Check out this full set of Free Printable Buffalo Plaid Papers – perfect background papers for a variety of papercrafting projects.

We are all familiar with the red and black checkered plaid that is referred to as buffalo plaid… and I’ve definitely seen variations in classic bold colors. However, I wanted to create a set of lighter more pastel colors in the same classic plaid pattern… so here they are! You can use the classic red and white variations for winter and masculine projects, but the lighter colored variations are beautiful backgrounds for journaling, planner decor and more.
I’ve been loving using intricate patterns behind a bold phrase, monogram letter or journaling card… it’s a great way to great a title page or opening to a journaling… what will you use these printable buffalo plaid papers for?

Looking to create some cute party favors? Use these free halloween treat bags printable templates to make your own!

Back in the day I used to design under the name “Back to Paper” – but over time I realized I had to consolidate to one identity and name which is this blog. However, I have loads of designs from the past to share, so I thought it would make sense to revive designs that could still be used.
These halloween treat bags printable templates are super cute for the season and I’ve also included a blank template in case you just wanted to use colored papers. With a bit of ribbon you can create really cute treat bags and consider mixed nuts or little toys in place of sweets or candy as well.
You can even use these treat bags as a gift bag for anything that would fit inside – it’s a fun way to craft and create something for Halloween for family and friends.
What can you use these free halloween treat bags printable templates for? Do you have some ideas brewing already?

Download this free printable rainbow paper for all your papercrafting projects or digital scrapbooking!

Is it Springtime yet? Looking for a happy colorful, free printable rainbow paper?
Although it hasn’t been the coldest winter here in Italy, I’m still longing for brighter days and more color in general. Rainy and cloudy days aren’t my thing because everything is just so gray and gloomy. Although it’s possible to see the beauty in these times, it’s just not exactly my thing. I’ve been longing for quite the opposite. Lots of color, almost punch you in the face – type of palette. My thought is to create a traveler’s notebook with the design this weekend and hopefully start a new happy journal.
So enter my rainbow paper design, a big grid of bright and happy colors. It makes a great background paper design, 12×12″ which you can use for scrapbooking, cardmaking, gift wrapping and any kind of papercrafting you please.
How about a colorful minibook or decorating in your planner or journal? It’s definitely time to get creative and chase away the winter blues. What would you use this printable paper for? I love printable papers because they are so versatile. You can use them in all kinds of craft projects, for yourself or your kids as well.
