So, I am playing with some heraldry uses in Cafe Press now that I have this great digital artwork by Ljubodrag. Here are some things I did for myself and I’m doing for the Beckers…. playing around, but it’s a hoot!

those are nice! I love the way the keychain looks. it fills the space nicely.
You can upload your image and size it quite nicely.. You should give it a go!
Well,
The Beckers and McClurgs now have a pretty extensive storefront. I’ve let them know I’ll put together any appropriate item. Feel free to tool around in there - please remember I did buy the copy rights from Ljubodrag for the artwork he did for me… Generally, if you make yourself a storefront, you can buy what you build for "base price" which is already pricey..

What a great way to spend a rainy cold Sunday!
Identification is what heraldry is all about. Some interesting stuff there Kathy.
I am always so jealous of the detailed digital images everyone seems to have.
How can I get some made??
I notice that Mark and Kathy both use the same motto: "Aut Viam Inveniam Aut Faciam" - ‘tis a small world…

There no magic to it, Mark. I presume that Kathy contacted a heraldic artist and commissioned a work. I think that Kathy used Ljubodrag Grujic (from Serbia):
Email sent, will see how busy the artist is these days..
Just a thought – but the 10×3 “car magnet” might make for an excellent format on which to display the image of a standard, guidon, or pennon.
There are quite a few digital artists that are quite good. Ljubodrag is quite well known. Terry Sarros has a web site and FB page.

Both of them do all their work by hand - no clip art.
I know there are others here and elsewhere - And if you have a good line drawing, This site may be able also to help:
There are others around - whatever boards you are on re: heraldry, ask folks to PM you and you’ll find an artist that suits!
Good luck!

I agree. They have some stickers and one other size of car magnet as well. You can also do a banner there, but it wouldn’t be a proper banner, methinks.

Kindred Spirits - possibly both… persistent, yeah, that’s a nice way to say it!
OK - Just one more… I think - I massacred Ljubodrag’s artwork, but found a really interesting way to get the family to learn a little Blazon-eese

I am pleased and will now quit bothering you folks with my cafe press adventure…
Lol, the blazoneese makes a great fashion statement!
I’m glad you shared the cafe press links Kathy. :D
