    I adore Autumn. I love the colurs of the leaves and that brisk chill that sends you to the long skirts and tights drawer. But my MOST favourite thing is watching the skiens of geese flying across the sky. I just find that magical.

  2. kaita says:

    My favorite thing about autumn is walking through the woods and shuffling through the wonderful colored leafes on the ground with my feet.

  3. Vickie Kertz says:

    I love the colors of Autumn. I am always partial to olive green and then when you throw in golds and oranges. The trees and shades of colors that time of year are just beautiful.

  4. Debbie says:

  10. Jennifer B. says:

    I love the beautiful colors of Autumn, the smells and the cooler temperatures.

  11. Sandi Dailey says:

    What is there NOT to love about Autumn. My very favorite season of the year. Yes, it rains — but the very best thing: campfires. I love the smell of burning leaves. You really enjoy the fire because it is crisp weather and it gets dark sooner so the campfire leads to friends sitting around the fire and telling stories. I could write a book on this, but I’m only suppose to leave a comment. Hugs, and totally love your blog Michelle — you’re my kind of stamper!

  13. I love the colours of the leaves all golden and bronze they look so beautiful. This winter is special as I have my 20 monthold grandaughter to share it with, She just loves walking in the leaves and puddles with her new pink sparkly wellingtons.
    Thank you for all your inspiration and for a chance to win such a lovely prize. Hugs x

  14. cat gondek says:

    I love the colors of fall. I have more fall paper and fall stamp pads and fall stamps than any other season even though I probably make more Christmas and summer cards. The deep oranges and reds and yellows just speak to me in a way other colors don’t. It is kind of like summer’s last hurrah before the cold of winter sets in.

  15. Sharona says:

    I love the colors of Fall. I love to look at a sea of tress in the fall. The changing colors are absolutely breath taking. I lived in a warm, mild climate for 8 years and missed the changing of summer to fall. So glad to see it again.

  16. Karen from Ontario says:

    I think I have to say that my favourite thing about Fall is the colour. Colour all around us and that refreshing crispness in the air.

  17. Linda Vogt says:

    My favorite thing about autumn is the trees. When I sit at my desk, there are two trees right outside my window that just glow in the sunlight. I miss it now that the leaves have dropped! Love that stamp set, hope I’m the lucky one! :-)

  18. rose from NY says:

    love the fall stamps. perfect for fall

  23. Crystal says:

    Living in the Mid-West I take the beautiful fall colors for granted. My niece and nephew visited from Florida and were amazed with the colors. I saw everything with a new sense of appreciation watching them! I love the crunch of leaves, the smell of a fire place to keep the house warm, the smell of baking bread and comfort food to sustain us in the cooler weather.

  24. Christy Q says:

    My favorite thing about autumn is the smell of fireplaces burning in the neighborhood while I’m walking the dog, seeing the glorious sunsets as I’m coming home on the train, and the beautiful foliage as the leaves change.

  25. Patti M says:

    Autumn = sunsets, fall leaf colors, cool crisp weather. What’s not to love?!

    That’s a hard one but I guess it would be the color…..everywhere! I love a drive in the country at peak leaf season to just drink it all in. God is so good to us! Would love to win those leaf stamps!

    My favorite part of Autumn is our weekend day trips to enjoy the color!

    Thanks, Michelle!

  41. Karen King says:

    Fall in the Maritimes only rivals spring. I don’t know if I love the beautiful colors of fall or the lush greens of spring. I think I am more inspired by the colors but the green grass after a long hard winter does wonders for the spirit! Thank you for all you inspirational cards and ideas.

  42. Roxie says:

    I love going on our annual weekend color tour, taking the back roads and finding little scenic turnouts just perfect for picnics. Spectacular!!

  46. Diane H. says:

    I guess the child in me comes out in autumn. I have always

    and just collecting pretty ones. Love those stamps, too!
    Thanks! Diane H.

  48. Peggy Maier says:

    I love fall because it’s a reminder of God’s goodness to us… His provision for our every need. We don’t get much fall in this part of the country, but when it does linger (like this year), it’s an extra-special blessing.

  49. Sheryl N says:

    Even more than the beautiful colors of the leaves here in Michigan, I love when the trees shed their leaves and make magical shadows on the bare crunchy ground, and the smells, ummmmmmm. Would love to try out this stamp set!! Thanks for the chance at blog candy, Sheryl N.

  68. Dee says:

    Now that I live in Florida, I miss the Fall colors when we lived in New Hampshire. Our first fall in New Hampshire was the most memorable because all the trees were beautifully colored in shades of golds and red . . . one being more beautiful than the other. Thanks for the opportunity to win!

  69. csalt47 says:

    The clear, crisp, cool air mixed with the warmth of the autumn sun and the golden reds and glorious golds of the trees, it just doesn’t get any better than that. Now raking up all those leaves after they fall … well that’s another story.

    Autumn is such a gorgeous time of year! It reminds me that God paints a picture for us to enjoy every day in nature, but we fail to stop long enough to see it. The vibrant colors of the fall leaves looks like he has poured out his paint pallette all over the world for all of us to see and enjoy. Fall is a time of thankfullness, hay rides, cool mornings and sunny afternoons. God’s love and art is all around us!

    I love the colours, the change in weather and best of all I get to start Christmas shopping!!

  92. Sandy Andersen says:

    There is so much to love about autumn, the lovely colored trees, the crunch of the leaves under your feet on a fall walk, the crisp fall air, the wonderful variety of fall apples that we are lucky to have here in Minnesota. The only thing not magical about fall is the endless raking, but then that helps to make the first snowfall a welcome sight. Sandy Andersen

  93. Davi says:

    Here in the desert we have extreme heat in the summers so when autumn finally arrives its such a blessing.

Thanks for th opportunity to win that beautiful set of leaves. :)

  96. Pam Browne says:

    I just love this stamp set! My favorite things about autumn are the cooler, crisper temperatures and the colors of the foliage and harvest vegetables. I grew up in Maine, so fall was known as “sweater weather”. You didn’t have to bundle up as you did for the winter, but you needed something to keep you warm. I loved taking rides to view the foliage. With the mountains in that area, nature’s display was always breathtaking. I loved to go with my mother to pick bittersweet to decorate the house with. After I moved here (Virginia) I looked forward to going to Williamsburg and having hot cider and gingerbread cookies as we walked the old city and checked out the Christmas decorations. … mmmm, such nice memories.

  97. Laura Turner says:

    My favorite thing about autumn is the cooler temperatures with the crispness in the air. It’s so lovely after the heat and humidity of summer.

    I love the crisp, cool mornings of Autumn. I live in the upper Mojave desert of California, where we have 110-115 degree temps in August.

    Love leaves, and love that set…. my gosh the possibilities…. you are making me drool
    kathleen

  131. Carin O says:

    It is my favorite season… I think it is the cozy feeling of getting out the cold weather clothes & cuddling up under a blanket. In northern Michigan it is a good excuse to stop doing yard work too. Also, Thanksgiving is a favorite holiday.

