Happy Friday!   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 Vintage Christmas music ephemera combined with other floral images.  The color theme is filled with rich cranberry reds and greens that are appropriate for the holiday season.  And, of course, my regular readers know I like the contrast of black script.  

In any case, I hope this freebie  inspires you in your diy 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.   The list of ideas is long.

These jpegs are created in Photoshop CC at a high quality dpi, 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 Christmas music images I have scanned and other sources of vintage ephemera digital items, some sourced from books published in the 1800s and great vintage ephemera websites.   

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 holiday/Christmas crafting, be sure to check out their daily freebies and giveaways. They are pulling out all the stops for Black Friday! Also, I obtained these Johan Teyler images from another great graphic website, Rawpixel  which is loaded with a slew of vintage public domain images and  artwork for your diy projects.

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 Christmas washi and a newly designed printable of 3″ x 5″ postage stamps.   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, backgrounds or pockets  for your junk journals, traveler’s notebooks and other planners.  Watermark is removed on actual downloads.

Free Christmas Music Tags or Pocket Cards Printable

Hello peeps, I hope you are having a great week and are getting ready for tomorrow’s big day,  Thanksgiving, at least here in the US!  As you can see, I am providing a rather unique design for today’s freebie ( a set of Christmas music tags).  They are made with original  vintage Christmas sheet music ephemera and vintage holiday botanicals.

I really had a lot of fun  designing these tags even though finding and collecting the  vintage images was  a challenge.  But it was a challenge I enjoyed, I checked on Pinterest and found a great site for these type of music sheets and liberal download policies.  I have included the links for these resources below.

Design Inspiration

The backgrounds were a great find on the interwebs,  I went to my favorite place to search for these  vintage Christmas music sheets and found  this great  Pinterest link for “Free Printable Christmas Sheet Music”  or this gal’s site at, 25 Free Christmas Sheet Music Printables.  There are several popular Christmas songs to choose from.  They make great wall art, printables or art journal ephemera.

As for the details about the freebie, there are 9 elements in all.  The tags measure approximately 3″ x 4″.  The smaller labels/tags are approximately 3″ by 1.5″ wide.   I combined a variety of  botanical christmas images and vintage textures for these tags.  You can see some of my results in the following video.

Although these tags were made specifically as journal bits, as always, they can either be used for journaling in your project life projects, smashbooks, art journals or other types of memory keeping.  Or they can be used as gift tags or pocket cards, use your imagination and let your creativity inspire you!

Here’s a sample of what these tags look like printed out on white cardstock.   You can choose to distress the tags with Tim Holtz’ distress ink (i.e. vintage photo) or tea dye if you prefer.

Facts about the farmhouse freebie:

  • This free printable has 9 elements on a letter size page.
  • The file size is 3.7 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.)
  • Printing tip:   I would advise that you print on heavy white cardstock, plain or matte to use as tags or in cards.  You can print on regular copy paper to include as layered tags for your art journals.  
  • Color theme: cream, black, red, green

Here’s a sample of the christmas tags printed and cut out and put together with a few ideas that came to mind.

Thank you for all your Pinterest and other social media pins…

Free Svg Cut File – Halloween Baby Onesie

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 peeps…today I thought I would get these svg cut files out to you.  I have provided three Halloween phrases cut files for your Halloween crafting pleasure!  Of course, I have babies on my mind and after searching online for baby onesies for 0-3 months, I couldn’t find much available.  So, I decided to design these.

I have included the cut files in mock ups; so, that you can get an idea how the individual files might look like on a tshirt craft project. I used three different cute and quirky  fonts for these svg cut files which is part of a fun or  quirky font  set by several of my favorite font designers.  I used a script font, a bone shaped font and a set of Halloween dingbats!

I often sing the praises of Creative Fabrica and Fontbundles because these sites made it possible for me to accumulate great fonts at reasonably low prices or even sometimes for free with commercial use!  This is a great offer for anyone who wants to design a variety of designs for one’s personal use or small business commercial use.   Stylized fonts are absolutely necessary if you want to create original and unique designs for your personal use or if you want to craft them for sale.

Cute and quirky fonts allow you to make unique designs with personality,  like this simple design,  and their cuteness enhances the design rather than just words written in plain, uninspiring plain text. 

I wanted to give you an idea how this might look on your little darling!

 

Of course, this design will look great with  cute clothing accessories or Halloween themed baby signage!

 

 

Find me on Social Media

Just so you’ll know,  I  have a Pinterest board for Silhouette DIY Crafts |Silhouette, Cricut & Cut Files that has a  lot of awesome pins showcasing free cut files from other experienced bloggers and crafters on the ‘net.

There are pins of really intricate designs on my board as well as basic ones and new pins for the release of  the latest pins for Silhouette Cameo Designer Studio  & also Cricut Explore, the two most popular digital cutters.

Google Drive has changed their policy on file viewing for some users.  So the following preview is approximately what you will receive in it’s specific file type.  I have created the SVG files in Silhouette Business Edition and tested them for visible cut lines in this software… they are included in the corresponding links under the Baby Onesies.

You will need to have the software on your computer to open the type of files  and access your files.  I have provided the individual files on separate links for this project.  Be sure to check out the online software photopea.com which is a photo editing software very much like photoshop and can handle editing photos in layers.
