There’s a particular kind of Christmas prettiness I’ve always loved — warm cherry reds, pine green, gold gone soft with age, robins and angels and snowy little villages tucked inside gilt frames. I spent this autumn making a whole collection of it, and this is the free sampler: ten print-ready A4 pages to try.
Pop your email in below and it lands in your inbox straight away — and on the very next page, so you don’t even have to wait for the email.
What’s in the free sampler
Ten A4 pages at 300dpi, ready to print: three vintage collage journal pages with a clean panel left blank for your own writing, a sheet of six gift tags with the cut lines and punch holes already worked out, a cut-and-fold envelope, a seamless patterned paper that tiles edge to edge, a folded star ornament template, a Letter to Santa, plus a cover and a how-to page.
How to print them
Print at home on A4. Ordinary printer paper is lovely for collage and journalling; a heavier card suits anything you plan to cut, fold and stand up. On every cut-and-fold template the line language is the same, so you only learn it once — a solid line means cut, a dashed line means fold towards you, a dotted line means fold away.
Score your folds before you make them. Run a dry pen or a bone folder along the line against a ruler. It’s the one small step that turns a good print into a crisp finished thing.
And if you want the whole collection
The sampler is one small corner of the Victorian Christmas Mega Bundle — 94 pages in the same palette. 24 collage journal pages, 48 gift tags, 48 labels, 20 doily-edged envelope seals, 6 cut-and-fold envelopes, 12 seamless papers with their repeat tiles, 10 painted watercolour Christmas papers, 8 build-it templates (a folded star, a gift box, a Christmas cracker, a standing tree and more), 6 ephemera sheets, 4 frames, and the Letter to Santa pages. It’s £29 (about $36).
No pressure at all though — the sampler is yours to keep and print as often as you like.
