Free printables…I am giddy every time I stumble upon a new one on Pinterest and have actually dedicated a board to collecting all the free printables I can get my hands on. Not surprisingly, hundreds of other people have too.

These professionally or semi-professionally designed pieces of digital art are ready-to-print-and-use wall art, holiday décor, note cards, craft embellishments, organizational tools or gift wrapping accessories, just to name a few. From vintage to on-trend and spiritual to tongue-in-cheek, there are printables to suit every mood, every space and every personality.

From a marketing perspective, the added bonus is the ability to create content that will go viral, providing brand exposure in a positive, helpful and non-pushy way. As a consumer who prefers not to be approached by a sales person while browsing in a store, subconscious persuasion is the key to my heart…and my debit card.

As avid fans of anything design, The Core wanted to weigh in on the free printable movement just in time for back-to-school with a set of crayon themed note cards for busy moms and dads to jot a quick note and tuck inside a lunch box or back pack. Thanks to Molly, one of our fantastical designers, for throwing this idea together for us!

And in case we’ve inspired you to further explore the world of free printables and see how your brand can become a resource for any and everyone who loves to give a card, stay organized and/or design on a dime, check out these cool finds:
