This strawberry junk journal kit gives you everything you need to make a sweet summer journal in one afternoon. You get 40 printable pages of original berry patch artwork: illustrated journal spreads, writing pages, patterned papers and a big bundle of ephemera. Print at home on US Letter or A4, fold, stitch and start filling it.
Picture jam jars with gingham lids, teacups and shortcake, bees in the blossoms and a little bird singing on the birdhouse roof. The palette is strawberry red, soft blush pink, sage green and warm cream. It feels vintage and cozy without looking dark or muddy when you print it.

Why Choose This Kit
You get 40 pages, two paper sizes and loose image files, all in one matching palette. A few things buyers tend to love:
- Both US Letter and A4 PDFs. No stretching or cropping, whichever country you live in.
- Every page as a 300 DPI JPG. Great for print shops, photo printers and digital journaling apps.
- Useful writing pages. The recipe page, gratitude list and bucket list give the journal a real job to do.
- Clear cut lines. Tags, cards and bookmarks have dashed cut lines so trimming is easy.
- A 10-page user guide. It covers paper choice, printer settings, folding, the envelope steps and troubleshooting.
- No prices or currency on any page, so it works for crafters anywhere.
How It Works
- Buy the kit and download the files straight away from your Taskdale account.
- Open the PDF for your paper size and print at Actual size or Fit.
- Fold each journal spread in half. Nest three to five sheets together and stitch along the fold.
- Decorate with the tags, cards, stamps and cut-outs, then add your own photos and notes.
File Formats and Requirements
- 4 US Letter PDFs (8.5 × 11 in) split by section
- 4 A4 PDFs (210 × 297 mm) split by section
- 3 ZIP folders holding all 40 pages as 300 DPI JPG files (US Letter proportions)
- User guide in DOCX format (opens in Word, Google Docs, Pages or LibreOffice)
To print you need a free PDF reader, such as Adobe Acrobat Reader, and a color printer. Matte paper of 24–32 lb (90–120 gsm) works well for pages. Use 65–80 lb cardstock for tags, bookmarks and the cover.
Customizing Your Journal
Print at 70% for a pocket-size book, or print two pages per sheet. Drop the JPG files into Canva, Word or a photo editor to add a name, a date or a photo before you print. The writing pages also take watercolor, colored pencil and ink nicely on matte paper.

- A family recipe book for jam, pies and shortcake
- A gratitude or prayer journal with the Summer Joys pages
- Scrapbook layouts and handmade cards