  132. I love autumn! I love the smell of burning leaves, the crunch underfoot when walking through them, the pumpkin spice lattes at Starbucks, the crisp cool air with the hint of winter to come, and of course, hot apple cider! I love the fall colors and frosty mornings. I’m a winter person, but fall is a close second! Thanks for the chance to win; I love your creations!

  133. I love the smells and colors of Autumn. It brings back childhood memories of piling the leaves as high as we could get them so that we could run and jump into the large pile just to go rake them back up again and do it over, and over, and over again. It’s the smell of the leaves burning on a crispy autumn day of families together and I try to recreate that some memory with my grand children. It’s a good thing….It’s a family together memory………it’s a child hood memory

  134. Patty says:

    Ditto, ditto ditto. I love this time of year and THIS STAMP. In our part of Texas we don’t always get a lot of color in the fall but had good rains this year and it is beautiful and not over 100. yea!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Have a blessed Thanksgiving and safe travels.

  135. Heather says:

    Autumn is my favorite time of year! I love the colors, the food, but most of all, the cooler weather! Plus there is the promise of SNOW to come!

  136. rokale says:

    love the stamp candy! My favourite things about fall are of course the colours of the trees but also the calmness that comes after summer, the smells of the forest (we live in the woods), the brilliance of the night sky and the last blast of Indian Summer before winter sets in.

  137. mitzi says:

    I love fall because of the colors and the weather. I love wearing sweaters, looking at the beautiful leaves and I absolutely love this stamp set. I used it last weekend and made some beautiful greeting cards and scrapbook pages. I love, love, love this stamp set!!!!!!!

  138. Robin H. says:

    Fall is my favorite season, as we finally get some relief from the heat and humidity of the summer here in NC. I love to sit on my front porch and watch all the beautifully colored dancing leaves as they float through the air. My favorite tree in our yard is a red maple with the most gorgeous leaves that are so red they seem to almost glow. I love to stand under it and just look up through all that glorious color.

    Thanks for the chance to win this great fall set.

  139. Lori says:

    Oh, i LOVE leaves! This is a gorgeous set and i’d love to get it. We have some great trees over here in the NW and and i love to look at them, and press them for our Campfire Kids group.
    I hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving!
    ~hugs

  142. Jen says:

    My favorite thing about Autumn is going out to the apple orchard and picking apples, then making apple pies. Mmmm.

    Barbara Diane

  144. Loes says:

    Autumn is a beautiful part of the year. When I look at the back of our house you can see different colors of leaves on the trees and also on the ground. I love the trees with the changing colors, in one word: BEAUTIFUL!!!!!

  145. Carole says:

    What wonderfu blog candy! Thanks for giving us a chance.
    I adore autumn for many reasons – the colors, as many have said, the crispness in the air, the leaves and other assorted foilage that changes this time of year.
    But what I love most of all is that every year it is all of those constants in nature that remind me that what I have to be most thankful for is a loving God who brings all of these things (and more) to pass in their time and season.
    many blessings to you and yours for a wonderful holiday season!

  146. crystle k. says:

    What do i love about Autumn is that the kids are back in school which means i can get more stamping done. The colors of the season are so pretty and the air is so crisp and fresh. I just love everything about Autumn and i love this set. Best of all i love your blog. Keep up the great work and have a Happy Thanksgiving and a wonderful Autumn.

  147. Anne Stacy says:

    I love all the fall colors!

  148. Lynn says:

    My only fault with Autumn is it is SO short. I love going outside without being pestered by bugs, and wearing only a light sweater/jacket – I love the colours on the hillside across the highway from my house – love the crisp sweet smelling air. I just love Autumn.
    Lynn

  149. It wasn’t until I saw all the beautiful projects you created that I even liked the set. Now, I would LOVE to have the set so I can try to imitate you! Hope I win! Thanks for sharing!

  150. Hèlene Tardif says:

    I Love autumn because the colors are very interesting.

  151. Peggy Parenteau says:

    I love the autumn colors–they inspire some fun cards, the sound of walking thru crisp leaves and leaf stamps. I have many, but am always drawn to them. Keep up your wonderful inspirations! Happy Thanksgiving.

  152. rachel shannon says:

    The many splendid colors of leaves. My whole house is colored Autumn. Will you ever publish a book of your work and tutorials?

  153. Lori A-O says:

    Autumn is a wonderful time of year, with only one drawback here in MN, WINTER is upon us, arghhh…….Love the leaf set from SU, please sign me up….thank you for all the wonderful tutorials, what an inspiration they are. Have a great weekend.

  154. JaneAnn says:

    The things I like best about Fall are the crisp morning air, the colors of the leaves, and the smell of fallen leaves. I always walk through the fallen leaves to stir up leaf dust. Fall is a peaceful time of the year for me.

  155. liz says:

    I love the smell and the wonderful pictures to be taken, then scrapbooked!

  156. julie says:

    We don’t have much of a fall in south Texas, but I do enjoy the cool, dry weather when it does show up occasionally. :)

  157. Barbara Lemme says:

    My favorite thing about Autumn is being to stamp beautiful leaves that I remember from living in the East but now not having to rake them as we live in the AZ desert.

  158. Annette says:

    I would love to use this stamp set to show the beautiful autumn we have in our country. Living in the northeast, we really have it here. I would love to win this set and play some more!! Thanks for the chance.

  159. Amy Reed says:

    Weenie roasts! We have one every two weeks or so at my house every fall. We love to build a fire in the fire pit outside, bundle up, and roast away!

  160. Dawn M says:

    Living in Michigan, fall is my favorite time of year. The air is crisp and the leaves are absolutely beautiful. I love driving passed the pumpkin patches, going the a cider mill and getting some yummy cider and donuts. There is nothing like fall. I love it.

  161. freida says:

    Ohhh what FABULOUS candy! Thanks for a chance to win! :) I love the weather that fall brings, and of course the gradual changing of the leaves’ colors. I LOVE to photograph my Dogwood intermittently just to capture such a huge range of colors! The mountains remind me of God’s masterful work with His paintbrush! :) What a site to behold!

  162. Niki says:

    OH! What great “candy,” Michelle! Thank you for offering it! This set is at the top of my DROOL list!! EVERYTHING about autumn is my favorite…the colors, the smells, the memories of leaves crackling beneath my horse’s hooves…even the sunlight is somehow different! This set and the matching designer paper totally evoke all these things!

  163. Dawn says:

    I love the smell of the crisp air and wet leaves. Fall smells so earthy :)
    Dawn

    So love these leaves… they are so very versatile. Autumn is such a beautiful time of year. Brings so many memories of walking through piles of leaves. Thanks so much for all you share with us.

  169. kim says:

    I am from Canada- so autumn is all about the colours and the crunching of leaves when walking on them. Also seeing my dog running through the leaves- she wants them racked into a pile first increases hers and my entertainment.

  170. Kathy Kennedy says:

    I love this set and best of all a chance to win it. Please enter me for the drawing and thank you so much for sharing your tutiorials with us all!

  172. Alison says:

    Love the leaves changing……….but not so fond of all the rain………
    Hoping for the blog candy….with all the rain it allows for alot of stamping.

  173. My favorite thing about autumn is the color changing of the leaves! I live in CA so
    I don’t get to see it much, but when I was in WI in the Northwoods last year, it was amazing! Hope I get to win this time.

