About this freebie

The Retro Seventies Papers pack brings bold vintage style to your everyday digital scrapbooking projects. This free download includes 8 JPG papers measuring 12 x 12 inches at 300 dpi. The color palette features cream, mustard, burnt orange, avocado, brown, and chocolate. You get a mix of fun patterns like multi chevron, big dots, floral, wide stripes, harlequin, and plaid. It also includes solid mustard and solid burnt orange papers to balance your layouts. The 9.9 MB ZIP file is free for personal use and for cards or layouts you sell or give away.

Ideas for using it

  1. Create a vintage family tree layout using the solid mustard paper as a background and the chocolate brown plaid for photo mats.
  2. Design retro greeting cards to sell or give away. The wide stripes and big dots make fun, bold backgrounds for simple sentiments.
  3. Scrapbook your everyday memories with the multi chevron and floral patterns. Pair them with cream and avocado accents for a coordinated look.
  4. Build a recipe mini album featuring classic seventies dishes. The burnt orange and avocado papers fit perfectly with retro kitchen themes.

How to use it

  • Unzip the 9.9 MB download folder to access your 8 JPG files. You can open these in any standard photo editing software.
  • Learn more about page sizes and printing to ensure your 3600 x 3600 pixel papers print perfectly at 12 x 12 inches.
  • Use the solid burnt orange and mustard papers to frame busy patterns like the harlequin or floral designs so your photos stand out.
  • Scale down the big dots or wide stripes if you need smaller patterns for digital greeting cards or pocket pages.
  • Use the papers as page backgrounds, or cut blocks and strips by clipping them to shapes.
  • The papers are 3600 x 3600 pixels, so they can be scaled down for 8 x 8 inch albums without losing quality.
