Dreamy Memories Digital Scrapbook Paper 28 Sep 2018 7:36 AM (6 years ago)

Click on the link below to download the free Dreamy Memories scrapbook paper

I haven't designed a digital scrapbooking paper in a l-o-n-g time, so I thought it was time. The result is this soft blue, teal purple and pink design that I call Dreamy Memories.

Download the Scrapbook Paper

I'm a sucker for soft textures and this particular color scheme. There was something so relaxing about them when I was putting them together to make this paper. It was a lot of fun to design. I actually would love to make a digital kit with this same look but I don't have the time right now. Maybe later. In the meantime, I hope you'll have as much fun using it as I had designing it!

Oh, and if you want some of my existing kits that contain papers with a similar feel and colors, check out the free Swirls, Country Afternoon and Country Living scrapbook kits. They prove how much I love these colors. :-)

This kit originated on this blog but I've since moved it to my scrapbooking store. It's still free though! You will just download it from another location.

I'm admittedly biased but I really love this kit. It contains two of my favorite colors--teal and purple--plus, it's soft and comforting. And it's free! :-)

Fall Magic Scrapbook Mini Kit Freebie 30 Aug 2016 9:20 AM (8 years ago)

This free digital scrapbooking kit is called Fall Magic. It contains seven freebie PU/S4H scrapbooking paper designs in fall colors, patterns and textures; two clusters with cheerful autumn flowers and leaves; and one quickpage.

It's not even close to fall-like weather here in South Florida; we have two months to go before we can even wear long sleeves. But since most other people in the U.S. and elsewhere are getting ready for the changing seasons, I thought this mini-kit would be useful.

Download the Kit

The full Fall Magic scrapbook kit and a free Fall Magic quickpage are also available.

Many thanks to all the talented designers whose images were used to construct this kit: Helga of Granny Art, Cindy of Statchoo Scraps, Kelcey of LunaRosa Scraps, Lesley of Scrappiness Downunder, Cajoline of Cajoline Scrap and Jennifer of Pixels and Ice Cream.

Please read the terms of use text document within the kit for an explanation of what you can and cannot do with this kit.

I would appreciate it if you would leave a comment to let me know what you think of the freebies in this kit. Thanks!

Country Afternoon Digital Scrapbook Kit 21 Aug 2016 1:48 PM (8 years ago)

This free digital scrapbooking kit is called Country Afternoon, and it's for those who love the peaceful country life. It features a trellis covered with flowers, surrounded by a weathered garden gate and an old well. A chicken grazes quietly by the well, presumably enjoying all the colorful flowers in bloom.

Download the Elements

Download the Papers

There are 10 country-inspired PNG elements in this free kit, including a chicken, an egg, a well, a fence fronted by flowers, grass, a weathervane, a trellis covered in flowers, and three flower images. There is also a quick page that shows the trellis, fence and well combined. The eight matching papers come in soft shades of purple, blue, cream and mauve, in watercolor, distressed and stripe designs.

The elements for this kit came from Helga of Granny Art and the papers are altered versions of designs used by permission from Cindy of Statchoo Scraps, Kelcey of LunaRosa Scraps and Silke of Papierstudio Scrap Designs. Thanks to all of them for their creativity!

I hope you enjoy this PU/S4H digital kit, which can be used both for your personal scrapbooks or to make scrapbooks for clients. Please remember to read the Terms of Use included in the kit before you use it though.

Feel free to download my very first free digital scrapbook kit, too, which I posted a few days ago.

Swirls Freebie Digital Scrapbook Kit 18 Aug 2016 1:50 PM (8 years ago)

This personal use freebie digital scrapbooking kit is called Swirls, for obvious reasons. It will always be special to me because it's the first kit I've ever designed! I hope you like it and find it useful.

