My husband and I purchased a vintage poster in a shop in Maui about 4 years ago. Before kiddos, this room was the pool room and this was the only artwork in the room. 
Well now that it has transformed into a playroom, I wanted the playroom artwork to match...so I painted 2 pieces on canvas. Here is the vintage poster:
Here is one of two - Reach For The Stars, Dreams Come True
Here is the second - Let Your Heart Soar, Enjoy the Journey
Here is a shot of the Playroom Wall

I wanted black backgrounds so all the artwork had the same "feel". I color matched the fonts at the bottom of the vintage poster and tried to match the style of fonts as best I could.I linked to up to Funky Junk Interiors Saturday Nite Special Linky Party!

I suppose a wine poster isn't totally appropriate for a childrens playroom. :)
The two pieces you did are AMAZING!!!! I love how you used the poster as inspiration for your colors. Well done!!!