  174. Paula says:

    Great set, have a nice trip!

  175. sheila k. lowry says:

    Can’t wait to see what you are going to do with this stamp set Michelle. Thanks for all you teach me!

  179. Melissa says:

    I grew up loving the warm days and cool night that come with the change from summer to autumn. Now I love the colors and how insiring they are.

  180. Adele in Las Vegas says:

    Living in Las Vegas, we do not get a tremndous change in seasons. But, the cooler weather is a wonderful change. When we lived in New York, I loved the different colors EVERYWHERE! I LOVED watching my kids rake leaves just so they could jump in them and roll around and laugh and lagh and laugh. Michelle, I appreciate all you do to inspire us! What a great way to start the day with a dose of Zindorf Splendor!

  181. Sandy says:

    One day my wish will come true and you will be around Louisville or owensburg anr I will be able to go to one of your classes!!!Love your work.

  182. NH Mary says:

    I love the changing in the colors of the leaves. Years ago when we could burn our leaves after raking them the smell was so enjoyable and relaxing. That I miss.
    Mary

  183. Carole Miller says:

    I love Autumn because of all the colors of the leaves, and the smell of drying leaves, and the fires when leaves are burning. Autumn is one of my most favorite times of the year.

  184. Janet says:

    I love Autumn….I live Autumn all year long in COLOR! Every room in my home is fall colors, golds, browns, deep yellows, reds….. The candles in my home are fall scents. I take more pictures in the fall, scrapbook more in the fall and make more cards in the fall. I could have Autumn all year long. I LOVE Autumn!

  185. Michelle:
    This is an EASY one for me. For the past 4 years my hubs, daughters, grandson, parents and sis have all gone away for Thanksgiving. We start looking early in August for a cabin in the woods near water so we can spend 4 to 7 days together for our Thanksgiving holidays. We’ve spent two Thanksgivings in cabins in Oklahoma and two Thanksgivings in Texas. We are staying in Texas again this year in between the towns of Grand Saline and Mineola. We gather for family, food and fun! We spend time playing games, eating holiday meal and leftovers and visiting scenic sites wherever we stay. The fall color is always a warm welcome to all of us and we simply emjoy being together. We are “Thankful” that Daddy survived his 5 bypasses in August of 2007. We are “Thankful” that aged 81 and 78 both Mom and Dad are still able to make the trip up here from south Louisiana. We are “Thankful” for our children and grandson being happy and healthy and with us too. We are “Thankful” that my sis is healthy and able to drive up from south Texas and spend this week with us too. We are “Thankful” that my hibs and I have been married for 30+ years and we are still happy and healthy (for the most part) together.
    I LOVE this time of year. Yes it is the time when all the green things are dying or going dormant for the winter. But in that change is the promise that in the Spring, it will all come back new and beautiful again.
    Thanks for the opp. to win some free stuff.

  186. wendy says:

    To me, autumn brings peace…a chance for quiet to slip back into my world.

  189. Nina Babcock says:

    I have this stamp set and I have to agree this is a favorite. So much so I would like to give it as a gift if I win. Please enter my name for the drawing. My favorite thing about autumn is walking in the woods……there is just nothing like the rustling of the leaves and the crisp sent of the woods and the air. Just makes a person feel warm and relaxed, ready to meet whatever, with a refreshness in the spirit! Keep up the tutorials! They are marvelous!

  190. Nancy Dawson says:

    Naturally the beauiful array of colors that autumn paints across the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia! Such a gorgeous canvas and we live right in the middle! (Central Virginia) I love the Autumn Splendor set as well; it is so versatile. Thanks for a chance to win.

  191. Lori says:

    I love autumn colors and the smell of fall. I find myself driving down the road looking at the trees and wondering what inks I would use to try to recreate the beautiful color!

  192. Lisa B says:

    I love this set! I draw so much inspiration from your blog, and can’t wait to take one of your brayer classes this coming year. Thanks for the opportunity to win this beautiful set..

    Lisa

  193. Nancy says:

    Hi Michelle -

    Here in South Florida, we don’t really get an autumn. But I miss seeing the leaves turn and the smell of them in the air and the sound of them crunching underfoot. I love this stamp set, too!

    thanks
    Nancy

  194. Stacy says:

    My favorite thing about autumn is color of leaves. Our maple tree out front was a gorgeous red/burgundy this year. Our neighbor had a tree with yellow leaves that seemed to glow – beautiful! Love this set of stamps!

  195. Susan says:

    Crisp clean air, then smells, then colors, then the feeling of snuggling down in anticipation of a winter’s quiet.

  196. I love this stamp set, thanks for the chance to win it! I love the colours and the decorations that go with fall, plus it’s also when my birthday is! Too bad fall’s so short. Here in Canada, people are getting ready for Christmas about now- our thanksgiving was in October.
    I don’t know why, but I absolutely love doing things with leaves. They’re my favourite accent for just about anything!

  197. Christina D says:

    My fav thing about Fall is the colors changing on the trees, and it finally cooling off. Plus the kids go back to school! I love the set and I’ve see some beautiful cards done with it.

  198. Kathy M says:

    What I love about Autumn is leaving my home in NNY where it is usually cold and rainy (or snowy) and heading to my winter home in sunny Florida!!! I do like this stamp set and don’t have it, so thanks for the chance to win it!

  199. Sue Virtue says:

    My favorite thing about autumn is the gorgeous colors on the trees. There are so many things I love about it though – the crisp cool air, the sound of dry leaves crunching under your feet, watching squirrels as they prepare for winter, the smell of burning leaves – it’s my favorite season of all!

    I love this stamp set. Thanks for the chance to win it!!! Happy Autumn!

  200. lisa808 says:

    My favorite thing about Autumn is seeing the sun shining on the beautiful foliage.

    Brilliant fall colors–yellow, amber, rust, olive, brown—all shades
    Memories of Thanksgiving

  203. Sarah says:

    My favorite thing about Autumn is definitely the colors changing. I also love the transition from hot summer days to the cool, crisp air. Thanks so much for the chance to win this gorgeous stamp set!

  204. Jane says:

    What a lovely set of leaves! And look how many people think the same thing!!!
    Favorite thing about fall? That’s easy. I love how the light changes as it lays across the landscape; I love the smell of the earth and the way the leaves smell as they turn colors and begin to fall. I especially love the warmth of the sunlight with just the hint of coolness in the breeze.

  205. Kim says:

    Everything – the cooler days, the fall colors, the decorations, the baking on rainy days, mums, the driving in the country with my husband just to look at the trees….

    It would probably be easier to list the things about fall I don’t like – actually I can’t think of anything right now.

  206. StampinLDRN says:

    I love the colors of fall. The blazing reds, bursting oranges, and brilliant yellows. They make the hills look alive! The scents of the fires burning in fireplaces in the area. Cool crisp days with bright sunshine. The hint of what is yet to come.

  207. karen adams says:

    I would really enjoy using this set of leaves. Fall is my favorite season ; I love the color and richness of it all.

  208. peg says:

    I love everything about fall, the smells, colors, the sound of crunching leaves, cooler temperatures, the end of summer.

