A Cottagecore Freebie For You - 1 Day Left! 🐝

Cottagecore Galore will be here TOMORROW! That means it’s time for my seventh and final cottagecore freebie for you—a printable 5x7 greeting card that you can print at home and send to a cottagecore-loving friend! It’s always a good time to reach out and connect with the people you care about and it’s especially nice when it includes getting a card in the mail.

Download the greeting card here. You can simply print it out on any cardstock paper and color the art in with your favorite coloring materials, such as colored pencils or markers (I used Copic markers). Then, totally optional but if you want a crisp fold you can score down the middle using a bone folder (use the dotted lines as a guide). Then, cut out along the faint border, fold in half, and pair with a matching A7 envelope.

Thanks for joining me on this celebratory countdown by the way. I’ve really enjoyed creating these for you and I hope they’ve been putting you in a cozy cottagecore state of mind!

A Cottagecore Freebie For You - 2 Days Left! 🐇

My sixth cottagecore freebie to you is a set of printable gift tags! Perfect for gifting a batch of that homemade berry jam you made yesterday! You can print these right at home, then color in the designs with your favorite materials (I used Copic markers because I love how easy it is to add shading with them).

Click here to access the PDF, then download and print with any home printer. You can use any paper you like, but I recommend something a little sturdy, like card stock around 80# or 100# cover weight.

A Cottagecore Freebie For You - 3 Days Left! 🍓

My fifth freebie for you is a printable recipe card featuring a very cottagecore recipe for you to make this weekend—berry chia jam! I made a batch earlier this week and spooned some on my overnight oats for breakfast, but you could also add it to yogurt, toast, or even ice cream! If this recipe sounds familiar, it’s because it’s actually featured in my Make Yourself Cozy book. Cozy and cottagecore go so well together, don’t they?

Download the recipe card PDF here.

Simply print it out on heavy cardstock and cut along the dotted line. The recipe card is 4”x6” to fit perfectly in your own personal recipe box. I can’t wait for you to try it!

Cottagecore Galore will be in stores in 3 days, but you can pre-order at your favorite bookseller in the meantime!

A Cottagecore Freebie For You - 4 Days Left! 🐌

My fourth freebie for you is a printable cottagecore coloring page that’s perfect for a relaxing weekend activity. Print this out at home and color it in with your favorite markers, crayons, or colored pencils. These illustrated icons are featured on various pages in my Cottagecore Galore coloring book which will be here in 4 DAYS!

I printed this out on cardstock paper and colored it in with alcohol-based Copic markers (which will bleed through most paper, so make sure to put something protective under it while you color) but you could use colored pencils, colorful Sharpies, crayons, whatever you have on hand! Download the PDF here.

P.S. If you’re interested in learning more about how to use Copic markers, I did a Copic video tutorial with Posh Coloring Studio back in 2018 that you can watch online here.

My third freebie for you is a set of animated cottagecore-themed GIFs to decorate your text messages, Instagram Reels/Stories, TikTok videos, and many more things! You’ll recognize some of these illustrations later when you flip through the pages of my Cottagecore Galore coloring book.

I have an artist channel on GIPHY now, so these can be used anywhere you’re already using GIPHY GIFs, such as iMessage, Whatsapp, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Pinterest, Tumblr, Reddit, text message, email—basically everywhere! There are also “sticker” versions of these that you can add to your Instagram Reels/Stories and TikTok videos! To find them, just search for “Cottagecore Galore” or “Katie Vaz” when browsing GIFs and stickers in any of those platforms.

Cottagecore Galore will be in stores on April 19th but you can pre-order from your favorite bookseller now!
