edges out to blend it into the brown colors of your paper.

Border Edge

Border

 

 This Border has large interesting flowers with cutwork inside their frames.
The items inside could be replaced with blank space to provide room for writing or other images.

The butterfly like motif in the middle is also something that can be used apart from the full design.

Map of England and Wales

Map of England and Wales

During the late 18th century Britannia was a popular subject in England.
She was in many English crafts where images were used.
Britannia is seen embroidered here in satin on the top right.
I included a close up of this (below) so you can see the details.
Use the Map or just the Frame or Flowers.
