Happy September lovely blog readers! I’m still pondering over how I can organize and refine a posting schedule for my various blogs, including this one…see the last post for details. I’m always open to suggestions, so do let me know what you think. What do you want to see, learn, share, discuss about? In the meantime, I thought I would post this little printable freebie. I’m going into a lot of scrapbooking and minibook making for all my vacation photos, so these were some journaling notecards I whipped up to use. There’s space to put in the date, location and notes…especially good for itinerary types of memory keeping.

Hope you enjoy and until next time…when I get my scheduling sorted out! Thanks and ciao ciao!

This week I decided to offer a hand drawn illustration that I’ve scanned in and turned into a digital stamp. I know this is the normal process for many designers, but I thus far have always created everything directly in illustrator. I just liked the fact that the lines are clean, however that has been frustrating lately because I’m not being able to create the line quality I want. I don’t currently have a tablet drawing tool, so everything is just a bit too clean and graphic looking at times. I decided it was time to scan, even though I’m sooo not looking forward to the processing. Well, first time for everything…

Here’s my little balloon girl, it’s a doodle I created a while back, now turned into a digital stamp design. Download the high quality PNG file and feel free to use for your personal projects. Spread the word and please let me know via the comments what you think about quality, the hand drawn lines, etc. I would love to know what folks are looking for in terms of digital stamp designs and the style. Is the hand drawn line more preferred versus the cleaner computer graphic style? I wonder… thank you in advance and enjoy!

Here’s another freebie download for y’all as I keep on going with my hybrid card design passion. I decided to go on the theme of sewing with another one of those cheesy sentiments – I can’t help it! Download the printable PDF for all the materials you’ll need, then add your own embellishments to finish it off.

I made a sample card, but accidentally printed too fast on regular paper instead of cardstock. I didn’t want to waste paper, so went ahead with constructing it, realizing it wasn’t too bad afterall. However, I think cardstock would be a sturdier type of paper to use for most cardmakers. Enjoy this freebie and let me know what you think!

Looking for a free printable library card template? Here are some mock printables for decorating your books and papercrafting.
Another week means another free printable for you!
As I work on designs, sometimes there are extras left over that I put up as a free download here on the blog. It’s nice to be able to share something that others can use in their crafting. The more the merrier!
Here’s an example of something that I wanted to create, just because library journaling cards have been all the rage in papercrafting. They seem to be popping up all over, in scrapbooking and cardmaking.
Although it would be great to find real vintage library cards to incorporate into projects, it’s nice to have a printable version that I can repeatedly use. Print as many copies as you like!
Here’s my free printable library card template in a couple of styles.

Looking for some pretty and free flower digital stamps? Download these designs for coloring, cardmarking and scrapbooking fun!
Hi everyone! I’m getting more organized these days and trying to get weekly features up on this blog, including digital card designs as well as freebie digital stamps. Here’s a free set of floral patterns, along with a gerber daisy. You can use the florals in a background pattern design or just individually for a beautiful card.
I’ve also realized that digital stamp designs can also be used for embroidery. The possibilities I suppose are only limited by your imagination! I came up with these while working on repeating pattern designs – often doodling just happens – so I thought it would be nice to share.