Download the Kit

The kit contains a quick page, two background papers and two transparent clusters, suitable to be used as frames. Its soft color palette of purple, ivory and teal would be perfect for a wedding or anniversary scrapbook, or to document any elegant occasion. This design is what my mother would have called "fancy schmancy." Since the 20th anniversary of her death is coming up in a few weeks, she's been on my mind. I'm sure she would have approved of this very feminine design.

Many thanks to Lesley of Scrappiness Downunder, Kelcey of LunaRosa Scraps and Cindy of Statchoo Designs for the elements and papers used in this digital kit.

Update 8-21-2010: I just designed my second digital scrapbook kit. Feel free to download it.

Please be sure to read and honor the short terms of use included inside the scrapbook kit. And feel free to leave a comment below to let me know what you think of the kit. Thanks!

Pool Party Mini Scrapbooking Kit 25 Jun 2015 8:33 AM (9 years ago)

Click the text link or the image below to download the free scrapbook kit and save it to your hard drive.

I just love these colorful pool party images, so I thought they'd make a cute mini kit. I also designed three invitations to match them (one for boys, one for girls, and one for boys and girls together), which I posted on my PrintablePartyInvitations.Blogspot.com blog. See below for links to the invitations. They also come with a FREE matching set of cupcake toppers.

Download the Scrapbook Mini Kit

I must apologize to children everywhere with skin that is darker than the ones shown in the frame images above. I always like the images I create to reflect a wide variety of children, but the only illustrations with darker skin wouldn't have worked in these designs. But I'm happy to say that they do appear in the free matching invitation designs:

If you want your blog or site readers to have this kit, please post a link to this page, so they can download it themselves. And please remember that it's for personal use only. Thanks!

Fall Apples and Word Art Scrapbook Elements 4 Nov 2014 8:13 AM (10 years ago)

Click the link below the image to download the free "How Do You Like Them Apples?" scrapbooking kit

Download the Kit

I call this free mini CU/S4H/PU fall scrapbook kit How Do You Like Them Apples? for obvious reasons. The red and green apple images have a grungy look that matches my fall leaves and scrapbook papers, so these make a great addition for those who have bought or plan to buy those fall kits. There are also three matching word art elements.

It's unusual for me to offer free CU images, but I wanted people to be able to use the with my CU fall kits. Please do read and honor the terms of use in the kit, though, because "CU" doesn't mean "free reign."

The name of this scrapbook kit reminds me of one of the funniest lines in Good Will Hunting. For those who haven't seen the movie (and I highly recommend it), the interchange goes something like this:

Matt Damon's character is in a Harvard-area bar, trying to pick up Minnie Driver's character. While there he gets into a fight with several snobby Harvard students who don't think he's good enough. Naturally, though, he gets Driver's phone number, because he's so charming. After leaving the bar, he spots the snobs sitting at a table by the window in a coffee shop.

He yells through the window at the main snob, "Hey, do you like apples?"

The snob looks confused but says, "Yeah, why?"

Damon slams the piece of paper with Driver's phone number against the window and says, "Because I got her number. How do you like them apples?"

I don't know if that's funny in print, but it makes me laugh every time I see the movie.

Anyway, I hope you do like these apples and the three fall word art elements that accompany them. Here's a link to buy the CU kits that match them (click the image):

Autumn Scrapbook Quickpage 3 Sep 2014 7:42 AM (10 years ago)

Download the Quickpage

Update: The full Fall Magic Scrapbook Kit is now available.

This free personal use digital fall scrapbook quickpage was created with components from my Fall Magic scrapbook kit.

I wanted this kit to reflect its name: Fall Magic. So I've included birds wearing hats, an adorable mouse sipping tea from a china cup, butterflies, stars and other magical elements. There are also autumn word art elements and plenty of autumn-related images to round out the collection. Feel free to download the matching Fall Magic mini-kit that I already posted, along with the quickpage in this post.

