freebie printables and how to use them

Do you ever wonder what to do with those freebie downloads you've printed? And how you should even use them? This is a set I designed for the September #30lists challenge and I'm going to show you how I've decided to add them to my journal.

If you use these printables, share with me on IG using #iloveitallshop and tag me @iloveitallshop, I'd love to feature your creative work!

LET'S EMBELLISH

I'll probably add a little something to the front of this bag, but I'm not sure. Sometimes, a little "white space" is a good idea.

See how I embellished the journaling card I tucked inside the folded kraft bag here.

I trimmed the #30lists ombre page flag inside the trim line, folded it in half and attached it to my bag with the same washi tape I used on the edge of my journaling card.

See how it looks peeking out from behind the first two layers?

For this banner I hand cut from the free printables set I designed, I trimmed outside the lines.

For the last challenge I used a circle punch for the numbers, but this time used a scallop punch. Here's a set of patterned paper scallop punches for just $1.00.

Like that pink rectangle label die cut? Find a set of 30 in the shop.

And here's another idea using a freebie printable, it's like the #30lists banner at the top of the post except I attached it sideways on the page.

USING FREEBIES FROM OTHER #30LISTS AMBASSADORS
The next two pages in my journal have been embellished with freebies from #30lists co-creator Kam from Campfire Chic. I hand trimmed the pennant shape, pointing it toward the number sticker, and will more than likely add the list prompt inside.

I like adding a bit of black to my pages, either by my generally using black ink to journal, or with other design elements. Here, I used a "TODAY" sticker as a placeholder and tucked the number badge from Kam underneath to anchor it.
