Hello peeps! It’s Friday and the end of the work week (well, for some folks)! Today, I’m providing the add ons for the “Pale Violet Iris” set of vintage ephemera journaling papers printables that I had hinted about in a recent post.
Your enthusiasm motivated me to come up with some new ideas and hopefully these journaling add ons are great assets to add to your paper stash! So, I designed… (1) large tags (2) large tags- set 2 and (3) a mini envelope and liner (4) journaling papers resized (5) vintage mini ephemera neutral tags. (Any watermarks are removed in the downloads.). Let me know what you think about these designs in the comments section below, if you have time. Your feedback is appreciated.
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.) Photoshop Elements is great software program to get started with photo editing and crafting as well but does have some limitations.
Your printing results will vary depending on the type of printer you have, as a general rule the higher the dpi that your printer can print, the clearer your images will be. 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.
I hope this freebie inspires you in your crafting, art journaling, junk journaling and/or scrapbooking time with today’s vintage freebie.
Time Sensitive Offer…
I also would like to mention that Creative Fabrica (a great graphic resource site and my go to site for many modern graphics and svgs) has ended their July sale but they have a whole new promotion to prepare for Halloween crafting. They are offering a host of freebies and giveaways, so if you are interested don’t forget to get in on the fun. Also, Adobe Photoshop is running a huge Back to School Sale subscription with up to 60% off for Teachers and Students. You can check the Adobe image on my sidebar to get more details. This offer will end Sept. 5, 2022.
Pale Violet Iris Journaling Add Ons Design Inspiration
I am totally enjoying designing these projects. I am always excited to develop new ideas for tags and now papers with a vintage ephemera look for either scrapbooking, art journaling, junk journaling and other paper crafting use. I am trying to provide a few of these vintage printables more frequently.
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), ledger entries script, ledger papers, vintage botanical images I have scanned and other sources of vintage ephemera digital items, some sourced from books published in the 1800s! Each design requires different Photoshop skill sets, so I enjoy the process and challenge of designing these images, tags and other shapes.
Facts about the Vintage Ephemera Journaling Add Ons Freebie
As for the details about the freebie, there are 5 journaling options in this printable. You can use these elements for journaling in your traveler’s notebook projects, smashbooks, junk journals or other types of memory keeping. This printable is for diy crafts but, of course, can be used in your journals.
This free printable has 5 journaling printables at 8.5″ by 11″ with assorted add-ons to coordinate or match with the original shabby chic rose papers I released. 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. You don’t absolutely need a digital cutter to print, cut and assemble your projects but they’re great tools!
Color theme: red violet, periwinkle, moss green, light green
The materials I used were vintage ephemera scanned at a very high resolution and other high quality vintage digital resources.

Materials Needed
*White cardstock or white sticker paper, depending on your final use. You might consider white matte photo paper as I have included photo images in the journaling cards printable. Other journaling crafters have mentioned Southworth linen/cotton paper for printing journaling papers to get that almost cloth like texture for your paper.
*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 (distresses) of the journaling cards and journaling spots, if you are using them for junk journaling and gives the paper a 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 or Photoshop ) for jpeg files or Silhouette or other digital cutters’ software.
How to Use this Pale Violet Iris Journaling Papers Printables
- Print and cut out the papers and use them as add on items for your junk journals, traveler’s notebooks and other planners. Watermark is removed on actual downloads.
