After a busy morning of stamping we took a break for lunch.
We decorated the tables with a fall theme.
Check out the napkin rings. We used some of the Tangelo Twist Striped Cotton Ribbon as the ring and attached an acorn which was punched out of the Kraft Corrugated Paper with the Acorn Builder Punch and adorned with some Linen Thread.
Next we decorated a mason jar mug with some Burlap Ribbon, Fall leaves die cut from the Leaflet Framelits and finished them off with some Linen Thread and a clothespin. Everyone got to take the mug home with them.
For lunch we served two soups, ham and turkey sandwiches…
…apple cider…
…and pumpkin bars.
When everyone returned from lunch and back for another round of stamping they each found a basket (made from the Berry Basket Die) filled with an afternoon snack of peanuts. Check out the embellishment on the basket. It says “Nuts about you”.
We played a couple of games. Guess how many Washi Tape Rolls are in the jar. There were 36!
Then there was time for swapping. Everyone that chose to participate in the card swap exchange also got their card entered in the card contest. Check out the beautiful cards our stampers created for the contest:
And the winners were….
Maxine , who won the Cottage Greetings Card Kit and Sharon who won the Oh What Fun Tag Project Kit.
This was Sharon’s Frist Place card.
Here’s the inside, isn’t it beautiful?
And this is Maxine’s stunning creation that came in second place.
Well, believe it or not, we’re not even half way through Fall Fest! that’s right I’ve got lots more to share with you so come back tomorrow for more stamping projects.
When I’m all done sharing Fall Fest Retreat with you, I’ll be sharing how you can make this stunning Winter Wishes Framed Art project.
I love Sharon's folded card, and would love to have the measurements/score lines. Can you email them to me?

Donna, I'm sorry but I don't have the measurements for Sharon's card. I'll ask if she'll share them with me and if so, I'll post them back here for everyone to see.
