Step into the golden hush of autumn with Whispers of October — a free printable journal paper pack from The Happy Handicrafter. This five-page mini collection blends handwritten letters, pressed botanicals, acorns, and vintage postage with the soft textures of worn linen and plaid. Perfect for adding a touch of nostalgic warmth to your junk journals, scrapbooks, or handmade cards.
🍁 Inspiration
Each page feels like a letter left between the chapters of an old storybook — delicate blooms fading into sepia tones, acorns gathered beneath oak trees, and whispers of time tucked between inked lines. Designed to coordinate with The Grateful Gathering and Autumn Glow collections, this freebie celebrates the beauty of late autumn — that fleeting moment between harvest’s end and winter’s quiet beginning.