  209. Liza says:

    Autumn – God’s masterpiece of watercolors! I love seeing all the beauty of turning leaves, and here in the South, is a true blessing to view.

  210. Helena says:

    Michelle,

    I love the changing season of fall, especially the colors. Love this stamp set, and the card you made with it. Would be excited to win this set.

    Helena

  211. kathy says:

    OMG! I love this stamp set! My fav thing about autumn is the lovely colors that tint the leaves before they fall off the trees.

  212. Kim Stark says:

    My most vivid memory was just last fall as a friend and I journeyed to Seattle for teh weekend in late Oct. All the trees were shades off gold/orange and red. We crossed over a bridge that look sand feels liek it is floating on teh water and all teh trees on the hills were reflecting onto teh water so you got a mirrors image. It was truly breathtaking. Since I live in Vancouver you need to embrace the rain -fall is also best because I love bundling up and having an excuse to wear my uggs everywhere
    Kim

  213. Terry says:

    Has to be the beautiful colors and the approaching Holidays!! Have a Happy Thanksgiving!

  215. Jayne says:

    Hi, Michelle,
    I really enjoy the gorgeous colors of Fall. Around here in Maryland, when the sun is shining, it almost looks like the trees are on fire! Of course, the crisp days and cool nights are wonderful, too. Thanks for the chance to win this set. It’s been on my wish list since the mini came out.

    Jayne

  216. cher says:

    Hi ! Safe travels to you! Autumn is my fav too! Mostly because of the color changes here in MI but also because I begin counting days till I see my kids at the holidays…they are at college so I cannot tell you how much I miss them, but guessing you know! Thanks for the chance..wish I was at your MI workshop! Please have a great holiday! Cher

  217. Jane O'Leary says:

  218. Lillian Child says:

    The rich amber colors, a chilly nip in the air, everything pumpkin, crockpots steaming with hearty soups/chowders, and the kickoff of my favorite holiday season! And all of my favorite orchards (with apples, peaches, squash and fresh corn) are just a country mile drive away.

  219. annie says:

    I love the crispness of fall weather.

  220. Toni Jackson says:

  222. Marilyn says:

    For me, autumn is my favorite season! The leaves are beautiful and it’s smell very good! It’s the time too to walk in the wood with my boyfriend and Shiraz my dog. I like when the wind is a little bit cold and my cheeks are little bit red! After that, my boyfriend takes me in his arms. I like that! :) Thank you Michelle!

  223. Annelies says:

    Oh yes! Autumn Splendor as well as the fall itself is my favorite!

  226. Deirdre says:

  230. Jeneen says:

    Hi Michelle, love your blog! My favorite season is Fall. Love the colors, the smells, the crispness of the air. It’s so nice to be able to wear jeans and maybe a sweatshirt, but you’re not having to bundle up against the really cold weather.

  231. Jackie says:

    I love the colors of the leaves and the cool crisp air. In the olden times I loved raking and burning the leaves, but we can’t do that now. There’s nothing better than a sunny, cool, crisp fall day in jeans and a sweatshirt. Jackie

  232. Cheryl Williams says:

    Hi Michelle, I love your blog…..Look forward to it everyday. My favorite season of the year is autumn. The colors are so beautiful. Just wish it could last all winter long.

    My favorite thing about fall is the crisp weather, blue skies, colorful trees, and a bonfire! Yum!

  234. Charlene says:

    I love the colors of autumn, and a slight chill in the air (I live in California). Our autumns are not has colorful has the states that have snow, but this time of year drums up childhood memories.

  235. Cheryl says:

    The smell in the air and the colors…nothing compares!

  236. StampinCathy says:

    The holidays that follow.
    Thanks for a chance at this sweeeeet candy.

  237. Tammi says:

    Autumn is my absolute favorite time of year. It’s the crisp air but warm sunshine. It’s the time of year I celebrate my wedding anniversary.

    I love harvest time! It’s the time of year that you reap the fruits of your labor. Hearing the combines run, the trators roar and the grain rattling it ways into storage bins is like no other. It’s during this time of year supper is delivered and served in the fields. Every night is like another picnic!

    What a wonderful time to spread the spirit of Thanksgiving.

  238. KER says:

    I love the chill in the air and a turkey dinner with all the fixins’ and family and friends spending time together.

  239. KER says:

    oh and chestnuts are out then too

  240. Mary Beth says:

    In south Florida, we don’t have much in the way of a change of seasons, it’s endless summer here. So all fall pictures, projects, decor, stamp stuff, etc. are most welcome!

  241. Nancy Freeman says:

    This has to be one of the most amazing sets I’ve seen in a long time. I can think of a zillion ways to use those stamps! (Many of them inspired by YOU!) I’ll keep my fingers crossed!

    Nancy

  242. Kay says:

    Hmmm….autumn is not my most favorite (because I deplore cold weather, and in my mind, I know autumn means it’s gonna get cold!) …but the colors of the season are beyond beautiful. I wish I could blend colors like God does at this time of the year!
    Thanks for the inspiration with your beautiful creations! Kay

  243. Jill Wagner says:

    I love the smell of leaves; whether they are being raked in a pile or burned in the garden – Yes! We can still burn leaves in our small Illinois village. I remember the smell of burning leaves as a child and it is a scent that brings back so many memories! We would rake the leaves; jump in the pile; rake again and finally deliver the leaves to the burn pile in large blankets that dad kept in the garage just for carrying leaves. The air was crisp and we could run and play without getting sweaty. As we grew older, Dad would let us tend the fire and we would burn every last vestive of leaf until there were only ashes left. I cannot smell burning leaves this day without immediately going back in past! I love autumn!
    Jill

  244. Debby says:

    Autumn – the most delightful time of the year! Thanks for offering such a wonderful set, it will be so versatile! Love your work Michelle!

  245. Karen says:

    Michelle,
    I love the smell of chimmneys, the cool crisp air, and most of all my birthday is in the fall–November 22nd!

  246. Judy Covey says:

    My very favorite thing about autumn is when the MacIntosh apples are ready and I can make my first apple pie of the season. In my mind, there is nothing better than a fresh tart apple pie, yum! I love the Autumn Splendor stamp set, the leaves are very different from any leaves that I already have. Sure would love to win this set!

  247. Denise says:

    I love the drives through the mountains here in Pennsylvania to see the beautiful fall leaves turn their rich, royal colors. And all the Fall craft shows. smile.

    Aaaaahhhhh fall! The sound of a football game at the high school, the smell of the earth winding down, the joy of harvesting and putting up the garden’s wealth, the bite of the pre-winter wind, the frostiness of one’s breath, the crunch of the frozen earth, the gold of the sun filtering through the changing leaves, and the shower of the needles as the tameracks shed their leaves. Fall.

  287. Karen McAlpine says:

  300. Lee says:

    AHHHH Autumn Splendor! I love this time of year sooo much. I had my senior pix taken this time of year many moons ago just for the colors and feel of the air. It still is my ultimate favorite time of year, the colors, weather and general feel of getting back into crafting.

