Table of Contents
This vintage pink christmas junk journal kit takes the whole holiday and dips it in candy pink, aqua and gold, the way a 1950s department store window might have done it. Inside are 20 scene pages full of aluminum trees, glass ornaments and one very glamorous flamingo in a Santa hat, then 4 seamless background papers and 5 lined writing pages to round out a full journal.
Print everything on matte cardstock heavy enough to hold glue without buckling, run your printer on its best photo or presentation setting so the pinks stay bright, and trim each sheet to the journal size you want before you start gluing pages in.
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.
Trees And Windows
Sliding color wheel light sweeps pink, aqua and gold across the shimmering branches, turning one tree into four different moods on a single page.
Nestled in tissue paper inside an open box sit a dozen pink and mint glass balls with gold caps, a few wrapped tighter than others.
Glue a real ribbon scrap across one corner to stand in for the box lid, or leave the page as is for a quiet still life opposite a busier tree spread. Either way this page rewards a slow, careful read rather than a quick glance.
Pair this page with the pink candy stripe background paper behind it as a pocket, so a hidden holiday card peeks out from the glow of the window.
Kitchens And Treats
Checked curtains, a pink stove and a tiny tree balanced on top of the pink refrigerator turn one kitchen corner into a whole holiday scene.
The usual mistake here is gluing this page flat against a busy background, which buries the small details in the room. Give it a plain lined or solid page as a neighbor instead, so the kitchen stays the star of its own spread.
Frosted in pink peppermint swirl with a ceramic Santa figurine perched on top, this cake sits ready for cutting on a cake stand surrounded by candy canes.
Write the family cookie recipe right on this page, or tuck a handwritten card behind it listing who gets which batch this year.
A pink stand mixer sits beside bowls of pink frosting and a scatter of sprinkles, with flour dusted across the counter. It pairs nicely with the pink and mint ornament dot background used as a tray liner underneath a glued photo.
Glamour And Garage
Parked under falling snow, this pink tail-fin car wears a wreath on its grille like a corsage, chrome bumpers catching a little gold light.
A small pink tinsel tree stands among perfume bottles and a hand mirror on a vanity table, with a powder puff resting nearby and a string of lights looped across the mirror frame.
Who gets the first call this year, and what does the card on top of the stack say inside, the one already addressed and waiting by the pink telephone?
Tear the edge of this page roughly before gluing it in, so the soft chenille texture of the bedspread feels a little looser on the paper too.
A tiny lit tree glows on the nightstand beside the bed, with a stocking draped over the footboard and slippers tucked underneath. The whole room keeps the cozy, playful mood this kit leans on throughout, much like the pages in the shabby Christmas junk journal set.
Mantels And Doors
A pink velvet stocking with a white fur cuff hangs from a mantel hook, embroidered with a name in gold thread and already bulging with small gifts.
Beginners can simply color the halo and candle flame gold and leave the rest as printed, while more confident colorists might shade the angel’s gown with two tones of pink for extra depth.
The candle holder sits on a lace doily with a few sprigs of holly tucked beside it, a small taper candle glowing above the angel’s folded hands. It makes a gentle, quiet page to balance busier ones nearby.
Place this page across from the pink tail-fin car scene, so one spread reads like an arrival: the car outside, the wreathed door waiting just a few pages later.
A row of pink ceramic cottages sits on a mirror tray dusted with fake snow, tiny glowing windows lit from within and a toy sleigh parked at one end of the display.
Gifts And Yard
Stacked tall and wrapped in matching pink paper, this tower of gifts wears candy cane bows instead of ribbon, with one box tilted as if it might slide right off the top.
The five-minute version of this page just needs a quick wash of pink and gold around the gifts already printed, skipping any extra detail on the train or skirt folds.
A toy train circles the base of the tree over a pink satin skirt scattered with wrapped gifts, its tiny headlight painted gold. It sits well beside the aluminum tree scene earlier in this set, as if both belong under the same roof.
Standing stiff-legged on a blanket of snow, this pink plastic reindeer lights up from within, its antlers strung with a few small bulbs against the evening dark.
This is the page for a gift journal going to the friend with the silliest, most cheerful holiday decorations on her whole street, the one who never takes Christmas too seriously.
A pink flamingo stands one-legged on a snowy lawn wearing a Santa hat tilted at a jaunty angle, with a string of lights looped around its neck. Little starbursts twinkle in the air around its head.
Sitting pretty on a velvet cushion, this pink poodle figurine wears its own tiny Santa hat, a jingle bell collar and a curled tail that catches the light just right.
What does the first sip of this cocktail taste like, and who gets handed the glass with the most crushed candy cane clinging to its rim?
Background Papers
Strands of pink tinsel loop between gold stars across clean white paper, repeating edge to edge. Use it behind a photo of the tree, as a pocket lining inside the back cover, or trimmed down for a journal cover.
Small pink and mint glass ornaments repeat in tidy rows across the page like scattered buttons. It works well tucked under a cake or kitchen photo, as a pocket lining, or wrapped around a gift tag.
Bold pink and white candy stripes run diagonally across the sheet from corner to corner. Slip it behind a stocking or gift photo, use it as a cover sheet, or cut it into strips for a border.
Tiny pink poodles tumble between gold sparkles across a pale aqua ground. Pair it with the poodle figurine scene as a facing page, use it as a pocket lining, or trim it for a playful journal cover.
Lined Writing Pages
A small pink aluminum tree with a color wheel glow sits tucked into one corner above faint ruled lines. Use it for a holiday wish list, a gift budget, or a note to open next December.
A garland of pink glass ornaments strings across the top of the page like a banner above faint ruled lines. Good for a holiday menu, a card-sending list, or a short letter to next year’s self.
A looping pink satin ribbon runs down one side of the page beside faint ruled lines. Perfect for a gift list, a recipe passed down from a relative, or a running tally of holiday errands.
A small flamingo in a Santa hat perches at the bottom edge of the page below faint ruled lines. Use it for a party guest list, a cocktail recipe, or a funny note about this year’s decorating mishaps.
A pink velvet stocking with a fur cuff tucks into one corner above faint ruled lines. Write a letter to next year, a stocking stuffer list, or a short memory of this year’s holiday to tuck inside the journal.
What to Do Next
Print the full set, trim each page to size, and start with the aluminum tree and the flamingo scenes first: the rest of the journal tends to build itself around those two once they’re glued in.
Frequently Asked Questions
What paper should I use to print this vintage pink christmas junk journal kit?
Matte cardstock around 65 to 110 lb works best, since it holds glue and ink without curling or showing through. Lighter paper is fine for lined pages if you plan to write in pencil rather than wet media.
What printer settings keep the pinks looking right?
Set your printer to its best photo or presentation quality and choose matte or plain paper in the driver settings, not glossy photo paper mode. This keeps the candy pink and aqua tones saturated instead of washed out or overly dark.
What size should I trim the pages to?
Standard junk journals run A5 or roughly 5.5 by 8.5 inches, so trim each printed sheet down after printing on letter or A4 paper. Keep a small bleed around busy scene pages like the gift tower or cottage row.
What should I use to color or glue the pages?
A fine tip black pen works well for adding extra journaling over the printed art, and an acid free glue stick keeps pages flat without wrinkling the cardstock. Scissors or a paper trimmer handle clean edges for backgrounds used as pockets.
Can I mix this kit with other Christmas junk journal pages?
Yes, this pink kit pairs easily with other sets for a fuller journal. The free printable Christmas junk journal pages in pink, cream and silver or the red junk journal pages both blend well if you want more variety in the spreads.
