Thank You Scrolls

My Shire asked me to do the teacher thank you notes for our event in June of 2008. I had only been doing C&I for a few months at this point. These are really some of my first efforts. Here they are:


The idea for this scroll came from the Rencentral website. It is a great site and I have learned a ton from it.

The lady on the left is copied from a 14th century Austrian manuscript.

This is another manuscript that came from instructions from the Rencentral site.

This is based on French 15th century manuscripts. The boat miniature comes from a 17th century manuscript.

This scroll is based on the Psalter of Saint Louis from 1260 Paris. I can’t find a good color I like for the orangey-red.  This is way too brown for my taste.

Some French bars and ivey with a miniature form a 14th century manuscript.

This  border was a pre-print I got at Gulf Wars.  The people at Gulf Wars  told me that it was a Meridian scroll, but no one in Meridies that I’ve  talked to has ever seen it.  I painted it and added the calligraphy and  the Shire arms at the bottom.
