Journal Flip Through: Vintage Ephemera With Birds and Botanicals

I'm sharing my newest journal. This is definitely going to become one of my favorites. I used three of my digital kits, plus miscellaneous printables from my blog and my stash. This journal is available for sale at my Etsy store found HERE.

The background pages are from my Layered Vintage Ephemera kit found HERE. I shrunk the pages to fit the passport journal. I also cut pockets from printouts of this kit.

I also used my Vintage Grunge Shabby Chic Postcards kit found HERE. However, I enlarged the postcards to fit the passport journal as background pages.I also cut belly bands from this kit.

And lastly, I used the Vintage Ephemera Collage tags found HERE.

The paper I used for the background pages is 32# Southworth Specialty Parchment Paper, found HERE on Amazon.

I printed pockets, belly bands, and tags from 65# Southworth Specialty Parchment Paper, found HERE on Amazon.

I still need to add a library pocket to both the inside front and back covers.

Free Printables: Journaling Cards

I tend to create graphics that primarily use medium and dark values. So I decided to challenge myself to create printables that rely primarily on lighter values.

Here are the results. These journaling cards measure 3 inches by just over 3.5 inches high:

Free Printables: Instant Ancestors Tags

I've always loved the tags people create using the Tim Holtz/Ideaology Found Relatives cutouts. I decided to create some tags using the Instant Ancestors and Portrait Photos digital collections from the premium member site of The Graphics Fairy. They were also inspired by some collaged tags designed by The Graphics Fairy.

First, three masculine tags (that I will be adding to my masculine vintage themes journal shown in the previous post).

And three feminine tags:
