One of my favorite things about summer is the abundance of strawberries.  Here in Southern California, there are plenty of roadside farmer’s markets selling big, juicy strawberries as well as other summer fruits.

 And I have been taking advantage of all that delicious bounty as much as I can.  I guess all those dreams and strawberry picking, contributed to today’s  journaling cards freebie printable  which is geared for a “girly” project life or other type of scrapbooking layout.

I’m sorry, I couldn’t resist the whimsical fairy and the color scheme that is so reminiscent of the now vintage (and collectible I might add) “Strawberry Shortcake”, hopefully without overdoing the theme and the color scheme.  I tried to keep it simple and concentrated on small details.

Facts about the Freebie

Back to the freebie, there are four journaling cards plus a few elements and they can either be used for journaling in your project life projects or other type of memory keeping.   This free printable has 12 elements on an 8 1/2″ by 11″ pdf file.  The file size is about 3.42 MB.  They were created at 300 dpi and I designed most of the clip art and other elements other than the fairy which was designed by a talented designer named Pathy Santos.  I’m still trying to perfect my doodles.

New Project Life Printables

Interestingly enough, as I post this, Becky Higgins (the original creator of Project Life) has just revealed that they are now providing a digital shop for her resources.  And for those, who don’t know how to use Photoshop Elements, or other photo editing software, she is making her resources available on….you guessed it– .pdf downloads.  The new site is called “Digital Project Life“, you can read all about it on her blog on the link provided.

(Update: Just to clarify…I included the news about Becky Higgins and her blog above because the news was so hot off the press.  If you have a Pinterest account, you probably have noticed that there are many traditional, digital and hybrid scrapbooker’s boards that include several printable pocketbook or “Project Life” downloads created by different designers. 

I was merely commenting on her company setting up a digital scrapbooking resource wing for all the fans of her “Project Life” materials.  I just want to make it clear and not imply that she is endorsing me or any of my work in any way, I was merely providing information to my readers that are already beginning or attempting to begin to do their own digital journey in the world of digital scrapbooking and using those skills and materials on their traditional tangible, physical scrapbooking layouts.)

Thanks for your Pinterest repins and Social Media mentions…

Thanks for all those taking the time to comment, I sure appreciate the gracious thank yous and the legitimate “link love”.  I am honored to be part of your re-pins on your Pinterest boards in the ranks with other much more established designers.  I just can’t thank you enough!

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.
