Feelin’ Fallish

Welcome to October!  As the air turns crisp and the leaves begin their stunning transformation, it’s time to dust off your cozy sweaters, snuggle under soft blankets, and indulge yourself in the season. Picture yourself roasting marshmallows over a crackling fire, sipping on warm apple cider or savoring a pumpkin spice latte as you embrace the essence of fall.

This month, we invite you to immerse yourself in the vibrant tapestry of autumn, where nature showcases an exquisite palette of colors. From the fiery oranges that capture the essence of sunset, to the soft pinks that evoke a sense of warmth, the deep burgundies that hint at richness, and the shimmering golds and earthy browns that ground us in the beauty of the season.   Katie has generously provided some fantastic freebies to inspire your creativity for this month’s challenge, or you visit the store, where you’ll find the latest selection of fall supplies.

The team has been hard at work crafting absolutely inspiring layouts using this exquisite color palette.
