I love these sweet butterfly babies and am slowly scanning the full set. These are from the book Butterfly Babies by Elizabeth Gordon. It is from 1914 and in the public domain. The author has several other charming children’s books in print, they’re well worth seeking out if you like children’s book illustrations! Here are some newer versions on Amazon, I love the old ones for the amazing paper, but the new ones are perfect for cutting up and journaling with as well :) note:
