Printable Journaling Cards: Spring

About this freebie

Add a touch of the season to your pages with these free printable spring journaling cards. The download includes a single US Letter sheet featuring six 3x4 inch cards. The color palette mixes crisp white with tulip pink, leaf, daffodil, robin egg, and moss.

These designs work well for pocket scrapbooking or traditional layouts. You receive a 300 dpi PDF file and the matching image files in a 1.4 MB ZIP folder. The 8.5 x 11 inch page includes light dashed cutting lines to help you trim the cards easily.

Ideas for using it

1. Write down memories of an Easter egg hunt or a garden walk on the cards and slip them into your pocket pages.
2. Use the 3x4 inch cards as a title block for a traditional layout by stamping a large title over the white space.
3. Print the sheet and cut out the designs to create simple hybrid cards and tags for your spring gifts.
4. Layer a tulip pink or daffodil card behind a focal photograph to create a soft, colorful mat for your picture.

How to use it

• Print the PDF on bright white cardstock at 300 dpi for the best results and sturdy cards that hold up well in page protectors.
• Use a paper trimmer or craft knife along the light dashed cutting lines to get straight, clean edges on all six cards.
• If you prefer digital scrapbooking, open the image files in your software and drag them directly onto your digital canvas.
• Check your printer settings to ensure the scale is set to print at actual size so the 8.5 x 11 inch page prints accurately.
• Print at 100 percent (actual size) so the cards keep their size.
• Matte cardstock gives the best result for cards and tags; do a test print on plain paper first.
