Here’s a set of free printable graph paper that is great for art journaling, scrapbooking and all kinds of papercrafting designs.
Sometimes we just don’t have some of the basic papers on hand, so why not print it yourself? So I decided to create a set of printable graph papers to share with all of you! Graph papers make such a perfect neutral base for art journaling, scrapbooking and more! These graph paper designs are very slightly textured looking to sort of mimic the pads of graph paper we used to have as kids.
I’ve included the light blue color that is what you see traditionally, but added in black, red, purple and green to spice things up. I think it’s nice to have a variety of colors to choose from, depending on your current paper project. What do you think?
Of course, you can also print these papers out in draft mode at home and actually use them as graph paper for math and design sketches. Feel free to use as you see fit!

Looking for some posters to put up and express your support for my body my choice? Download these free digital printable pro-choice posters!
Is it a natural progression of growing up or is the world changing drastically only now? I’m American and living abroad, but I have definitely been affected by the trouble brewing in the States, as well as across governments of the world. Very alarming changes are happening and I feel that we need to pay attention. Perhaps I was simply oblivious as a child and thankfully so to have had a youth with less worries. But now it seems like there is a second to second onslaught of negative news. People’s rights are being stripped away and there’s just a movement towards oppression of people. Many worrying and scary things are happening.
Living abroad means that is not easy to join in physically with protests in American right now and one can easily be too detached and removed from it all… but honestly, what happens in the USA has a butterfly effect across the world as well. We all have to pay attention no matter where we live.
With my skills as a graphic designer, I know that one way I can contribute virtually is to provide some printable designs for those of you who choose to go out and show your support through peaceful protests as well as simply declaring your position with a few yard signs, posters in your cubicle, etc. Don’t be afraid to express you true feelings and support. I think we really need to be as active as possible and not be afraid to declare what we support.
Free Printable My Body My Choice / Pro-Choice Posters
I’ve designed three different poster designs in a few variations depending on your preferences. They are easy enough to download and print at home or you can send to a print shop and get them printed professionally. Black and white is pretty much classic, so feel free to use these downloads as you see fit. I’ve also seen that green is also an international color to be used for pro-abortion movements… so wanted to include that color as well. I hope you will find these printables useful!

Where is your money going to and supporting?
BTW, I also found out about this website Progressive Shopper and they even have a browser extension, so whenever you shop you can be more aware of where your money is truly going. Although I understand it’s not always possible to boycott all sources that might be pivotal to your lifestyle, it’s always good to be aware and make changes where you can. Collectively it will make a difference. We have to make some noise in all arenas of life… good trouble, right?

A free printable love is love graphic that is perfect for your journal, planner or wall decor – enjoy this free download!
I know that I’m posting late in the month of June for Pride month of awareness, but I’ve had this idea in my mind for awhile, just took a bit to get onto the computer and design! The month of June every year is when we celebrate in a number of ways to recognize, bring awareness and support the LGBTQIA+ community. Why June you say? Because it is when the Stonewall Riots took place, way back in 1969. Known as the “Mother of Pride”, Brenda Howard is credited to have started this June celebration.
Certainly things have come a long way, but there’s still a long path ahead of us because injustice is still rampant and doing harm to the the LGBTQIA+ community. There are countries where it is still illegal to be gay, so progress still needs to be pushed forward. I have loved ones in this community and even if I didn’t know anyone personally, it still means a lot of mean to support diversity and freedom for all. I believe that love is a basic human right, so I’ve always loved the phrase Love is Love. That’s why I created this design and I think it’s perfect to put up on the wall, include in your planner and/or your journal for some lovely journaling time.

Check out this free scallop digital paper printable download for a whole set of of beautiful designs to use digitally or print at home.
Mid-year here in Italy means that school is out and summertime vibes are in the air. Most people typically hit the beach, but we don’t go as often as you might think. My kids seem to like the pool more than the beach… so we definitely alternate depending on the weekend.
I started thinking about the mermaid trend and how a set of scallop papers would be cool to use throughout the summer season, so created this whole pack in a pretty color palette to share with you. There’s a slight textured feel to these papers and I think they make great backgrounds for a variety of projects. It’s like a foundational start to a scrapbook page, journal page or perhaps dashboards or other paper projects you might be thinking to create.
So what will you use these papers for?

Looking for some free printable posters around the theme of no war, peace and freedom? Download these free designs for your personal use and let’s keep spreading the word on justice and what is right!
It’s no joke to say that these past couple of years have been quite challenging for most people in the entire world. There’s so much going on and maybe it’s also part of growing up and realizing there’s so much turmoil in our world and there’s always some injustice somewhere. It can be a very heavy subject and I realize not everyone likes these kinds of discussions.
However, I think it’s important, no matter how frustrated or tired we are… to ultimately remember and reinforce our values in life… so we don’t lose sight of the truth. We cannot waver, no matter what.
Politics, covid and now war in Europe. Definitely challenging for all of us and especially for those of us trying to explain to our children what it all means… answering their questions and worries. Coming from the design world, I wanted to share some designs I whipped up around the theme of no war, peace and freedom… I think they make great posters if you are heading out to protest or just want to put something up outside your house. They also make great printables to include in your scrapbooking and journaling, so you can document the times and write out your thoughts.
Download Free Poster Designs – No War, Peace, Freedom
Here are a bunch of variations of the designs to download. I’ve put all the designs on a Letter sized page collage sheet, that is great as stickers for journaling and scrapbooking. But each design is available for download as separate full Letter-sized pages as well.

FYI – The Ukraine Flag officially is the darker colors, but I have seen the lighter colored version as well, so I made both colored versions for variety below…

The peace flag is actually “Pace” which means peace in Italy. This rainbow flag in Italy was first used in a peacemarch in 1961, inspired by similar multi-coloured flags used in demonstrations against nuclear weapons. You can read more about the Peace flag on Wikipedia here. I have created the Pace version and Peace version in case you want it in English – it’s not official – just my version for your personal use!

I hope that by sharing designs it will help with your own journey of making sense of it all, exploring your thoughts and figuring out what you want to do. BTW, does protest make you feel uncomfortable? Maybe this will help you understand on IG by Trevor Noah.
