Hello peeps! Happy St. Patrick’s Day to my blog followers and visitors.  Well, today I am providing an update on my latest vintage junk journaling mini kit printables!  I have been watching several  junk journaling vids on Youtube and that inspired me to try my hand at this project and see what I can come up with.   I wanted to help you out a little with a vintage ephemera junk journal mini kit printable set to  jump start  your crafting, art journaling,  and/or scrapbooking time with today’s freebie download.

It has been awhile since I last created this type of freebie which is loaded with  vintage ephemera  and embellished with  vintage Photoshop brushes that I own or have created and already have in my stash.

Today’s freebie was created from a variety of vintage ephemera-some made into Photoshop brushes and other’s are just png files of these images  sourced from vintage paper items scanned at a high dpi or great graphic sites that make these public domain images available.  Of course, this is a second set that coordinates with my most recent post.  

I didn’t add distressing shades or brushes on the individual images, because what I have seen is that different diy crafters have different preferences to the amount of distressing they prefer on their junk journal items, I will suggest that you take a look at Tim Holtz, distressing inks, if you are interested in what “distressing” with ink is all about.

Facts about the Vintage Junk Journal Kit Freebie

As for the details about the freebie, there are 26+ elements varying from tabs, pocket cards, quotes and an 8 1/2 by 11 journaling page..  As always, they can either be used for journaling in your project life projects or other types of memory keeping.

This free printable has 1)  a junk journal page  on an 8 1/2″ by 11″ jpeg file  2) A set of journaling tabs on a 5 1/2″ by 8 1/2″ jpeg file and 3) a png with St. Patrick’s Day phrases for your Cricutor Silhouette crafting. I didn’t bundle these files into a zip file , so you will have to download them individually. 

These elements were created at 300 dpi, so your printing results should be clear and sharp.

The materials I used were all vintage ephemera scanned at a very high resolution.    Enjoy!

Latest Project I’m Working on…

I don’t always get a chance to share little tips on what I am working on.  The following is a photo of my from my mini herb garden outside on my patio!  I thought I would share this photo because it’s almost the first day of Spring and I thought this pic was so fitting for today’s post…

How to Use these Junk Journal Kit Printables:

There are several ways you can use this printable to create your stickers and I have included a few in the following instructions:

1) The easiest way to use this printout  is to print it out on a full sheet of white sticker paper and if you own a Silhouette Cameo or Silhouette Portrait or other digital cutter, such as the Cricut Explore or Maker  you can cut out the  journal kit using their designer software.

2) Also another method,  would be to use heavy bond printer paper or you can use 65 lb. white cardstock or heavy white printer paper  depending on how thick you want your sticker  and then place adhesive via a snail tape runner or with a Xyron sticker tool or machine.

3) Another way, (albeit a little time consuming way) is to print out the planner stickers on sticker paper and “fussy cut” out by hand, I have spaced the elements so that you can use a pair of good craft scissors to get a clean cut and handle the fussy cutting.  Another handy tool to have for the straight cuts is a slide or rotary paper trimmer which will reduce cutting around the straight sides of stickers.

Shabby Chic Rose Journaling Papers Add Ons

shabby chic journaling add ons on desktop

Hello peeps!   Today, I’m providing the add ons for this set of vintage ephemera journaling papers printables  that I had hinted about in a past  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) journaling cards and (3) a set of tickets, tabs and a vintage photo journaling card.    (Any watermarks are removed in the downloads.). Let me know what you think about these designs in the comments section below.

 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.)    Your printing results will vary depending on the type of printer you have.  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.

Shabby Chic Rose 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), round hand 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 them.

I thought I would mention that Creative Fabrica  (a great graphic resource site and my go to site for many graphics) is gearing up for another great promotion, they just keep getting better and expanding the kinds of graphics that they are offering, so check them out if you choose.

Facts about the Vintage Ephemera  Journaling Add Ons Freebie

As for the details about the freebie, there are 3 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 3 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!

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.  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 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) for jpeg files or Silhouette or other digital cutters.

How to Use this Shabby Chic Rose 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.