Many thanks to the talented designers whose images were used to construct this quickpage and my Fall Magic kit: Helga of Granny Art, Lesley of Scrappiness Downunder, Cindy of Statchoo Scraps, Kelcey of LunaRosa Scraps, Cajoline of Cajoline Scrap and Jennifer of Pixels and Ice Cream.

This quickpage is for personal use only. Thanks in advance for honoring the terms of use. I hope you enjoy using it!

Digital Floral Bouquet Image 26 Jul 2014 3:48 PM (10 years ago)

Click on the free digital floral bouquet scrapbook image to download the full-size image

This digital floral bouquet scrapbook image reminds me of weddings and summertime, so I'm hoping that a lot of people will find it useful. It's a 300 dpi PNG file with a transparent background, so unlike all the other files I've posted before, you can layer this one. Now that I've gotten the hang of creating transparent files, I'll be making more of them!

The lovely flowers and flourish images came from Lesley of Scrappiness Downunder, who very generously shares her prodigious talents on her blog.

Winter Snowflakes Scrapbook Paper 6 Nov 2013 7:11 AM (11 years ago)

Click the text link to download the free (PU/s4h) winter snowflake scrapbook paper

Download the Paper

This paper is perfect for Christmas, Hanukkah or just plain old winter scrapbooks, handmade cards and crafts. In fact, it must have universal appeal because in the years since I made it I've seen it used all over the web--some uses legitimate and some outright thievery. :-(

For me the design is wishful thinking, because I live in a place where it never snows: South Florida. So the only snow I ever see is on my computer screen or TV. We hope to change that soon by moving to Georgia (the one in the U.S., not Europe). The real estate market can't stink forever, right? (UPDATE: I finally moved in 2011. Yay!)

I love the little hint of purple within the blue of this scrapbook paper design. I'm happy whenever I can sneak purple into any of my designs, especially if it's soft purple. With any luck you'll find uses for this snowflake scrapbook paper design as the winter months wear on.

For those who celebrate Thanksgiving this week, I wish you a happy holiday. For everyone else, happy scrapping and crafting!

Please remember to honor the terms of use for this scrapbook paper. It can be used for personal projects or scrap for hire only. Also, please don't post this image or anything you make with it without providing a link to this site. Thanks!

Octopus Garden Ocean Scrapbook Quickpage 15 Jul 2011 8:47 AM (13 years ago)

Click on the Download the Template link below to access the free personal use/scrap for hire undersea garden scrapbooking quickpage.

I couldn't resist creating this free personal use/scrap 4 hire quick page that gives a glimpse into a magical undersea world. It's suggested that you sing the Beatle's Octopus's Garden to get in the mood while you download it because that's what the page is called. I even included some of the lyrics in the layout: "I like to be under the sea."

Download the Template

The lovely ocean-related illustrations in this whimsical scrapbook page come from two commercial use kits from Eena's Creations (eena-creations.blogspot.com). I think they're lovely. I also made free printable cupcake toppers, beach party invitations and paper napkin rings out of them. You can find those on my Party Planning Center blog.

If you want your readers to have this Octopus Garden scrapbook quickpage, please either post a text link or the low-resolution version of it above or in the zip file and link to this page, so they can download it themselves.

I call this free spring scrapbooking frame "Strawberry Fields," for obvious reasons. Its cheerful strawberries, white blossoms and shiny green leaves are the perfect visual antidote for those of you who are still in the winter doldrums. It was created as a 300 dpi PNG file with a transparent background, so you can use it as a photo frame, journaling box or just a lovely embellishment on a scrapbook page or handmade card.

Many thanks to Helga Stolzenwald of GrannyArt.Blogspot.com, DeliciousScraps.com and Cajoline of Cajoline-Scrap.Blogspot.com for the use of their beautiful images.

