This blue scrapbook paper set gathers eighteen icy winter patterns for card fronts, journal pages and cocoa gift wraps. Expect snowflakes, delft tiles, skating pond toile, bluebirds, plaids and mugs of cocoa, all drawn crisp and clean on pale winter grounds.
Print on US Letter, borderless if your printer allows it or trimmed to the edge afterward, and choose a matte paper or cardstock if the sheet is going into a journal where pen needs to sit well on top.
Using these images: free for personal projects such as printing, coloring, cards, journals and gifts. Handmade items that include them may be sold up to 30 pieces per design. More than that is commercial use and is not permitted, and neither is selling or sharing the images themselves or passing them off as your own. Please ask before any other use.
Snow and Sky
Lay this one under a window photo on a journal page, letting the mixed snowflake sizes frame the picture without crowding it.
Bluebirds resting on snowy branches make a gentle base for a winter nature spread, and it pairs well with the frosted pine sprig paper below for a layered page.
Use this as a book cover or folio wrap for a winter journal, the icy pine sprigs reading quietly without pulling focus from a title label.
Line a small gift box with this one for a cocoa or cookie gift, the frosted leaves and berries keeping the wrap seasonal without turning it into a full Christmas print. See more blue Christmas junk journal pages for a matching set.
Tiles and Toile
This delft tile print makes a strong card mat behind a sticker or a small cut paper diorama, the tiny blue flower centers giving it texture up close.
The skaters and frozen pond scene works beautifully as a journal page base under a winter photo, giving the spread a storybook feel. For more pond scenes, browse watercolor pond ideas.
Scattered blue and white vases dress up a pocket lining nicely, especially tucked behind a ribbon tie or a small tag.
A row of snow capped cottages makes a charming book cover for a winter journal, or a card mat behind a tiny paper house diorama.
Checks and Stripes
This soft buffalo check pairs naturally with the mitten and scarf icon paper, the two making a cozy two paper combination for a winter card set.
Pale ticking stripes dotted with tiny stars make a calm envelope lining that still reads as winter without any snow motifs at all.
Small white snowflakes sit over a blue gingham ground here, giving a wrapping paper option that still feels playful for a child’s gift.
The soft plaid with white and silver lines works well as a card mat behind a monogram or a small cut word, keeping the background quiet but detailed.
Damask and Florals
This frost swirl damask gives a formal background for a card front, especially one finished with a ribbon or a wax seal sticker.
Plain white polka dots on periwinkle make an easy pocket lining for a junk journal, simple enough to let a photo or ticket stub stand out on top.
Large hydrangea heads make a soft floral base for a gift wrap, bringing a garden feel into an otherwise icy set. See more in hydrangea painting ideas.
Tiny blue hearts scattered with small dots give a gentle all over print, a good fit for a card mat under a Valentine or a love note tucked in winter wrapping.
Cozy Icons
Small mittens and scarves scattered across white suit a cocoa themed card mat, and pair neatly with the buffalo check paper above for a two sheet card set.
Blue cocoa mugs topped with marshmallows tossed across the sheet make a fun wrapping paper for a hot cocoa gift set or a stack of winter cards.
What to Do Next
Download the sheets, print a few onto matte cardstock, and start building a winter card or journal spread with whichever two or three patterns catch your eye first.
Frequently Asked Questions
What paper weight works best for these printable papers?
A weight between 24 lb and 32 lb cardstock or heavy matte paper works best. It feeds through most home printers without jamming and holds up to folding for cards or gift wrap without tearing.
Can I print these papers borderless?
Yes, if your printer supports a borderless US Letter setting, select it for full edge to edge coverage. Otherwise print with the smallest margin available and trim the white edge off with a paper trimmer.
Should I use A4 or US Letter for these sheets?
These sheets are sized for US Letter, so select that size in your print dialog for the best fit. If you only have A4 paper, choose fit to page rather than actual size to avoid a cropped edge.
Can I use these as gift wrap for small presents?
Yes, several of these patterns suit small gift wrapping well, especially the cocoa mug, mitten and snowflake designs. Print a few sheets, tape the edges together for larger gifts, and finish with ribbon.
What is the best paper for pages going into a junk journal?
A matte cardstock or heavy matte paper is best for junk journal pages. It takes pen and glue well without curling, and it holds up to handling better than a glossy photo paper finish.
