Hello peeps, I hope you are all doing fine as we get ready for the upcoming start of the spring season and are looking forward to a great week! As you can see, today’s freebie ( a set of vintage St. Patrick’s Day printables ) was created on Adobe Photoshop as labels, vintage mini banners and circles for your bottlecap diy crafting. I have been designing these images for the bottle cap charms I am now creating for junk journals that I am currently working on. I used vintage St. Patrick’s Day postcards for the circles.
I really had a lot of fun designing these elements even though getting the authentic feel and worn look for these vintage images is a challenge. Thanks for hanging in there with me, I did get a slow start in publishing for this New Year due to a lot of natural disasters happening in the So Cal area and their impact on our local economy. Hopefully, things are stabilizing as we progress through the year.
Popular Graphic Sites
I really appreciate all of you who have visited this blog and also checked out Creative Fabrica and Rawpixel and signed up for their design graphics and vintage freebies! Your generous support helps me with providing additional freebies.
Creative Fabrica is coming out with new tools all the time, and the latest is their Font Generator as they develop their studio design features. I have taken advantage of this and created several new fonts. I have included one in the mini banners I created for you today! I will be discussing this in future posts, as I get ahead of new design opportunities coming my way and I share them with you!
In addition, another one of my favorite design sites, Rawpixel, this site has a great assortment of public domain vintage images! Create a free account using my link, if you so choose.
And for a slew of great vintage and whimsical fonts and lots of crafting svgs, don’t forget to try Creative Fabrica. I have a subscription and use a lot of their graphic resources for my designs.
Design Inspiration
I developed the inspiration for these printables because I have been looking on Etsy for these vintage items and they are hard to come by in a variety of colors.
As for the details about the freebie, there are three sets in all. The elements are all designed on half US letter pages as jpeg files. These are approximate measurements for these elements.
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.
Facts about the vintage Saint Patrick’s Day freebie:
- There are three free printables; three Half US letter jpeg files
- 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: green, ivory, black
