Happy Halloween! Hello… and I hope you are ready for today’s journaling cards freebie! I am doubling the freebies today as a special treat to you and why not double the fun? The first freebie is a kid-friendly Halloween journaling cards and elements set.

It uses traditional Halloween colors but in a cute, whimsical theme. They’re meant to write down the stories of all the fun the kiddies had at school or at other activities; however, of course, they can be used for what your creative imagination will come up with…a mini-smashbook perhaps?

As for the details about the freebie, there are 12 journaling elements in all. You have four journaling cards (3″ x 4″), and other celebration themed elements. 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 Journaling Cards freebie:

This free printable has 12 elements on an 8 1/2″ by 11″ pdf file.
The file size is 2.57 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 distorted.
Color scheme: orange, green, purple, black

Hello and hope you had a great weekend! Well, as stated in a previous post, I am working on a lot of changes to this blog and re-categorizing all my freebies into categories where hopefully, you can find what you like a whole lot easier.

As for today’s freebie, I am still on the same design trend and that is to come up with autumn themed journaling cards and elements, especially for today which seems to be working out as project life Tuesday.

I have a whole list of ideas (yes, a literal idea list), but sometimes I just get inspired to do something else…this was one of those times.

When it comes to the fall, I really love pumpkin pie but a close second is apple pies or apple tarts. Yummy! So, I thought that today’s freebie printable might represent a little bit of a school theme with the idea of apple orchards.

I added a lot of photo-realistic textures to this one, so I hope you like it and I also designed some of the background papers. You might have to get out your trusty craft knife (besides your scissors) to get to all the little details, especially on the elements.

Facts About the Journaling Cards Freebie

As for the details about the freebie, there are 20 elements in all. You have four journaling cards (3″ x 4″), one note tag and several journaling elements as well.

You guys are constantly coming up with uses I had never imagined, which to me shows the power of creativity. Viva la difference!

What A Hoot Journaling Elements – 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.

Hello and hope you had a great weekend. Well, I am still on the same design trend and that is to come up with autumn themed elements that you might be able to add to your digital or hybrid scrapbooking collection.

As it has been for the past week, it was the lovely fall colors all around that inspired the color scheme for today’s freebie, it was a challenge coming up with something that might be cute (that’s the reason for the owls designed by another talented designer) and yet represent a color scheme consistent with autumn colors. With this set you will have at least three printable that coordinate with each other. I hope you like them and can find a creative use for them.

As for the details about the freebie, there are 17 elements in all. You have four journaling cards (3″ x 4″), one note tag and several elements as well. Feathers (or copies of feathers seems to be a current trend so I included a few of those as well. As always, they can either be used for journaling in your project life projects, smashbooks, art journals or other types of memory keeping.

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 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 Cameo or Silhouette Portrait 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 to get a clean cut and handle the fussy cutting.

Facts about the freebie:

This free printable has 17 elements on an 8 1/2″ by 11″ pdf file.
The file size is 9.32 MB.
These elements were created at 300 dpi, so your printing results should be very clear and sharp. I included a photo-realistic paper texture in the journaling cards and word snippets.
Color scheme: brown, rust, cream/tan, dark teal blue