  301. Megan NZ says:

    leaves leaves leaves. I love the leaves colour, sound when you stand on them, watching them fall anything about leaves I love. please enter me

  302. Fall means exactly that. Fall into that pile of leaves you just raked. Fall into your favorite Holiday routines. Fall back with the stupid time change. Fall down on your b*** while walking across the ice and snow. But just think fall spelled backward is llaf (laugh)! So just remember as the days get shorter and we slip and slide while out grocery shopping for our favorite holidays, or we spend hours raking leaves only to have the wind take them over to the neighbors yard…..don’t forget to llaf.

  303. Brenda H. says:

    Autumn is my favorite time of year and it is because of the smell in the air and all the spendid colors! I love that stamp set and don’t have it so would love some blog candy!! Thanks for sharing your techniques!

  307. Judy McMullen says:

    Autumn has always been my favorite time of the year. I always associated new beginnings with Autumn with the start of the new school year, new clothes, making new friends! Most of my life I lived in the Pacific NW and I loved the bright colors of the changing leave contrasted to the deep rich green of giant fir trees and brilliant blue skies! Now that I live in the Arizona desert I like Autumn for the cooler temps! Thanks for the opportunity to win this beautiful stamp set! Love it!!!

  308. Connie S. says:

    I love Autumn as much as I love the Winter time. You know winter will be soon after. I love to go up north in MI at my parents cabin on the lake. The colors of all the trees are so brilliant in colors. And the smell of wood burners and burning leafs brings back some good memories.

    Thank you for the chance to win this lovley stamp set.

  309. Denise in AZ says:

    My favorite thing about Autumn — is the fact that we no longer have 110 degree weather! It’s cooled down into the 70′s finally!

  310. Kimberly says:

    Just like sunsets and sunrises Autumn gives us a glimpse of gods artwork. Sometimes I am baffled at all the colors… knowing that in a short time with cooler weather we will be on to another canvas from Him.

  311. Becky says:

    My favorite thing about autumn is the beautiful colors God has created for us. I also enjoy eating the autumn foods such as sweet potatoes, pumpkin anything, and pumpkin spice cappucino. YUMMMMM.

    My favorite thing about autumn is the beautiful colors. All the colors blend in to prize winning art!

  314. Linda w says:

    The most memorable thing about autumn would have to be the colors. I look at a tree and see all the color, texture, and depth and I know that there is no way I could copy that splendor. Just looking at all the shading and color variations on a single tree makes me appreciate the beauty of nature. I have to take those memories with me to carry me through the long winter ahead.

    thanks much

  315. laura says:

    well who doesn’t like anything to do with leaves, trees and nature. I shall throw my name into that random number generated hat for this one.

  316. Love the fall !!!! All the leaves falling – here in south Louisiana we have a lot
    of Cypress trees – I even have one in my backyard….yes, they have to be
    raked – but it is still so beautiful – even with the trees barren ! Nature is
    everywhere…………love this new SU stamp set and would be thrilled to have
    it…………………..

I also hate shorts…hate winter jackets. With Autumn you just need a sweater…what a wonderful season..it has always been my favorite!

  320. Autumn……in the pacific NW it isn’t as beautiful as the east but it still is a fun time of year. Oregon has mostly soggy leaves but on those sunny days when the wind is lightly blowing, my woods ‘snows’ leaves and it is so beautiful! Of all the stamps in my collection, flowers and leaves top the list. I love this set….thanks for the opportunity to win!

    Michelle,

    Have a Wonderful Thanksgiving and do what most of us seem to do….Gobble until you wobble and have a Great Thanksgiving!

  326. Cynthia says:

    My favourite thing about Autumn is watching my kids (and all the others from the neighbourhood) rake up piles of leaves and then go jumping into them. They go door-to-door, asking the neighbours if they can rake their leaves for them….then they gather up all the leaves from close-by properties, make a massive pile, and all the kids from near and far have a blast. Autumn just wouldn’t be the same without the giggles and laughs of little kids as they enjoy this yearly tradition!

  327. sandyh50 says:

    Beautiful stamp set, Michelle! Thanks for the chance

  328. Sarita says:

  332. Debbie D says:

    WOW! What do I love about Autumn! The changing leaves, the falling leave, piling them up and jumping in, the clean yard afterwards. As if that isn’t enough there’s the beautiful bare trees resting to get ready for the fresh bloom in the Spring. The lighting of the wood stove and the smell of the wood burning, I love it all.

  333. Diana says:

    Wow this is nice …I love the smells and that back to school feeling and the colors changing ..its just my favorite time of year ..
    hugs Diana

  334. Donna Sappo says:

I love the vibrant colors of the trees. I love bringing out the heavy sweaters. I love watching the squirrels hide the acorns. I love all of the beauty of autumn that God has given us.

  335. Shirley Lee says:

    I love the colors of autumn. I love to take my walk amongst the gorgeous trees, and every day they change into another array of colors. Our house is all decorated in the fall colors starting in September: jolly scarecrows, cute pumpkins, bright colored leaves, etc. The air gets cooler, it starts to rain, and Thanksgiving is just around the corner. Yes, I have a lot of stamps for fall but not the set you are offering. Would love to win it! Thanks for being so generous! Happy Thanksgiving!

  337. Jacqui says:

    Sitting on a hill overlooking fields of green, orange, yellow and red. Sitting next to your loved ones, laughing and admiring the turning of the leaves.

    Your cards are beautiful! Thanks so much for sharing with us!

  338. Wendy L says:

    I love the smell in the air, the crunch of leaves beneath the feet and the colors of the maple trees. Autumn is a wonderful time of the year. Thanks for an opportunity to win.

  339. Janet Stringfellow says:

    This time of year is so beautiful with the colors. The best part this year is watching my new puppy jumping in the leaf piles and chasing them in the wind. Such joy a little one can make. I really enjoy making the fall stamps.

  340. Mary H says:

    I grew up on the east coast and loved the changing of colors!! We do not get that in southern CA, but when there is the nip in the air and the coolness of the breeze – it does bring it all back! Leaves are my absolute favorite – I don’t care where you live, colored leaves signify fall and the coming of the holidays!! Wishing you a very happy Thanksgiving.

  341. Cindy Stewart says:

    The colors are my favorite thing about Autumn… all those beautiful colors!

  346. Mo says:

    Thanks for the amazing blog candy. I love Autumn because of the smell of bonfires and early dusk and the amazing colours on the trees.

  347. Pam P says:

    The fall colors are my favorite, I am always amazed at all of the beautiful colors that I see every fall. There is nothing more beautiful that to look down a tree lined river and see all the beautiful colors, not only on the trees but also in the reflection of the water.

  348. Lynn says:

    Love Fall colors. They are never the same. The leaves are very crisp! Love seeing your new designs.

  351. Sharri says:

    I love this set but don’t have it. Fall is my favorite time of the year. I miss the colors that I got to see every year when I lived in the Midwest. California has color but nothing like the Midwest or New England. This set would get a lot of use at my house.

  352. Kathy Kunnemann says:

    I love Autumn. Being from south Florida, it means cooler temps, possibly in the 80′s. That’s “cooler” to we Floridians. The ocean breeze picks up and the smell of fresh, salty air is exhilarating. That is the time for long walks on the beach when your feet won’t burn in the sand; listening to the seagulls cry out. They even know when it’s Autumn. Happy Thanksgiving, Michelle!

