To say that I love the style of the Pictorial Websters is an understatement. My whole design career is in fact heavily influenced by these intricate engravings and I own volumes upon volumes of ephemera with these lovelies in them. Above is the start of my 'Cabinet of Curiosities' series. I had them printed as giclee's on this amazing stock, scrumptious (for all those paper lovers out there). I did a Jack-a-lope, a pig with wings and had many more in mind. They bombed in my shop but I still believe that one day someone will appreciate my efforts. for now I am using the ol' dodo to announce the winner of the giveaway. I used the random generator but I do think it's funny that she mentioned moi in her comments as a crafty blog she likes. I pinky promise that it had nada to do with choosing Miss Whitney and it was all chance. Congrats to you Whitney, may you be duly inspired! If you are feeling left out of a prize hop over to The Bright Side Project, there's an AWESOME prize to be had today!
For the record I LOVED all the responses and if I had 30 more dictionaries to give away I surely would. I am so happy to have found so many new ways to procrastinate!
