Free Scrapbooking and Junk Journal Printables and Digital Ephemera *Updated Jan 2025 Photos are best saved from a desktop Enjoy these free scanned images from my paper stash. I have digitally altered some of the images using photoshop but most of them are scans of the original graphic.  Click on photo to view in a gallery. Right Click to save the photo Visit my Facebook page for more free digitals This one was originally made with watercolour paper, rubber stamps and inks.   This cool woodcut of a bagpiper and his dog is from a magazine published in 1898. From a vintage Sears catalogue   This is just a vintage book page with a rubber stamp. This technique looks great in a frame all on its own. I always look for vintage novels with thicker soft pages as they hold the ink nicely,                         ...

Happy May! How is it here already?  I still haven't adjusted to writing 2025 yet. I am in the process of moving my Genealogy and Research content to another blog. I already have a zillion so whats another lol. I wanted a separate space to host the free record and genealogy look-ups I offer so it doesn't get lost in with all of my scrapbooking and photo stuff. For now the site will be hosted at   https://grisoldgenealogicalservices.blogspot.com/    This site will focus mainly on Canadian Genealogy  with an emphasis on places/sites you can search for free.      Thirty years ago, in the very early days of the World wide web, I had a site called Canadian Genealogy Made Easy. I ran it for a few years but I was fostering full-time and had my own children as well so it became a little overwhelming. Now that I am an empty-nester close to retirement I am feeling the family tree bug again and would love to help you with your family tree mysteries...

Most of these are Graphics from newspapers and magazines circa 1890-1930.  I love the detail on the woodcut drawings! Updated Feb 2025 Don't forget Mother's Day is coming up. These would make great card fronts and journal pages. This one always makes me think of Downton Abbey! Click here for more free vintage graphics
