Happy Thursday!   Today, I’m providing  my latest vintage ephemera junk journaling printable.  I have noticed a lot of traffic on these blog posts and I’d like to acknowledge and appreciate the support and referral traffic.  Today, I am providing you a set using William Morris ( a famous British 19th century textile and wallpaper artist’s) wallpaper images combined with vintage ephemera.  The color theme is filled with rich golds and black that suggest the upcoming fall season.  And, of course, my regular readers know I like the contrast of black.  

In any case, I hope this freebie  inspires you in your paper crafting, art journaling, junk journaling  and/or scrapbooking time with today’s vintage freebie.

I so enjoy 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 uses.  I am trying to provide a few of these vintage printables more frequently.  I mentioned previously about how many crafting/junk journaling  Youtube videos I am watching for inspiration and ideas.  It has inspired me to actually tea and coffee dye some of my own copy paper.  The coffee dyed paper below is a scan of an actual coffee dyed paper that I created using a modified technique of actually immersing the paper in a tea bath; I also added a rose repeat pattern and it shows up within the coffee wash!  I hope you like it!

These jpegs are created at the highest quality, so some of the files may be large at approximately 5 MB.  If you are not into junk or art journaling, you can also resize some of these images and 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 ledger script, vintage botanical images 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) is having an awesome  sale throughout this month as we get ready for fall crafting, be sure to check out their daily freebies and giveaways.  Also, I obtained these William Morris images from another great graphic website, Rawpixel  which is loaded with a slew of public domain images and  artwork.

Facts about the Vintage Ephemera Junk Journaling Freebie

As for the details about the freebie, there are 4 printables provided today.    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 paper crafts but, of course, can be used in your journals.

This freebie has two journaling pages at 8.5″ by 11″ and two add on pages of large tags and a newly designed printable of 3″ x 5″ tabbed index cards.   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 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.  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 aged 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 Junk Journaling Printable

• Print and cut out the papers and use them as pages or pockets  for your junk journals, traveler’s notebooks and other planners.  Watermark is removed on actual downloads.