    Kathy K.

    Wow, awesome candy. Yum! My favourite thing about autumn is that comfort feeling I get by wearing my warm sweaters. The leaves are turning colour, and it’s time to start my winter cooking. In Canada, we tend to have summer and winter cooking styles.

  357. Herlinda Henry says:

    It’s funny You should ask that question. I was just telling my Husband that I have come to the reality that Autumn is my favorite time of the year. I love the crisp smell, changing of the leaves to all sorts of colors and the fact that it is neither too hot or too cold!

  358. Jo Ann says:

  360. Sylvie Greeniaus says:

    Autumn is like the late evening when everything is getting ready to go to sleep. It’s a calming quiet time and I enjoy it immensly. Besides it’s a busy birthday time for us. Libra’s are such balanced people. A true joy! I love cooking and the fall is such a great time for that. The harvest reminds us of the upcomming hibernation!
    Happy Thanksgiving to all Americans! Our was a month ago and Christmas shopping is in full swing here!
    Cheers,

  367. Terri says:

    I love the colors of the leaves — on the trees and on the ground! We live in a very wooded area and the hills and trees are so beautiful!

  368. I love this stamp set. It would be so much fun to play with some chalk or markers and a bender pen on them. I can just see the color pop. You are such an inspiration!!!!

    Fall…this is my favorite time of year…I am very much for earth tones…and what better way to make cards than with trees, leaves and or acorns…so this set would fit right in with my thinking…or dreaming…again I say thank you Michelle for triggering my thoughts. Thanks for giving us all a chance to win this unique set.

  370. Carol says:

    Fall–I love it! The colors are spectacular. The smells are so fresh. The air is crisp. What’s not to love?
    I love this Autumn leaf set, too, Michelle. And please keep up the great work on your tutorials. I love them, too.

  371. laurel decker says:

    What DON’ T I like about leaves and fall, my very favorite time of year! Like a good mother, I cannot pick just ONE thing I like! I love going out and INHALING the fall smells, swishing my feet thru dry leaves, s’mores over a crackling fire, the BEAUTIFUL leaf colors, fall camping, wooly bears inching along, cider, fall farmers markets, Indian Corn, gourds, and the OHIO STATE/MICHIGAN game!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  372. Penny Meller says:

    I love the beauty of Autumn. The spectacular color of reds, yellows and oranges takes my breath away and God seems so close. I also enjoy the cooler days, pumpkin pie, apple cider, and the smell of spiced candles burning in my home.

  373. Sheri says:

    My favorite thing about fall is the vibrant colors, crisp smells, fall camping in our great outdoors, and the chance to try another one of your techniques! Thanks for sharing all your talents and ideas.

  374. Candi says:

    Thanks for the opportunity at your fantastic blog candy. My favorite thing(s) about autumn are like most others – the trees changing color, the smell of harvest and the change of season. And Thanksgiving – who can forget Thanksgiving! We have so much to be thankful for, don’t we? :)

  375. Jinny Boyce says:

    My favorite thing about Autumn: I love the changing colors of the leaves and the soft whisper they make as they flutter to the ground on a crisp day! I love the hear the chipmunks and squirrels rooting around for places to hide their nuts and gather leaves for their nests. Also, I love to feel the warm sun on a crisp day.

  376. Genie Stover says:

    I love the smell of autumn, the color changes of the trees and the crunch of the leaves after they fall.

  377. Toni Roldan says:

    That’s easy!! All the beautiful colors! The views can sometimes take my breath away :-)

  378. Jessalee says:

    I love the last card you did with this set and would love to win it. Thanks for the chance!!! Keep up the phenomenal work!

  379. Sallie says:

    I absolutely love the colors of Autumn. I also enjoy watching the leaves fly through the air as they fall from the trees. Autumn became my favorite season just a few years ago and I look forward to it every year!

  380. Joanne Lowe says:

    Hello,

    Thank you for the opportunity to win this great SU set, Michelle!

    My favorite part of autumn is taking a great walk and strolling through the crunchy leaves, plus I love looking at the vibrant colors of the leaves either when walking or taking a drive to see those leaves. I have great memories of going to my great grandmother’s house where she had some big oak trees in the front, and playing in piles of leaves that had fallen. I haven’t thought of that for decades! Thank you for giving me the opportunity to recall such a warm memory.

    Enjoy your weekend.

    Blessings,

    Joanne

  381. Elise G says:

    Blog candy, I love blog candy. And to combine blog candy and fall, too fab!! My favorite thing in the fall is to see all the crabapple trees after they have lost there leaves. The fruit is so beautiful on the bare trees. We had 50 cedar waxwings on our sugartyme crabapple just last weekend. So fun to sit and watch them sneak the berries and pass them back and forth before eatting them.

  382. Autumn is my favorite time of the year. When the leaves are changing they are so beautiful. It is a time where I reflect on what has happened throughout the year and what I can change in the coming year. I like to relax on the front step with a hot cup of coffee and just enjoy the scenery.

  383. Germana says:

    Oh love this set, pick me pick !! I wish, I could come to one of your workshops! may be will have to arrange one when my studio is ready and have you visit England!! LOL! HUgs always!

  384. Jessica G. says:

    Beautiful leaves! And that happens to be my favorite part of autumn, too — all those gorgeous colors of the leaves!!

  385. dianal says:

    The vibrant colors of autumn, the rich hues of red, orange and yellow in the trees and on the ground … the cool crisp days …. knowing that, pumpkins, pumpkin pie, crisp Fall apples, the list goes on …… short lived because winter will be upon us and everything will be covered in a blanket of white …..

  386. Gerda says:

    well, the colors of autumn have always touched me……from green to red – brown – orange – yellow ….just simply love it! It’s my palette.
    Although the falling of the leaves keep reminding me of the loss of my husband (september 21st.)
    Never the less……..I love autumn!

  387. Cathy Costelle says:

    Hi Michelle,
    I so enjoyed your class last weekend in Nashville and intend to really work on mastering your techniques. Thanks again for your wonderful blog and tutorials, which keep us all inspired. I would love to win the blog candy so I’ll throw my name in the hat. Have a wonderful weekend and Thanksgiving. God Bless!

  388. Heidi says:

    I love long walks through the woods with the leaves falling around me and crunching underfoot as well as the smell of the first woodstoves starting to warm up homes and hearths in the neighborhood.

  389. Laura Lou says:

    Hey Girl! Love your inspirations.
    Thanks for a chance to win this great set!
    Laura

  390. kathy ness says:

    I like the cool nights and the clear mornings. I also like the shadows on the lawn from the trees with the lower positioning of the sun. Thanks for the chance to win this leaf set! Kathy Ness

  391. Kren says:

    Do you remember back to when we did “our colors”? You were either a winter, summer, spring, or autumn? I dressed in autumn colors because I loved them — and I was a winter! I am drawn like a magnet to the cs packs with fall colors and leaves, leaves, leaves ! And you do such a lovely job on all your seasonal cards, especially the fall ones. kk

  392. shirley henry says:

    Hi Michelle
    My fav thing about Autumn is the changing colors of the leaves.
    Thankyou for the chance to win this awesome stamp set. Love your work!

