About The Collection
The collection includes a variety of grungy elements—like coffee stains, old ledger lines, and torn paper edges—that feel as if they’ve been unearthed from a forgotten attic.
You’ll find warm, earthy tones and subtle pops of color peeking through layers of age, making these backgrounds ideal for any project that calls for a touch of nostalgia.
These pages are incredibly versatile. You can use them as a base for collages, layer them into a junk journal, or even print them out for physical crafts.
They work perfectly as a backdrop for vintage-themed scrapbooks, mood boards, or DIY printables.
Dive into this collection, and start creating with that perfectly grungy, vintage-inspired aesthetic.
Whether you’re a seasoned artist or just beginning your creative journey, these backgrounds will add richness and depth to your projects, helping your vision come to life in the most beautifully aged way possible.
