Hello blog followers and visitors! Yipes, here we are at the beginning of May and heading to half of the year having flown by! Today, I just wanted to provide May’s pocket scrapbooking mini calendars! Hope you are on track for all planner, junk journaling activities and diy projects as we jump feet first into the spring and summer season!

These gorgeous photographs are from talented photographers who post their photos on Unsplash, one of my favorite freebie sites for gorgeous, professional and free pics. The rest of the template design is mine. This time I chose photos with lovely pink roses to commemorate Mother’s Day or at least that holiday is uppermost in mind.

These mini calendars are the size of pocket scrapbooking journaling cards (3″ x 4″) , so they are small enough to pop into your A5 planners, if you choose. I hope you like them!

Mini Calendar Specs

I am releasing the May version of these project life mini calendars.

I have this set of Mini Calendars (3″ x 4″) available as a free printable jpeg download for either your project life or other pocket scrapbooking projects.

Of course, you can also use them on your other paper crafting and types of weekly planner projects. If you have the MAMBI arc punch, you can also include them in your Happy Planners.

Note: Please do not use either the images or calendars for sale on POD online markets such as Zazzle, Cafepress, Redbubble, Shopify or other similar print on demand online markets. The copyright strictly belongs to VintageGlamStudio template designs.

Materials and Supplies

My favorite paper for printing out these pocket scrapbooking mini calendars’ is EPSON Ultra Premium Presentation Paper – Matte; however, you might like the glossy finish.

Terms of Use:

As usual these freebies are free for personal, non-commercial use, (check my TOU if you haven’t previously.) If you have been here before, you know the drill. If not, you might want to read the quick TOU below before you access the printable.

Some things you should know before downloading:

* Vintage Glam Studio printables are for PERSONAL USE ONLY.
*You may not re-sell, redistribute, or claim the original or derivative designs as your own.
*Please do not remove the watermark or modify the design in any way other than for your own personal use.

Mini Calendar Printing Tips

Click on the sample preview picture below for the full resolution 300 ppi image download.

[For best printing results, make sure you use a premium 4″ x 6″ photo paper set on Landscape for the best layout and maintain the aspect ratio so that there is no distortion in your printout.]

The finished items should be able to fit your standard 3″ x 4″ pocket scrapbooking pages or traveler’s journal plastic pocket photo inserts or Becky Higgins project life planner pages. Just thought I would mention again, since not all blog visitors are familiar with this type of crafting.

These inserts are different from your standard clear pocket and business card inserts for the traveler’s notebook.

Enjoy! 🙂

Here’s Freebie # 1 – May Mini Calendar

Freebie #2 – May Mini Calendar (Monday start date)

Per a reader’s request, I created this template which gives you the same pics but includes the month beginning with Monday and includes the project life week’s number.

Pink Hearts 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.

Wow, a few weeks later from my “Sweethearts” post the weather is almost the same. Those of you on the east coast are sure getting a beating. As its freezing weather in many homes and workplaces around the country, I am sincerely wishing you warmth and a happy hearth in these cold days ahead.

In any case, I was thinking about the color pink (this pink leans to a light coral pink). So, I created a freebie in a pink and grey color scheme with a variety of hearts scattered about, in some cases literally.

I also used some scaled down real paper texture hearts with roses and basic graphics as the background design. Is romance in the air as February approaches? Perhaps. I hope you like them.

As for the details about this pink hearts journaling elements freebie, there are 18 elements in all. You have four pink hearts journaling cards (3″ x 4″) and a few more labels, tags and elements 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.

Facts about the freebie:

18 elements on an 8 1/2″ by 11″ pdf file.
File size = 2.96 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 often distorted.
Color scheme: coral pink, white, grey

Most of my elements are made from commercial use or public domain sources, however if any designer feels their copyright has been infringed upon the freebie will promptly be removed and the freebie will no longer be available. Designers vary in their restrictions for their terms of use (even for CU items), so although I try to be scrupulous, I may miss some.

Shabby Chic Roses Tags and Labels – 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…I have been having an enormous amount of fun working with different textures to create digital paper. I am still trying to perfect my skills but I would like to think I am getting a little closer to creating highly textured and pretty paper.

I used the familiar rose pink and muted teal color scheme for this freebie and I doubled the freebie fun for today’s blog post by making a digital paper and then, also designing tags from that paper! I have made both freebies available for your use. I hope you like them.

As for the details about the freebie, there are 12 elements in all. The tags measure approximately 2″ x 3.5″ and the Dennison type labels measure about 2.5″ by 1″.

Although these shabby chic roses tags were made specifically as gift tags, 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 Gift Tags and Digital Paper freebie:

This free printable has 12 elements on an 8 1/2″ by 11″ pdf file.
The file size is 7.52 MB.
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 and I added a lot of texture which often doesn’t show up in pictures on the web.)
design style: shabby chic roses, birds, french script, texture
Printing tip: I would advise that you print on heavy white cardstock, plain or matte.
Color scheme: turquoise or muted teal, peachy-pink, cream, white
