Happy midweek! Today, I’m providing my latest vintage ephemera journaling papers printables. Here’s another flower and also, shabby chic themed set of journaling papers that were super fun to design.
I designed these images in Photoshop CC which is an awesome photo editing program and can handle these large image files quite easily. That’s part of the reason I subscribed to the CC version as soon as I was able as well as all the brushes you can load to the software.
Note: The jpegs for these files will be rather hefty averaging at the largest 7 MB . Your printing results will vary depending on the type of printer you have. You can always take them to the nearest Office Depot or Staples (here in the US) to get higher quality printing if you are using these for a special journaling project.
Design Inspiration
I hope this freebie inspires you in your crafting, art journaling, junk journaling and/or scrapbooking time with today’s vintage freebie. I have been watching a lot of junk journaling videos on Youtube to get an idea on what types of papers might interest you and junk journalers.
I am totally enjoying designing these projects. I am always excited to develop new ideas for tags and now papers with a vintage ephemera theme for either scrapbooking, art journaling, junk journaling and other paper crafting uses.
If you are not into junk or art journaling, you can also pop these into the pockets of A5 planners or Traveler’s Notebooks if you enjoy a vintage aesthetic, as I do.
Today’s freebie has a lot of source vintage ephemera images from vintage Photoshop brushes (many that I am designing), vintage ledger script entries, vintage botanical images that I have scanned and other sources of vintage ephemera digital items, some sourced from books published in the 1800s!
I also would like to mention that Creative Fabrica (a great graphic resource site and my go to site for many graphics) has ended their July sale but they have great freebies to offer for this month.
Facts about the Vintage Ephemera Journaling Papers Freebie
As for the details about the freebie, there are 5 junk journaling pages in this blog post printables offer. You can use these elements for journaling in your traveler’s notebook projects, smashbooks, junk journals or other types of memory keeping.
This free printable has five journaling pages at 8.5″ by 11″, stay tuned for the add-on kits I will be posting in the near future. These elements were created at 300 dpi, so your printing results should be clear and sharp. They can be used in either the Silhouette Cameo or Cricut digital cutters to cut them out or you can use scissors and a slide cutter.
The materials I used were vintage ephemera scanned at a very high resolution and other high quality vintage digital resources.
**Please note, although I used public domain resources to create this design, the design is under my copyright.**
Materials Needed
*White cardstock, Southmore Linen paper or white sticker paper, depending on your final use.
*Vintage inks, such as Tim Holtz Distress Inkpads, to give the edges a worn, tinted or aged look, if that is your preference. This process takes off the white edge of the journaling cards and journaling spots, if you are using them for junk journaling and gives the paper an subtle, aged and worn look. With these inks you control the amount of tinting and color you prefer on your edges.
*Scissors or slide cutter
*Photo editing software (i.e., Photoshop Elements) for jpeg files or Silhouette or other digital cutters.
How to Use this Vintage Ephemera Journaling Papers Printable
- Print and cut out the papers and use them as pages for your junk journals, traveler’s notebooks and other planners. Watermark is removed on actual downloads.
