i heart fall: day 1

Finally, the i heart fall journaling class started today. I have been so excited to start this, since I made my journal a couple of weeks ago.

Here is the prompt for day 1, in Janel's words:

Day One Journal Prompt: I always like to start my new journals with two things; a Welcome page/Intro page and then a goal page (which we will do tomorrow). I love a fresh start. Today I want you to create a Welcome page for your journal. Welcoming the new season, welcoming your readers, welcoming the idea of journaling :)

And here is my page for day 1:

I printed out a welcome sign I found online onto vellum, which I then glued to a piece of scrapbook paper. I cut out the letters for fall, and punched some circles out of pretty paper I bought just for this project. I also glued on another picture I found online, of a welcome mat. I wrote today's date in one of the punched circles.
