It has been my dream to go to an estate sale and open a trunk to discover all kinds of vintage papers. I kind of feel like that happened today. Thank you for sharing all this information and showing how to use it. Fern

Don’t ever apologise for being too long Tracie!! I often feel like you’re too short! Lol. Sure others do too!! Great ideas and lots of inspiration. Thankyou so much hon 🙂❤️🇦🇺xxx

Hi Tracie, this was great. I have a lot of ticket and postmark rubber stamps and I sometimes stamp them out on sugar paper (you can get a pack of A3 sized sheets from W H Smith, dead cheap and comes in a range of pastel colours, similar to construction paper but a bit more textured). I age the paper with some ink spray, a bit of splatter then stamp out tickets in different coloured inks. Once they're cut out they look just like the old tickets people used to get on the buses. I also stamp out rows of joined tickets and notch them in the corners with a hole punch. The sugar paper comes in flat sheets so you can halve an A3 sheet and then print on it as well.

Fantastic ideas. Love how you used the different paper weights, different colors of vintage inks and lovely old stamps. Oh, and those tickets are incredible! Thanks for sharing!!

Loved the look of the Strathmore tracing paper, just HAD to have it. Already have some newsprint paper that I wasn't sure what to use it for (daughter bought it for me for Christmas as she thought it might be something I could use) and now I know what to do with it. Thank you for your ideas

This was fabulous, you really do make the ephemera look so real and aged.TFS Hugs and Smiles

Hi Tracie, thank you so much for sharing how to create old ephemera from printables. I can’t afford to purchase genuine ephemera for my journals and rely on digitals. Printing on different types of papers really changes the look. Thank you for sharing your process💕 ...Kathleen

LOVE your spider!

Check with your local newspaper for newsprint. My newspaper sells "end rolls" for $4.00 each. End rolls are those that they know will not last a full run of the next newspaper edition so they remove them from the presses and will often sell them at a very reasonable cost. My end rolls have yards and yards of newsprint on them so the actual cost is almost a steal. They can be used for so much including flower pressing, journals, tags, children's play time crayon drawing, etc. Also, the core of the end roll is solid and fabulous for all kinds of creating.

Some great tips in your tutorial, Tracie. Thank you for passing those on. Have to say the Paperchase parchment is great to use. I’ve had a pad for a wee while now & love how authentic it makes my vintage documents look. C xx

Wow, thanks for the tutorial and the tips. I've started really checking out a local thrift store, for older typewriter paper and older copy paper. They are different and I just love using them. We have a big college near one of our thrift shops and when the Professors retire alot of their left over paper goes to the shop. Your pages turned out so authentic looking.

Thanks, Tracy. This was so very informative. I love the use of various papers for printing ephemera.

Absolutely perfect tutorial!! I can’t wait to have fun trying these ideas out. Since we moved across the US at the first of the year, we have a ton of whitish packing paper. It would need to be trimmed to size, though.

Great tips! Can’t wait to do this. I use washi tape to adhere tracing paper onto printer paper. Can reuse many times. (An ARTYmaze tip) I’m excited to try it with the other papers you showed us. Thx!

Great results, I love the tickets on the handmade paper (which I have a drawer full of!) Great minds think alike also! Though not to this extent, I have spent a couple of hours last weekend grungying/vintaging up printed ephemera pieces with just folding/creasing and inking!! (and a few done with Stainz by Patty Pockets as well) I gave in and bought some vintage style printer papers the other day too but haven't used them yet!!! xx

Love this tutorial.

Dont do it if you are worried. Mine has never had an issue. You can always use masking tape to hold thinner paper onto a sheet of copier paper and make sure it wont lift, fold it over the top, if that make sense. Should have mentioned this in the video x

I like thouse office paper... I never have printet anything yet... But from old books l find some that l will use in my Junk Journals.

Not too long at all! I've recently found a kitchen cupboard kind of cabinet to put next to my printer and it's allowed me to bring all my thrifted paper from the garage and organized by type. Your video will be a big help when I have to choose which paper to print on.

My take: I would have also gently “bent” the paper around that paperclip on the first one (they sort of imbed themselves into the paper when they’re there forever) and I would ever so lightly ink that area too, and add a little whisper of ink on the crinkles you created... it’s all in the (tiny!!) details - thanks for the fantastic vids 👍🏼🤗😎

I must know is that just a piece of lace wrapped around your wrist its so pretty i would love to know how you did it or where u got it 💕

Just a word of warning to others...I loved this so I bought a pad of artist grade newsprint at Hobby Lobby, loaded it in the printer and started it up. I knew from the awful sound that this was a paper jam like no other. It just totally chewed up the paper. I managed to gently get all the paper out but can’t get the back panel in, though I’ve never had any trouble replacing it before. I’ll have to have my son look at it. Some printers may be able to handle such thin paper as this, but apparently my hp8710 cannot. Try at your own risk.

I have added printing info to the description but Newsprint here is not too thin, the tracing paper is however. There are ways to print on thinner papers. Sorry you had an issue.

Don't know if you have a u haul store in your area, but you can buy a fairly large box of the "news paper" print paper for a very reasonable price. It is used for wrapping your things to pack. Vie used it for many different things. It lasts forever.

Without a printer it is impossible to do this, but I love to watch your videos Tracie. If you ever have a tiny, mini, winny time, perhaps you could see some of my videos of PUZZLES. Mean time stay safe, take care have fun and be happy. Lots a hugs and also l love to hear when you smile or laugh because brings a smile or laugh into my face. And that is wonderful.

Hermoso! en un momento sacaste un sello de un libro... tu lo hiciste? Podrias mostrar por favor como hacerlo en otro video? Gracias 😊

Hello there. Just wondering since I'm in the States we can possibly get different products. Can you tell me what type of stapless stapler (the brand) that you use and can no longer get over there? I'd like to try to find something comparable here. Thanks, love to watch all you come up with. Well I went back and looked and it appears to be a Paperlok. I'll go and look for that and see what I come up with. Also, do you attach your tracing paper to anything or run it directly through the printer? I know, so many questions. :-)

Hello and thanks for this video.. it's been great to watch. With regards to two items in this video, what brand and size is of the glue stick that you're using? also in your stamp collection book.. was wondering where did you find all those used stamps that are in the the book? Thx so much
