for the month of September 


We are so happy to finally say it…

The very first Inspired Together Blog Train is NOW LIVE!

Welcome to Golden September – Where Summer Softly Meets Autumn.

For our very first Blog Train, a wonderful group of talented designers came together to create something special using one shared color palette, while each designer was completely free to follow their own creativity and style.

And that is exactly what makes this train so much fun.

From soft romantic florals and cozy autumn scenes to whimsical characters, beautiful papers, tubes, scrap kits, journal pages and so much more — every stop has its own personality while still being part of the same Golden September collection.

Different styles. One palette. Inspired Together.

We are incredibly happy with everything that has been created for this first train, and we hope you will enjoy discovering all the beautiful contributions as much as we have enjoyed watching them come together.

Ready to ride the train?

Below you will find all participating designers and their Blog Train stops.

Simply visit each designer, follow their download instructions and collect the beautiful Golden September goodies they have created for you.

Please remember that every designer is sharing their work with you generously, so when you visit their page, a little thank you, comment or bit of love is always very much appreciated.
