#2026 September {NEW}

Happy Friday!  Today's new release is going to kick off our slide into September!

Celebrate that beautiful moment when summer begins to give way to fall with #2026 September, a warm and inviting scrapbook collection perfect for documenting all of your September memories. A rich palette of rust orange, deep green, golden yellow, and plum captures the changing landscape and cozy feeling of the season.

Inspired by those first hints of autumn, this collection is filled with charming seasonal elements including a beautiful changing tree, scenic landscapes, a rustic fall fence, a basket overflowing with apples and pears, apple cider, an acorn, pinecone, playful squirrel, cozy cardigan, and a gorgeous bouquet of late-season flowers. An assortment of coordinating flowers, ribbons, buttons, coasters, ephemera, twigs, frames, and other decorative accents gives you plenty of options for layering and embellishing your pages.

You'll also find seasonal wording and labels including Almost Autumn, Change Can Be Beautiful, Changing Seasons, Hello September, Savor the Season, September Days, Autumn, and September, perfect for telling the stories of this wonderful in-between season.

With 16 patterned papers, 7 coordinating solid papers, 50 elements, and a complete uppercase alpha and number set with common punctuation, #2026 September has everything you need to document crisp mornings, changing leaves, apple-picking adventures, cozy days, family gatherings, and all the everyday moments that make September special.

Embrace the changing seasons and preserve the beauty of September, one memory at a time!

Thanks for understanding my, yet again, goof up on a posted freebie on Tuesday.  Someone said they hoped everyone was okay because this is the third double post in a few weeks.  I blame struggling to adjust to having to get up even earlier every day than I've ever had to in my 30 year career and still working 10+ hour days for the past 4 weeks at a non-stop pace from 6:30 am to 4:30 pm and then coming home to work another 2 - 4 hours teaching private lessons and the work that didn't get finished before I left school to prepare for lessons the next day.  I'm dragging a bit and even though I thought I had looked back through posts before pre-posting this week's blog posts, I missed one that I actually already used.  To make up for it, I'm putting two freebies on today's post.
