Hello…blog followers and visitors! Today I am releasing what I think is a yummy color combination of pink and brown journaling cards and elements for project life or other types of pocket scrapbooking. These were a lot of fun to design ( I think I was thinking of chocolate as I was designing) and they have a little feminine flair with the doily and heart.
Well, on to the freebie, there are 14 journaling elements in all. You have 4 journaling cards (3″ x 4″) and a few more labels, tags and word snippets. As always, these journaling cards and elements can either be used for journaling in your project life projects, smashbooks, art journals or other types of memory keeping and papercrafting. Many of you Filofax fans have found new uses for these elements as well and you are just as welcome to use them.
Facts about the freebie:
- 16 journaling elements on an 8 1/2″ by 11″ pdf file.
- File size – less than 1 MB
- These elements were created at 300 dpi, so your printing results should be very clear and sharp with a smooth lay down of the ink color. The preview pictures both on the blog and on Google are at 72 dpi, so you often can not see all the detail accurately or colors are often distorted.
- Color scheme: pink, brown, black
How to Use this “Journaling Cards” Printable:
There are a few ways you can use this printable to create your journaling cards and elements and I have included a few tips in the following instructions:
- The easiest way to use this printable is to print it out on a full sheet of white cardstock and if you own a Silhouette Portrait or a Silhouette Cameo or other digital cutter you can cut out the journaling cards and journaling elements using their designer software. ( **Please note: You must have the Silhouette Designer Edition software upgrade to open pdfs in your Silhouette.) There are several pdf to jpg converters online if your software just can’t open a pdf. You will have to spend some time creating the cutlines for the silhouette but this should make creating the cutfile and cutting it out a lot easier.
- The most labor intensive (or time consuming) way is to print out the journaling cards or journaling elements on 65 lb. white cardstock and “fussy cut” out by hand, I have spaced the elements so that you can use a pair of good craft scissors or a slide paper trimmer or gyro tool to get a clean cut and handle the fussy cutting.

Hello.. thank you for the free printables.. i have a quick question. when i print the cards seem to be a couple mm smaller then the 3×4 size.. am i doing something wrong? thank you for reading this.
Dru Cortez says
Hi…I checked the original card size of the journaling cards and they are exactly 3″ x 4″. I believe what might be happening may be with your printer selection…depending on your printer it may ask for “actual fit” or “fit to screen” they both may give you different results depending on which you choose. The pdf download are laid out on an exactly 8.5″ x 11″ page format. Hope this helps.
