Lawn Fawnatics Challenge 38 – Awesome Autumn

- Nancy Krueger 17 Comments

It’s that time of year when the air turns crisp with a welcome chill, the leaves change color, pumpkin spice is everywhere and you can start wearing your favorite sweaters! That’s right, it’s Autumn! Even in Southern California there is a change in the air that tells us Fall is here! For our new challenge, let’s celebrate this happy time of year! Share with us your Fall-themed, Halloween and Thanksgiving cards and projects featuring Lawn Fawn products!
For each challenge, we will randomly select a winner to receive a $25.00 gift certificate to the Lawn Fawn shop! We will also be highlighting a few of your fabulous projects at the close of each challenge! By linking your projects to our challenges you will give permission for us to post your work to this blog and our social media sites. Check out the How to Play page for a few guidelines to play along. We want this to be FUN so we’ll keep the rules to just a few!

Let’s see how our amazing Design Team was inspired by this challenge!

Everybody loves a funny pun so Samantha M combined Spooktacular, Plane and Simple and Harold’s ABCs to create this punny charmer! The colorful background is so beautiful!

Samantha C created a sweet and spooky Halloween scene with some non-Halloween sets! She started with the house from Frosty Fairy Friends, the cute little critters from Coaster Critters and accessories from Holiday Party Animal then she added spooky ghosts and bats from Happy Haunting!

Karin colored the forest critters from Into the Woods and created a pretty Fall backdrop for them! The sweet Fall sentiment is also from Into the Woods! Some colorful leaves from Jump for Joy complete this clean and simple design!

Franci decorated a Scalloped Treat Box with adorable images from Costume Party! She included the cute little speech bubble from Cheery Christmas!

Jessica started with Knit Picky Fall papers to create a warm background for her Happy Fall design! She included fun Autumn themes of pumpkins and apples using Pick of the Patch and Thanks a Bushel! The cute bunny is from our Some Bunny set!

Christy‘s Jump for Joy card is filled with Fall color and a clever interactive twist…

…lift the pile of leaves for a sweet critter surprise! The cute little fox and owl are found in our Mom+Me set!

Joyce set the scene using Leafy Tree Backdrop and a beautiful ink blended sky! Her cute Autumn card features Happy Howloween and Jump for Joy!

We will have Design Team inspiration for you over the next two weeks and of course our Featured Fawnatics and Random Winner for Challenge 37 tomorrow!

Our amazing Design Team has made some fabulous cards to inspire you!

Samantha C. got really clever creating a cute Hang in There sloth scene with our Outside In Stitched Apple Stackables! She used the coordinating Stitched Apple Frames to finish the fun apple frame! Jump for Joy leaves and Critters in the Forest mushrooms add to the warm Fall theme!

Karin‘s Jump for Joy critters are enjoying a pile of leaves in Fall colors! How cool is that subtle cloudy background!

Joyce created a beautiful Autumn scene with cute images from Happy Harvest! The cute white rabbit from Some Bunny looks right at home with the sunflowers and pumpkins!

Samantha M was inspired by the top left image in the mood board to make this gorgeous watercolor gem! She used Distress Oxide inks to add color to the Stitched Leaves and to the background! She did some selective inking to create the sweet down home greeting using the sentiments in the new set Thanks a Latte!

Christy‘s happy little scene features Jump for Joy leaves with the cute little squirrels from Cheery Christmas! She framed the little scene with a Scalloped Circle!

Jessica filled her full-card shaker with leaves, sequins and beads in Fall colors to give the look of falling leaves! She set the scene with Leafy Tree Backdrop die cut from Knock on Wood 6×6 papers!

Franci‘s card is so whimsical and fun! It’s a clean and simple design with cute little apples from Thanks a Bushel! The tiny faces on the apples adds so much whimsy!

Jenn‘s cute Double Slider Surprise card features critters from Pick of the Patch and So Owlsome! The cute scene is filled with color from the Knit Picky Fall background!

This fun interactive card extends when you pull the tabs to reveal an additional scene and a sentiment on the hidden slider panels! To see how to make a Double Slider Surprise card check out the product intro video by Kelly Marie Alvarez HERE.

We will have Design Team inspiration for you over the next two weeks and of course our Featured Fawnatics and Random Winner for Challenge 35 tomorrow!