  393. Julie G says:

    looks like a great set. Being from Arizona, I love when it starts turning Autumn…it means things will start cooling off and the Holidays are just around the corner….

    Thanks so much!
    Julie

  394. Hi! thanks for being so generous!! I would love this set if I am lucky enough to win!

  395. Cathy Peper says:

    Usually my favorite thing about Autumn is the weather, but this year…not so much. So for this year, I will choose Halloween.

  396. Randy Rimington says:

    I live in up state New York and so I am in the heart of beautiful maple trees. The hillsides look like they are on fire in the fall. I never tire of the glory of it all. However, one of my favorite things is the apple cider, caramel apples, apple pie, etc. Just biting into a juicy apple is heaven to me. Thanks for a chance to win the awesome stamp set Autumn Splendor.

  397. Char- D says:

    The colors of the changing leaves is the best part about autumn.

  398. Kelley says:

    We live in NH, my favorite part of Autumn is Peak Folliage when all the leaves turn vibrant reds, yellows, oranges. It is a beautifl site, especially in the mountaings, but also a sad day when the last leaf falls as winter is upon us…. Pick me, pick me!! 8-}

  399. Connie says:

    Michelle, don’t you just love the “smells” of autumn: leaves, cold air, fireplace smoke; food cooking! What could be better than that!! Connie

  400. Sharon Mc says:

    My most favorite thing this Autumn was taking your brayer class in Nashville! I LOVED it and learned so much! Thanks for the chance to win terrific “candy”!!!

  401. Sylvia Johnson says:

    I love the crispness in the air, the beautiful leaves on the trees, the smell of the air. I am fortunate to be able to live in the country. I am thankful for the crisp apples and the tart cider. Fall is Mother Earth preparing for Old Man Winter. I am thankful for God and country. Thanks for the op to get a free set of stamps!

  402. alexandra says:

    I love Autumn, the beautiful colours of the trees especially with sunlight shining through and around them intensifying the colours, before the last nip of frost strips them bare. I love the smell of Autumn & the crackle of leaves under my feet, and the beautiful carpet of russet, golds and amber leaves as far as you can see along the paths under the canope of trees when I walk my dogs.
    I love watching my dogs behaving like kids wanting to plough through the blown leaves in piles along the path, being nosey to smell the wildlife who’ve visited the same pile of leaves before them, to see the last sight of the squirrels collecting nuts and acorns before the winter gets harsh.
    It’s all good, it makes me want to create.
    Nature inspires Art, and you inspire us Michelle.
    Thanks for the chance of winning this lovely set.
    Alexandra

  403. lindsay says:

    Fall is my favorite season! I LOVE this set (and don’t own it). Thanks for the chance to win it!!

    Debbie

  405. Annette says:

    I love the first time I step outside into the crisp air – seeing all the colorful fresh fallen leaves blowing in the breeze. The sun still strong in the afternoon air. Up I love fall! It is never really long enough for me.

  406. Sharon W. says:

    I love all the fall colors. That’s my favorite thing about fall. Thanks for the chance to win this great set.

  408. JANE B says:

    Everything about autumn is wonderful. I love the great colors on the leaves. I love the temperatures, not too hot and not too cold. I love the holidays.

  409. My favorite thing about Autumn is, of course, the colors! And since living in Florida, the relief from the heat and humidity, although I do love warmth, and hate cold, which is the reason I am here, so would never complain about the summer!!

  410. linda patti says:

    my favorite thing about fall is certainly the falling and changing colors of the leaves, just breathtaking! thanks for a chance to win this lovely set

  411. Gini Cagle says:

    What a great set! I love the colors as well as the smell in the air.

    hugs,
    Gini

  412. Chris says:

    I love the vivid colors of the leaves, the crisp air. What I don’t love is raking all of those leaves up.

  413. Melanie says:

    I love snuggling into cozy clothes as the weather gets cooler. I also love making leave piles and being outside with my children as they play in them! Thanks for all your great work Michelle! I really enjoy it!

  414. Ida says:

    I love “everything” about Fall/Autumn but my favorite thing to do is shuffle through all the leaves after they have fallen and hear the crunchy sound they make. It’s a beatiful time of year.

  415. Karen says:

    This is a fabulous set! Thanks for being so generous! I love the cool, crisp mornings, warm afternoons, the smells and colors of the changing leaves, and the kids going back to school! :o ) I got married in September, so I also love celebrating our anniversary by going up north to enjoy hiking through the beautiful Superior National Forest in full Autumn bloom (& sometimes snow!).

  416. Wendy Swenne says:

    I love the autumn, because of the change of colors in nature. Signs that nature is going for a resting period.
    I really love al the different colors!

  417. Cindy says:

    I love autumn because the trees are so colorful and allergy season goes away!

  418. Mireille says:

    I love autumn for many reasons. First of all, it’s my birthday in october. Then I just love all the colors and the smells of autumn. And what about the sound of dry leaves under your feet…

  419. Sue says:

    I love autumn and the colors God paints everything – only our creator could make something dying look so beautiful!! The leaves in their golden, rust, orange, red and even brown colors! I love the cool nights and days that warm up! It is my favorite season!
    Thanks Michele for being soooooo generous! Hope to win the autumn splendor set- I have wanted to order it, but just have not done so.
    Sue

  420. Laurie says:

    Love this set. Autumn is such a wonderful time of the year. Thanks for the opportunity!

  421. JUDY says:

    wow would love to win this . keep looking at it but never ordered it .hope to win.

  422. kathy bragger says:

    The best thing about autumn is the colors… The changing of the leaves are spectaculor in my next of the woods, Canada… I love walking through a pile of leaves. It brings out the child in me…..

  423. ReneeG says:

    Autumn is a season of change. When leaves change from a bright green to golds and reds, when the weeds turn from obtrusive to incongruent and when sweaters come out of hiding to provide warmth. Red skies and crisp blue mornings full of crackling fires and the smell of mulled cider. These are all the things I love about the season of Autumn. Not to mention that all my favorite stamp sets are ones with foliage.

  424. Margaret Thompson says:

    My favorite thing about Autumn is being able to actually see and watch the color changing of those big Maple leaves although it is not as intense here in Ontario, California as it was in Long Island, New York where I grew up. But it sure brings back those good memories from my childhood and how we kids would rake the fallen leaves into the biggest pile we could then run thru it, stomp in it and throw them at each other! Oh for those GOOD memories and how I love nature!
    Margaret

  425. Jill Taylor says:

    There are many reasons I love Autumn. The colors of the leaves and the sound they make when you walk on them. The cooler weather, even though I don’t see much of it. I love Autumn because that is when the fair usually comes to town and that is a whole other list. My favorite holidays are in Autumn (Halloween, Thanksgiving, My B-Day). It is when my husband and I met. The kids are back in school. I like the colors of the wildflowers that bloom in Autumn (Golden Rod and Black Eyed Susans). The nights are longer. There are just so many reasons and I could probably list more after thinking about it awhile.