Valentine's Day Scrapbook Frame 1 Feb 2011 9:42 AM (14 years ago)

You can download this free valentine scrapbook frame image by clicking below

Download the Frame

This free valentine scrapbook frame isn't in the traditional Valentine's Day colors or red, pink and white, so it makes it flexible enough to use year-round. It's especially appropriate for spring and summer, because of its lilac and spring green color scheme. In fact, the only real nod to Valentine's Day in this image is the lovely jeweled heart. (But I think that's more than enough to make it romantic enough for Valentine's Day!)

The heart comes from DeliciousScraps.com, along with the diamond glitter circle, ribbons and swirls. The greenery and lilacs come from Helga Stolzenwald of Granny Art. Thanks to both sources for their wonderful images!

If you want your readers to see this valentine scrapbook frame image, please post a low-resolution version of it and link to this page, so they can download it themselves. And please remember that this transparent PNG image is for personal use only. I hope you'll find lots of uses for it in your personal projects!

Gold Holiday Scrapbook Elements 11 Dec 2010 9:41 AM (14 years ago)

This ~~free~~ CU scrapbooking kit features 25 gold holiday elements, plus an ornate gold border and an overlay containing a field of stars.

As a take-off on the old saying, "All that glitters in not gold," I've named this kit "All That Glitter Is Gold," because there's a lot of glitter and it's all gold. You'll probably find at least some of these images useful long past Christmas and the other winter holidays, so you should be well stocked for gold blingy things year-round.

Sorry, the freebie kit has been retired

Click Here to Buy Kit

The kit will be free for a week or so and after that it will only be available in my store at DigitalScrapbookingSupplies.com. So grab it now by clicking on the preview image above! (12-28-10 update: The kit is no longer available for free. The link in the image above now goes to my store.)

If you like this kit or the site in general, please leave a comment below. I know it's easy to grab and run (I do it too), but I appreciate it if every now and again people indicate their appreciation. I make it a habit to give some form of "thank you" to other designers' blogs I visit by doing any of the things I mentioned above at least once every couple of times I'm there.

Please remember to honor the terms of use for this digital scrapbooking kit. It can be used for commercial projects but there are a few caveats. Please read the TOU in the kit for more information. Thanks!

Winter Scrapbook Quickpage with Robert Frost Poem 8 Dec 2010 6:51 AM (14 years ago)

Click the text link below to download the full-size free winter scrapbook quickpage

This free personal use winter scrapbook quickpage features bright touches of color on a background that looks like a wintery, foggy day. The bright red in the cardinal and winter berries are there as reminders that it doesn't stay cold forever and spring will arrive once again!

Download the Quickpage

To emphasize the winter theme, I found a lovely Robert Frost poem that provides a written counterpart to the wreath's snowy branches and the overall winter feel of the page. The poem is called
Looking For a Sunset Bird in Winter and I thank the Famous Poets and Poems site for providing the text. Thanks also to Helga Stolzenwald of Granny Art, Marisa Lerin of PixelScrapper.com and Gunhild Storeide for use of their images in this design.

BTW, you can find the free personal use wreath element used in this design on my Christmas scrapbooking blog. Feel free to hop on over there and download it.

Valentine's Day Scrapbook Quickpage 3 Dec 2010 10:02 AM (14 years ago)

Download the free personal use/scrap for hire valentine scrapbook quickpage image by clicking the link below

This free Valentine's Day scrapbook quickpage can be used for S4H/personal use and features the valentines frame I posted last month. (That frame image can now be used for S4H, by the way. I've included it in the zip file with this quickpage, along with the terms of use.)

This valentine quickpage features lots of romantic bling, in the form of sparkly "diamonds" and glitter, and a beautiful heart-shaped jewel. The purple and spring green color scheme isn't necessarily traditional for Valentine's Day, but I figured you can get pink and red valentine images anywhere. Not everyone will have purple and green!

Download the Quickpage

The quickpage features a simple but beautiful love poem by Jessica Blade. It reads like this:

I wrote your name in the sky,

but the wind blew it away.

I wrote your name in the sand,

but the waves washed it away.

