Old Herb & Plant Names

This is done on handmade paper so some of the water colour comes through to the other side of the page which I didn't think about but it looks ok,

quick side note I've noticed a lot of my pages being saved to pinterest please don't do this as a lot of people don't even link back to me they link to their own pages, I had even saved my tumblr setting so you couldn't save my pages elsewhere but that apparently doesn't stop people, it's very disheartening as I don't make money from this and put a lot of time into writing out the pages only for someone else to get the credit, I just want to share with the witchblr community, please appreciate my wishes and don't save my posts on pinterest, I may eventually get around to making an account specifically for my grimoire pages but at the moment I do not.
