Christmas Junk Journal Pockets & Envelopes

Peppermint & Pine Printable Ephemera Kit

A Christmas journal comes alive when it has somewhere to keep things. The Peppermint & Pine Pockets & Envelopes Pack gives you eight printable sheets of vintage-style pockets, envelopes, and tuck spots, all dressed in antique paper, cranberry red, forest green, and cream lace.

The look

Winter holly and pine branches, candy-cane stripes, sheet-music paper, and a gingerbread cottage set the scene. A lantern, a chickadee, and a Christmas fairy in a red velvet coat add the storybook details. Everything shares one palette, so pieces from different sheets layer together without clashing.

What’s inside

• Pockets and tuck spots for cards, photos, and notes

• Full-size and miniature envelopes with decorative flaps

• Corner pockets for page edges

• Belly bands and decorative strips

• Envelope seals, closures, and tabs

• Tags, small insert cards, and labels

Eight US Letter sheets (8.5 × 11 inches), 93 pieces in total, in 300 DPI JPG and PDF.

Four ways to use them

Journal pockets: glue a pocket to a page and fill it with journaling cards, tags, and ephemera. Hidden notes: tuck a folded message behind a corner pocket for a surprise. Gift-card holders: a small envelope with a seal makes a handmade holder. Tuck spots and layers: mix pockets, bands, and tabs to build depth on December Daily spreads.

Printing and assembly

Print at 100% on US Letter paper, at your printer’s best quality setting. Cardstock gives sturdy, structured pockets, and lighter paper gives a soft, bendy feel. Cut, fold along the edges, and secure the sides with glue or double-sided tape, leaving the openings free. On A4 paper, use “Fit to page” (pieces print about 3% smaller).

Good to know

What tools do I need? Scissors, a craft knife, or a paper trimmer, plus glue or double-sided tape for the sides of the pockets and envelopes.
