Fall is upon us.

That came fast, am I right? Well as fast as anything in 2020.

I'm looking forward to crisp walks and cozy evenings. Autumn is a beautiful time.

I have a confession to make though. What ever season it is, that season is my favourite. Right up until the last few weeks when I start craving the next one. You feel me? I hope its not just me!

Here's some colours to inspire your creativity as we head into fall. Deep oranges, like a desert sun setting. Rich wine colours, so deep they are nearly brown. Tan and cream. Chunky knits and leather are the textures that match.

I sure love finding new ideas for old concepts, and does this sure fit bill.

A map as an envelope has as many possibilities as there are places to explore.

Have you tried drawing a garden into your journal? Try colouring in a petal each day as a mood board.

Looking for a topic to write about? Tell your journal (or penpal!) about where you wished you lived as a child. Perhaps your answer is a real country or town, but places in film, or books, or history are all reasonable answers for this question.

Keep creating friends,

Till next time,

Samantha
