Sea Life Junk Journal Kit

This Sea Life Junk Journal Kit feels like flipping through the field notes of a 19th-century marine naturalist. Every page is layered with hand-drawn sketches of jellyfish, clownfish, sharks, lobsters, seahorses, and coral, all rendered in rich teal and aqua tones against aged, cream-colored paper. The overall effect is part scientific journal, part coastal treasure, and it’s genuinely beautiful.

The color palette pulls from deep teal, soft turquoise, and pale seafoam, set against backgrounds that mimic old handwritten manuscripts and ledger pages. The ink-sketch style gives everything a sense of history and weight, like these ocean creatures were carefully documented long ago. Whether you’re working on a travel-themed junk journal, a nature scrapbook, or decorative card making, this kit brings a calm, coastal atmosphere to whatever you’re creating.

Mix them with the background pages and you get something that looks like it took hours to put together, even if it didn’t.

Download Your Free Sea Life Junk Journal Kit

Getting your files is simple. Click on any image in the collection below and you’ll be taken directly to the PDF version of that printable. From there, you can save it to your device or print it straight from your browser. No sign-up needed, no hoops to jump through.

All files are free for personal use and you can print them as many times as you like. For the background pages especially, try printing on cream or ivory paper rather than bright white. It deepens that aged, vintage feel and makes the teal sketches pop even more against the warm base tone.
