This purple scrapbook paper set runs the whole range from soft lilac to deep plum, with nineteen sheets built for spring cards, Provence-style spreads and lavender-themed journals. You get florals, checks, stripes, toile and a few quieter icon prints, so every page in a spread has something to pair against it without repeating itself.
Print on US Letter, borderless if your printer allows it or trimmed to the edge afterward, and choose a matte cardstock for anything going into a journal so ink does not sit shiny on the page.
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.
Florals and Sprigs
Scattered bundles tied with ribbon sit well as a journal page base under a photo, leaving plenty of white ground for handwriting around the edges.
Dense clusters of lilac blooms cover this one edge to edge, which makes it a strong card mat behind a small sticker or paper diorama scene.
Tiny violets scattered in a ditsy repeat line a pocket or envelope nicely, since the small scale keeps it from competing with whatever sits inside.
Pansies with their dark centers and green leaves make a gift wrap that reads as garden-fresh rather than strictly floral, good for a spring birthday.
Iris flowers set in a half-drop repeat give this one a slightly more formal rhythm, ideal as a book cover or folio wrap for a lavender-themed project.
Small crocuses lined up in tidy rows work as a card mat behind a diorama cut of a garden gate or a tiny watering can.
Vines and Trailing Botanicals
Wisteria hangs from the top edge in repeating swags, which suits a pocket lining best so the trailing blooms show just inside the opening.
Grapes and vine leaves tossed loosely pair well with the lilac junk journal set for a Provence-style spread with a harvest note.
Clematis vines climb across this sheet in a continuous trail, nice for wrapping a small gift when you want the pattern to flow around the corners.
Butterflies scattered over a soft lilac ground make a cheerful journal page base, and pair easily with the iris half-drop sheet for a two-page spread.
Toile and Scenework
Rolling lavender fields and small farmhouses print in a classic toile style, best used as a card mat where a single scene shows through a frame cut.
A tone-on-tone damask gives a quieter background for a book cover, and reads as a solid from across a room while holding detail up close.
A lace pattern in fine line work makes an elegant envelope lining, and pairs naturally with the damask sheet for a quieter corner of the set.
Checks and Stripes
A classic gingham check works as a card mat behind a sticker, or trimmed thin as a border strip along the edge of a journal page.
Stripes of different widths in plum and lilac make a strong wrapping paper for a small gift, with enough contrast to read well from a distance.
A harlequin diamond grid in lilac and white gives a card base a bit of movement, and pairs well with the gingham sheet for contrast in one spread.
A buffalo check in lavender tones suits a book cover or folio well, with enough weight to feel sturdy even when printed on lighter cardstock.
Small Icons and Dots
Small amethyst crystal icons scattered on white make a light card mat behind a sticker, especially for a birthstone or gem-themed card.
Purple polka dots with tiny hearts tucked between them make a playful pocket lining, and pair nicely with the butterfly sheet for a spring card set, and work just as well alone as a quick gift wrap for small boxes.

Frequently Asked Questions
What paper weight works best for these printables?
A weight between 80 and 110 lb cardstock works best for printable scrapbook paper. Lighter paper is fine for envelope linings and pockets, while heavier cardstock suits card mats and covers that need to hold their shape.
Can I print these borderless?
Yes, most home printers support borderless printing on US Letter paper, and this set is designed to run edge to edge. If your printer does not support it, print with a small margin and trim it off with a paper trimmer.
Should I use A4 or US Letter for this set?
These sheets are sized for US Letter, so A4 printing will leave a small white margin on one side. Set your printer to scale to fit A4 rather than crop if you print on A4 paper.
Can I use these purple papers as gift wrap?
Yes, several sheets in this set work well as small gift wrap, especially the stripes, gingham and trailing vine patterns. Print a few sheets and tape them together for anything larger than a small box.
How do I keep the purple tones from printing too dark?
Check your printer settings for a color or photo print mode rather than a draft or text setting. Draft modes often push purples darker and flatter, so a higher quality setting keeps the lilac and plum tones close to the preview.