I wrote your name in my heart,

and forever it will stay.

The purple background and jeweled heart in this valentine quickpage design comes from DeliciousScraps.com, along with the diamond glitter rain, circle, ribbons and swirls. There is also a lovely sprinkle of sparkles that came from Jamie Dell, and the greenery and lilacs come from Helga Stolzenwald of Granny Art.Thanks to all of them for their contributions.

If you want your readers to see this valentine scrapbook quickpage image, please link to this page so they can download it themselves. And please remember to check the terms of use in the zip file to see how you can use this personal use/S4H image. I hope you'll find lots of uses for it and wish you a happy Valentine's Day!

Thanksgiving Scrapbook Quickpage 11 Nov 2010 5:46 AM (14 years ago)

This free personal use and scrap for hire (PU/s4h) Thanksgiving scrapbook quickpage contains elements from my commercial use Home Is Where the Heart Is kit. It also uses a colorized version on one of the word art elements from my Thanksgiving add-on to that kit. Both kits have had a price reduction!

Halloween Scrapbook Quickpage 9 Nov 2010 9:57 AM (14 years ago)

This free PU/S4H Halloween quickpage is another add-on to my Something Wicked Halloween scrapbook kit. I just love using those creepy images to design!

Download the Quickpage

This "Haunted Halloween" quickpage design is yet another trip to the dark side for me. I'm personally more inclined to dress up as a princess or something pretty for Halloween, but I don't mind creating virtual images that are a little more macabre. It's fun to take on another persona for just a little while.

As I mentioned, this quickpage is from my Something Wicked scrapbook kit. You can get it by clicking the link below:

The scrapbook elements are also available in a bundle with my CU Halloween word art for a reduced price.

Please remember that you can use my paid scrapbook kits for commercial use, but not my freebies. You can use them if you have a scrap for hire business, though, and, of course, for any personal project you want.

Fall Leaves Scrapbook Paper 7 Nov 2010 11:41 AM (14 years ago)

This free personal use (PU) fall scrapbook paper uses the leaf and string swirl element from my commercial use Thanksgiving add-on to the Home Is Where the Heart Is kit, which went on sale today.

I'm a sucker for purple and orange together with other fall hues, so I really like this design. I hope you like it, too, and that you have a wonderful Thanksgiving! And if you're from a country that doesn't celebrate Thanksgiving in November, I hope you'll find this fall paper useful for other things.

FYI, I have a free Thanksgiving quickpage from the same kit.

Halloween Scrapbook Cluster 25 Oct 2010 7:22 AM (14 years ago)

Click the link below to download the digital Halloween frame

I call this free personal use/S4H Halloween scrapbook cluster frame Halloween Sewing Circles, because it features machine-made stitches, buttons, string and straight pins, with a few fall leaves thrown in for good measure.

Download the Frame

I created this Halloween sewing-theme frame in honor of my mother, who was a professional seamstress. She made most of my clothes when I was growing up, which allowed me to wear the very loud colors I favored at the time and couldn't find in stores. I cringe when I think of the semi-formal metallic off-the-shoulder dress in bright shades of teal and magenta that she made for me in junior high. Or the skirt and jacket with fluorescent (and that's not exaggerating) orange accents. You could practically see them from outer space. Yikes. Well, I thought it was cool at the time and my mom let me have whatever fabric I wanted. For that, she deserves to have at least a Halloween scrapbook embellishment dedicated to her!

Thanks to Gunhild Storeide for most of the elements used in this design.

Please remember that the freebies on this blog are not for commercial use (they're for PU/S4H only), unless specifically indicated. But the kits on my Digital Scrapbooking Supplies site can be used commercially, subject to a few simple terms. Thanks!

Halloween Word Art 4 Oct 2010 6:30 AM (14 years ago)

This free PU/S4H Halloween word art is an add-on to my Halloween word art kit. It's pretty basic, but I think you'll find it will come in handy for Halloween scrapbooks and crafts.

