Printable Journal
My blog periodically contains affiliate links meaning that if you make a purchase, I might make a small commission at no extra charge to you. Purchases made through them are greatly appreciated.
I created this printable journal so that I could write down all my notes and have a stylish way in doing this! I then designed 3 covers so that I would have color coordinated printable journals to use! You can add as many pages as you want.
Why print your own Journals?
Many people would just go out and buy journals, however once you download the PDF, guess what? you can make UNLIMITED journals that can be printed over and over again. I say that’s a pretty good deal!
Printable Journal pages
Printable journal pages come with a cover and journal pages. Check out the smaller journal below. Each lined page can be printed on one side, then print on other side a variation of the lined paper options:

Supplies for printable journal
Below are all the supplies that can be used for making these journals:
- Cardstock paper– best for covers and back page

- Scissors– Use to trim off excess white borders or round corners to finish off the journals
- Xacto knife and blade– Use with a straight edge for crisp cut lines
