Freebie: Tiled Ornamental Twitter Background

Here’s a free repeating pattern that is ideal to be used as a twitter background, created from some Victorian images from some books I’ve arranged them in a way that they will tile perfectly… how convenient!

A few of you may know that I’m really in to my ornaments and swirls so you can get a bit of inspiration from this post I wrote earlier: Ornamental design inspiration – Baroque

There are 3 variations to choose from below – Right Click the image and “Save As”

The subtle stains were added using my free grunge stained paper textures.
