ohDEERme autumn...

Hello lovelies!  It's that wonderful time again to share with you a fun new kit from Freckled Fawn...the Autumn ohDEERme kit is completely adorable...all things playful, whimsical, and full of autumn goodness.

I've got a few things to share with you tonight, each containing contents from this kit.  At the end of this post you'll notice a list of where each of the kit contents came from...so many fun, enchanting shops to explore.

This card uses the stitched cards, whimsical mushroom (this color is my new, very most favorite color in the whole world), and a chipboard pumpkin, painted and distressed and then stamped with Papertrey Ink's Layered Postmarks:  Holiday, and a tag stamped with the 2009 Autumn Tag set.  The sweet little crow and dimensional leaf are another couple of my favorite things from American Crafts Scarecrow Sticker Sheet.  

Items from the kit used on this card are the paper bow, cork board cloud, felt rose, whimsical mushroom, and wood leaf.  

I used My Mind's Eye and Farm House Paper Co. paper on this card, a Pink Paislee chipboard Artisan heart, and the wood leaf is stamped using Papertrey Ink's Polka Dot Basics stamp set with the tag stamped using the Tag-Its #7 set.  

More kit goodness used here including the washi tape, glassine envelope, flair button, sequins (yaaay!), resin flowers, whimsical mushroom, and wood leaf.  I added paper by Basic Grey and My Mind's Eye, scrunched seam binding from Craft Spot, a Jenni Bowlin sticker and vellum flower, and fabric.  The stamp used for the sentiment is from Papertrey Ink's Fall Elegance set and the hearts from the Love Lives Here:  Holiday set.  

And lastly, a fun little gift jar filled with salted caramels use the chipboard pumpkin, washi, and paper pinwheel from the kit.  Who can resist all of the sweet goodies in this crafty bundle?

If you're a pumpkin lover, this recipe is yummy!  I made Autumn Pumpkin Bars a few days ago and loved them.

LOVE it all... you know, I am here nearly every day, and am so rude as to only comment every so often.

I love the first card, it's just so cozy and homespun. I LOVE the pocket full of sequins on the second one, and who DOESN'T love a pinwheel?!

What a beautiful group of fall cards! So many amazing ideas! I'm loving this time of year and the nesting feeling that sets in for me. And I must give that recipe a try!

Melis,

This post was good enough to eat! What gorgeous images you displayed, then a lovely catch up with you at home and then a yummy recipe, mmm..

Funnily enough, just heard a while ago that our local supermarket had pumpkins in stock and my family are gone to get some!! So soup and bakes on the menu

As always, thank you xx

You've got me all excited for fall! Your cards are just lovely and I adore how you present all your yummy goodies! It finally feels like fall here, the wind is blowing today and the gorgeous leaves are finally leaving their branches...which means the yards look like fun to dive into for all the neighborhood kids! I just might join them! I would so love to sit a spell with you on your porch and enjoy all your (I'm sure) gorgeous fall decorations!
Crafty Hugs,
