These are gorgeous! I snagged #s 1, 14, 16, and 19, and will credit when used. Thanks! =)

[olde-fashioned.livejournal.com]

Thank you very much!

[missalee.livejournal.com]

Very, very nice. I took #23. Thanks for sharing!

[olde-fashioned.livejournal.com]

Thank you for the comment!

[olde-fashioned.livejournal.com]

Ack! I haven't seen it yet, so I'm not trying to endorse anything I haven't seen. These were for icontests, which means the theme was predetermined and not influenced by me. ;-) I'll rent BJ when it comes out on Netflix, but even if I do end up hating it, the costumes sure are pretty. ;-P

[elvenjaneite.livejournal.com]

Nice job Lauren!

[olde-fashioned.livejournal.com]

Thank you, Maureen!

I simply must say, I love your icon, the colors especially. Rossetti?

[un-titled-love.livejournal.com]

These are fantastic. I'm taking number 5, and I will definitely credit you! ♥

[olde-fashioned.livejournal.com]

Thank you for the comment!

[girl-undone.livejournal.com]

I took 21, but I love all of them. :) I'll credit when I use it.

[olde-fashioned.livejournal.com]

Thank you!

[iane-grey.livejournal.com]

!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm like Macduff. NO WORDS.

[olde-fashioned.livejournal.com]

:-D LOL!! I was wondering what you'd think of the Vermeer. ;-P I've been absolutely dying to show them to you, but that's against the contest rules until the voting's over! ;-P Vermeer is so much fun!

[anli.livejournal.com]

these are so beautiful!

[olde-fashioned.livejournal.com]

Thank you!

[nehelenia78.livejournal.com]

Great work, dear! I snagged 3, 14 and 21!

[olde-fashioned.livejournal.com]

Thank you very much! (and may I say, I've always enjoyed your website) :-)

[gentle-dream.livejournal.com]

Being Dutch myself, I loved 1 and 3 so I took them, thank you!

[olde-fashioned.livejournal.com]

Are you really! I have a bit of Dutch blood in me as well. ;-) Maybe that's why I've always liked Vermeer so much? lol.

[psychie.livejournal.com]

These are smashing! Especially the Regency and Tudor ones!!

Did you watch Becoming Jane then? :D

[olde-fashioned.livejournal.com]

Thank you very much!! :-D

No, actually, I have yet to see it. These were for a contest, so I didn't choose the theme. ;-) I'll Netflix BJ when it comes out.

[dameboudicca.livejournal.com]

I loved them all but just took number 21 - and will of course credit!
(okey, why just take one? i'll grab 18 too!)

[olde-fashioned.livejournal.com]

Thank you very much!

[sbuchler.livejournal.com]

Fun! As green is a great and glorious color, I had to take #019 and #020 :-) For use when I get around to making my green regency dress ;-)

[olde-fashioned.livejournal.com]

Thank you. Green is my favourite color! And hoorah for green Regency dresses. :-)

[vivonelcarmelo.livejournal.com]

Your icon is very funny btw!

[lady-eliz.livejournal.com]

Thank you very much!

[okk-t-gain.livejournal.com]

I *love* #23, and I haven't even seen Becoming Jane. It's just a lovely, calming icon.

*snags*
:P

[olde-fashioned.livejournal.com]

Thank you very much!

[littleflower518.livejournal.com]

Love 14 and 15!!! Snagged those two.
Oh and by the way, I'm seeing your new layout for the first time and may I just say that I LOVE, LOVE, LOOOOOOOOOVE it!!!
(I've been very busy as a working woman...UGH!!)

[olde-fashioned.livejournal.com]

Thank you, Lindy! And I'm glad you like the layout! :-D

(Have you? Is it terribly bad?)

[mooie-ogen.livejournal.com]

I love Johannes Vermeer!!! I could stare at Het Meisje met de Parel (girl with a pearl earring ;)) for hours! really, it's magical, you just stand there and you feel you can't withdraw your eyes from it!
btw, stunning new header! I loved the old one too, I know the Sound of Music by heart =)
Icon 19 is especially great...so is 16 =P

[olde-fashioned.livejournal.com]

Me too! I've liked his art before I really knew who he was.

Thank you very much! :-)

[sabrinafair2.livejournal.com]

Love the icons. BTW how did you like "Becoming Jane"?

[olde-fashioned.livejournal.com]

Thanks! I haven't seen it yet -- these were for icontests, and I didn't choose the theme. ;-)

[mrsmosley.livejournal.com]

I love them all (esp. the Vermeer and the Elizabeth icons) and I can't decide, so I'm just memorizing the whole post! Thank you for the beautiful work.

[olde-fashioned.livejournal.com]

Thank you for the compliments! :-)

Hello!!

[bonnie-lass-luv.livejournal.com]

Re: Hello!!

[olde-fashioned.livejournal.com]

Thank you very much for your kind words! As for MySpace, I am not currently taking any requests, but you are more than welcome to use my work on your MySpace, with proper credit of course. ;-) I'm sorry for any inconvenience this may cause you, but I have precious little spare time as of late. I hope you will understand.

Thanks for the comment!

[yeshua-myprince.livejournal.com]

Have you seen Becoming Jane?
Your thoughts? :)

[olde-fashioned.livejournal.com]

No, I haven't. I will Netflix it when it's released, though...

[oldfashioned84.livejournal.com]

Absolutely beautiful as usual!

[olde-fashioned.livejournal.com]

Thank you, Jen! :-)
