Free Vintage Farmhouse Journal Bits and Labels

vintage farmhouse labels

Hello, I hope you are all doing fine mid-week and are looking forward to a great weekend.  As you can see, today’s freebie ( a set of farm tags and vintage labels)  is made with  vintage farm ephemera and a chicken theme and my favorite, red, cream and black color scheme.

I really had a lot of fun  designing these tags even though finding and collecting the vintage images was a a challenge.  

Design Inspiration

The background was a great find on the interwebs,  where I found a vintage farm almanac page from the turn of the century, including vintage poultry ads.  I love the color red for these type of labels, I guess it might be influenced by the red embroidery work I used to watch my Mom make for kitchen towels.  According to Wikipedia, here’s a fun fact!  “Redwork is a form of American embroidery, also called art needlework, that developed in the 19th century and was particularly popular between 1855 and 1925.  It traditionally used red thread, chosen because red dyes were the first commercially available colorfast dyes, in the form of  Turkey red embroidery floss.” 

As for the details about the freebie, there are 28 elements in all.  The tags measure approximately 2 1/2″ x 3 1/2″   and the  red gingham labels are approximately 2.5″ x 1″.  I used an actual  vintage paper label  for the red gingham  labels.

Although these tags were made specifically as journal bits, as always, they can either be used for journaling in your project life projects, smashbooks, art journals or other types of memory keeping.

They can also be used in your kitchen/ household labeling.

 

Facts about the farmhouse freebie:

  • This free printable has 28 elements on two  5 1/2″ by 8.5″ jpeg files. (Half US letter)
  • The file size is 3.4 MB. Second pdf file is 2.2MB.
  • These elements were created at 300 dpi, so your printing results should be very clear and sharp. (The preview pictures on the blog and at Google are at 72 dpi, the actual download’s color is actually much smoother and softer.)
  • Printing tip:   I would advise that you print on heavy white cardstock, plain or matte to use as die cuts or white sticker paper to use the labels as stickers.
  • Color theme: red, cream, black

Thank you for all your Pinterest and other social media pins…

I’d like to say thanks to all those taking the time to comment, I sure appreciate the gracious “thank yous” and the legitimate “link love” , you guys made October my biggest web traffic month yet, hopefully, it can be repeated in November.   I know you don’t always have time to leave a comment because you are busy, so I really appreciate it when blog visitors take the time to either like or comment.

Thank you for your single pins and for some of you,  multiple pins of my various designs on Pinterest as well as Facebook links.  I also appreciate mentions in your blogs with appropriate link backs and active links.

As usual these freebies are free for personal use, (check my TOU if you haven’t previously.)  If you have been here before, you know the drill.  All this extra content might be a little tiresome (sorry, but I want newcomers to get a hang of what needs to be done to access their freebie!).

If not, you might want to read the quick  TOU below before you access the printable.

Country Shabby Rose Tags – Free Printable

This post may contain affiliate links. I may receive a commission, at no cost to you, when you choose to use the links provided. See the Disclosure Policy for more information.

Well, it’s that time again…time for a new freebie and hopefully you will find this one to your liking.  I’d like to  welcome all my new blog followers (and blog visitors) and  thank you for your  permission to send you an email of all this blog’s goodies.

Yes, I am back to a shabby chic color scheme and hopefully, this time with a new variation.  I’d also like to add that I am getting the knack of designing digital paper (the rose pattern paper was designed by me) using a variety of commercial use elements.  So, that’s a new skill that I am slowly acquiring that is resulting in a lot more unique digital paper designs, at least that can be attributed to me.

A Few Words About this Freebie’s Inspiration…

This story may sound familiar, but as I have mentioned in several of my posts that I will visit your “pins” and your boards (when I can carve out the time), and I am usually glad that I do because I often get to see loads of great “pins” that just inspire me to improve my skills and find inspiration for more creative ideas.

Well, in a previous search on Flickr and Pinterest, I found a picture/flyer image of farms in the early 1900s and I just loved it.  I have been trying to find free vintage farm ephemera and the search has been difficult, even paid digital farm ephemera is difficult to find (at least those available for commercial use), but I did find a few images to include in this  freebie “idea” that I have been working on for a few months now,  ever since I had  last posted my chicken graphic.

So, to make a long story short, that inspired me to create these  shabby rose tags that hopefully reflect shabby chic with a vintage country theme. Tags that will be suitable  for journaling, digital scrapbooking, gift tags,  hybrid scrapbooking and other uses.    If you can spare the time, please leave me a comment if you like the vintage  “farm ephemera” look, your feedback is appreciated.

Freebie Printable Details:

  • 16  elements on an 8 1/2″ by 11″ pdf file.
  • File size = 1.08 MB
  • The mason jar tags measure approximately 2 1/4″ x 3 7/8″,  the labels approximately 2 3/4″ x 2″ and the other tags are slightly smaller at 1 1/4″ x 2″.  The milk can label measures approximately 2 3/4″ x 1 1/2″.
  • Color scheme: light blue, slate blue, dusty rose pink, light green, and light pink
  • Designed at 300 dpi. Preview pictures are saved at 72 dpi, so you are not seeing the clarity of the actual print-out.  Printing results should be very clear and sharp.
  • As always, they can either be used for journaling in your project life projects, smashbooks, art journals or other types of memory keeping.
