I may not love to cook, but I do love this
domestically sweet image of a woman making custard.
It was from a 1910 advertisement for Kingsford’s Corn Starch
sent to me by Audrey @ Timeless Treasures.
I liked it so well, I decided to create some recipe cards
and a flour sack towel with the image.
The background for the recipe cards is from an antique ledger page.
I’ve removed all the background from the image,
so it can be layered over other images,
using programs like Photoshop or Gimp.If you don’t know how to use those programs,
the image will have a white square as the background
in programs like Word or Paint. Just trim that off if
you will be printing the image as a transfer.

Here’s the image in reverse for transfer projects, like the flour sack towel.
I love how it looks on the towel.
I made a few variations of the recipe cards that
you can save and print. I just used Word to paste
the images of the cards and print them, fitting 2 or 3 on the
page, depending on how large you size the card.
You are welcome to print these cards or the image for yourself or
as gifts, but please don’t resell the cards or the images…they are copyright protected. :0)

Angie you’re a genius! I’ve used Gimp but it’s been a LONG time — will have to find time to go back and play with it some more — love the towel!! Thanks for sharing the images!
Those are great! Thanks for sharing!
Love the cards and the towel. Had to laugh, though, because I don’t love to cook, either, but I love a good recipe card. Thanks for sharing your wonderful creation.
Can I follow your blog by having the new posts sent to me via email ? I can’t find a way to do this on your blog. Would appreciate it if you can let me know.