Download the Word Art

I'm not a morbid person by any means, but I must say that my Halloween kits have been a little on the creepy side. That's the point of Halloween, after all. I'm very happy with both of the kits, but I must say I'm glad to leave the dark side, design-wise, and start working on my two new companion kits, Home for the Holidays: Thanksgiving and Home for the Holidays: Christmas. I never know what a kit will truly look like until it's almost finished, but I'm planning lots of warm colors and a real homey feel.

But let's not leave Halloween just yet! If you'd like to purchase my new Halloween word art, just click the link below:

Fall Leaves Scrapbook Cluster 1 Oct 2010 6:46 AM (14 years ago)

Download the fall leaves scrapbook frame by clicking the link below

Download the Frame

This free PU/S4H fall scrapbook cluster frame was created using my fall leaf elements. It started out quite simply but I got carried away and couldn't stop adding leaves. Hence, we have the ornate cluster you see before you! I hope you find it useful for your personal or scrap for hire projects. (No commercial use of this freebie, please.)

I'm a little biased, but I think this frame came out kind of pretty! ;-) It reminds me a lot of the seemingly billions of leaves that used to fall every autumn in the yard of the house I grew up in. There was a liquid amber tree in the front yard that had beautiful colored leaves in the fall. It stood out because there weren't a lot of colorful leaves in the part of L.A.'s San Fernando Valley where I lived. Most trees went from green to gray-brown to naked in rapid succession. Now I live in South Florida and there's nary an autumn leaf to be seen. But we do have spectacular giant flowering trees with blossoms in bright shades of persimmon and yellow in the spring, so that kind of balances things out.

If you'd like to purchase the CU/S4H/PU fall leaves used to construct the cluster or the fall papers that match them, click the links below:

There's also a bundle for a reduced price if you want both. It includes a bonus free quickpage that uses the scrapbooking frame in this post.

This free St.Patrick's Day double scrapbooking frame is very similar to the Halloween Sewing Circles frame I posted last October.

Today I have to take care of some overdue housekeeping. I was so busy putting up my new DigitalScrapbookingSupplies.com site, I had to delay posting my gratitude for a blog award I received last week. So, thanks to Laura at the lovely The Alliance Trader blog for giving Free Scrapbooking Supplies the "Cherry on Top" award:

I couldn't be more pleased! It's my first blog award, so it's extra special to me. According to the award rules, I'm supposed to thank the giver, show the award, post a favorite picture, name three things I love and give the award to five other bloggers.

So here's one of my favorite pictures of all time. It's of my nephew Spencer at Disney World when he was two or so:

Look at those big blue eyes! And I'm sure you'll recognize the frame.

As for what I love, that made me stop and think. Here's what I came up with:

1.) Designing images
For years I made my living as a magazine art director until I switched to writing and editing. It's only recently that I returned to design--this time to please myself, not clients. The fact that people seem to like some of the things I create brings me a lot of joy.

2.) Watching movies
I love movies. I was even an extra in a few of them when I lived in Los Angeles.

3.) Spending time with children
I don't get to do it that often because I don't have children of my own but I always find myself uplifted after hanging out with kids.

Now to give the award to five other deserving recipients:

Scrappiness Downunder
Lesley is incredibly talented, prolific and generous.

Granny Art (No longer online)
Like Lesley, Helga is an incredible artist who freely gives of her huge collection of art.

LunaRosa (No longer online)
Kelcey of Lunarosa is also generous with her colorful and creative scrapbook freebies. If you hurry, you can see the picture she posted of herself before she pulls it down!

Far Far Hill
Skimersan of Far Far Hill is another purveyor of beautiful freebie images.

Engrish Funny
Although politically incorrect, the manglings of the English language by non-Americans posted on this blog are hilarious.

So, there you have it. Thanks again to Laura for the award!
