The leaves are starting to change here and I just found a bright orange pumpkin in the garden, hiding in the raspberry patch.
We have had dreadful heat this summer and very little rain, so I am looking forward to
Fall.
For this swap let’s create a pumpkin-any size and medium you choose and something with fall leaves incorporated into it again any medium you choose is fine. I know you can buy all kinds of fall things, but I am hoping everyone challenges themselves to make and create most of their swap package.
Sign-ups will go through September 1st. And mail out will be September 15th.
We had an odd number for this swap-so we will be swapping round robin- you will be sending to a different person than you are receiving from.

I had a pkg from Tina today when I returned from our local Apple festival. It smelled so good in my mailbox. She sent me the cutest little wooden pumpkin, a pumpkin spice sachet and some sweet fall napkins. Thank you so much! It smells like fall at my house now.

Thank You Andrea for the sweet package.
The treats you sent are not in the picture. My husband got to them before I could get the picture taken :).
I loved everything you made. The ATC and card were so beautiful.

Wow, Debbie I love everything you sent. I've decorated my home with the plaques, hanging pillow, and veggies. The teas will go to work with me Monday. I love the painted bag, you did a good job! I'm putting necessities in the cross body bag when we go to the Reds ballgame today. M&Ms are bedtime snack. The leaves and transfers will go on crafts soon. It was a wonderful package, thank you!

Oh Wanda, what a BEAUTIFUL fall package!! I got your package this morning and just opened it! You are one creative and talented lady! I adore the windsock and the fall sign is the VERY first sign of Autumn in our home!! (It is still in the 90's here except on this rainy day!) The shakercard is so pretty too!! Just genuinely love it all, thank you so much!!!

I received the prettiest box in the mail yesterday. It has a big orange maple leaf on top.
Sherry made the cutest pumpkin and little pillow with leaf on it. The bag full of Werthers originals is so pretty!
I love those candies. And check out the hand made envelope with pumpkins drawn on it. Beautiful job Sherry!
I'm looking forward to trying out the wet-it.
Thank you so much Sherry, you made my day.

So glad you finally received the package. Thanks to the USPO I guess it was delivered a lot later than promised - as usual. I'm glad you like what I made for the swap. It was fun being pumpkin creative. LOL!

My wonderful pumpkin and leaves package arrived today from Denise, I love it all! The coasters and leaves you made are great and needed, hubby was grumpy last night about not finding any spatulas and he is tired of hearing there packed, as we are not unpacking anymore boxes until I get my house! So he was happy about the spatulas you sent and sends his thanks. Of course Kent grabbed the Yummy candy! The dish towels are for decoration. Everything is just wonderful! Thank you too for the crow tissue paper you know I love.
All was just perfect and made my day!
Big Hugs,
Debbie