    Thanks for the chance to win the Autumn Splendor set.

  426. joyce says:

    A while back I was at a stamp meet, we used leaf stamps with matalic inks to stamp the background on black cardstock. These would be perfect for that. The project was beautiful for cards and or scrapbooking pages.

  427. Jodie says:

    I love Fall and I love candy, especially stampin up candy.

  428. Cheryl says:

    Autumn is quite simply my favorite time of year. I love it so much that my husband and I chose to get married in November. I love the colors, the smells, the nip in the air and the unique blue sky you only get on clear autumn days.

  429. Peggy says:

    I love this stamp set as well. I love spring and summer, but I’m usually ready for cooler weather when fall arrives. August is very sultry and hot and when the leaves begin to turn from green to red, gold and brown it is a welcomed sight because it means there will be a relief from the heat. And, of course, the color of the leaves are the best part of fall. Fall is one of nature’s most beautiful season, I think, and I enjoy it until the last leaf falls.

  430. Sally Crowe says:

    What I love about Fall is the end of the hot sweaty days and the beautiful colors.

  431. Theresa Wright says:

    We have the most intense colors in the trees this year in California! The crisp air, the snuggly warm drowsy feeling right before you have to get up…all these things are favorites!

  432. farida jararah says:

    This is a beautiful set. Autumn is my favorite season for its earth tones. I love the reds, oranges, yellows, and light greens. I grew up in New York, and now live in Florida. Now, it is summer all year round. I miss autumn and wearing sweaters!

  433. mary marsh says:

    I love the fall because of the cooler temps, changing leaves, my birthday, thanksgiving (my favorite holiday besides christmas), my wedding anniversary, the expectation of the upcoming winter. thankls for asking us what we like about this season and also for the chance to win this beautiful leaf set

  434. Melissa says:

    Such a pretty stamp set! I’ve been watching the leaves fall like snow out my back window from all the trees in our neighborhood….almost magical~
    Such a nice time of year after the hot summer days we once had.

  435. Claudia says:

    I love the colors of the fall. I love carving pumpkins with my kids. I love Thanksgiving and Halloween.

    I would have to say the color is the best thing about Autumn. Can’t beat those reds and golds! Thanks for a chance to win! You’re the best!

  438. Missi C says:

    The weather getting cooler is my fave thing about Autumn. I love leaf stamp sets, especially for manly cards. I don’t have enough man type sets & hopefully I’ll be picked. Thanks

  439. Kathy says:

    Hello Michelle
    My favorite thing about Autumn is the beautiful changing colors of the leaves. Especially
    when the sun shines through the trees and they look like they are glowing.
    This is a beautiful set. Thanks for the chance to win.

  440. DebH says:

    The best part of autumn to me is the weather changes and the beautiful colors of the leaves. To me there’s nothing that feels better than the cool wind blowing against my face. Thank you for a chance to win this beautiful leaf set. I’ve been wanting it ever since it came out. Your work is always so inspiring!

  441. Linda Lipford says:

    What I love about Autumn is the change from the flowers of summer to the colors and flowers of a cooler season. I especially love pansies and violas. I do not love going off daylight savings time though!

  442. Audrey H says:

    Autumn is my favorite time of the year. The colors associated with this season are fantastic! Orange, brown, and rich greens. I just love coloring with those colors.

  443. Kathy says:

    My favourite part of Autumn is the colour. The reds, and oranges are so vibrant, and inspiring.

  444. Laurel S. says:

    Fall is my all time favorite season and nothing speaks to me like the gorgeous colors of falling leaves.

  445. Ann says:

    I like the colors the best, how the reds, golds & greens blend together. I don’t like that the colder weather reminds me that winter is coming.

    Thanks for a chance to win this beautiful set.

  446. Cathy Brandt says:

    I love the crisp, clear days when breathing is easy and the trees are
    wearing their brilliant finery. Oh, what a wonderful time of the year –
    definitely my favorite. I would love to win this blog candy and add this
    set to my collection of leaves and trees.

  447. Kathy Harrison says:

    I love this set!! I am looking forward to your seminar in ST. Louis!!

  448. Robbin says:

    My most favorite thing about autumn is my birthday, November 7th!!

  449. Saundra Grose says:

    I love Autumn! I love to walk through the leaves and hear them crunch under my feet; it always reminds me of walking to school in the fall as a child. I also love the crispness of the air and a sense of Thanksgiving.

    Saundra

  450. Laura Borckardt says:

    Hi Michele, I absolutely love this set and what can be done with it. Thanks for the opp to win it. Laura

  451. eLLen says:

    My favorite season is autumn! I love the crisp fall air, colorful leaves, harvesting the last of the crops and feeling thankful for my blessings!

  452. Nadine says:

    I enjoy the cool, crisp mornings of autumn. Would love to win this fabulous stamp set. Thank-you for offering it as blog candy.

  453. Linda Marie says:

    Michele, please, oh, please, oh, please…….pick me! I sooooo need a boost this week, because we’re still digging out from the 24″ of snow we got recently and all of crunchy autumn leaves are gone! I so appreciate you giving us the opportunity to win Blog Candy….which is almost as good as Live Chocolate! Have a great weekend….L.

  454. Jacqui D says:

    I grew up in CA where we didn’t really have seasons, just “almost summer”, “summer” and “summer’s over”. Now, due to my job, I’ve had a chance to live all over the world and experience the different seasons. Each has it’s own beauty. But fall is my favorite. It has the most beautiful, vibrant colors and the air is so crisp and clean smelling. There is a carpet of color beneath my feet and I can see the mountains so clearly. For me, fall is rejuvenating and I love it.

    I just wanted to say, your cards are art and I wish I had half the creative genius you have. Thank you so much for sharing it with us and giving me an inkling how to catch some of the beauty you see in cards.

  455. Deb Thayer says:

    I love the sound of the leaves while walking through them on the sidewalks,
    the houses with pumpkins, the lightposts with cornstalks, and finding my gloves!
    Love your blog…
    Many blessings!

  456. Claire says:

    I love the colour of the changing leaves and the crunching of them when you walk on them.
    :)
    Love your blog

  457. Iris says:

    Great blog candy. My fav thing about fall is the leaves changing color…they are so vibrant.

  458. Linda Gundrum says:

    I love leaf stamps and be proud to add it to my collection.

  459. Stephanie Perry says:

    I LOVE this stamp set and would be so thrilled to win it!!! My favorite season is autumn; the changing colors of the leaves just makes my heart sing, as they go from green to gold to red or rust. Just beautiful. The tough part is the clean up, but it’s a chance to get outside in the cooler air and get a workout! Fall also means the holidays and shopping and baking and decorating. So fun every year!

  460. Monica M says:

    Hi,
    I love the crisp air and the colors of the leaves—the bright reds mixed with the oranges with yellows and greens. Wish all the trees could keep their leaves off my lawn though!!!!

  461. Pat Barger says:

    Love this season of the year. Thanks for the chance to win this lovely set of stamps!

    Blessings to You
    Pat

  462. Lee says:

    The best thing that I love about autumn is the colors of the leaves & the smell! I’m originally from Ohio, but I’ve been in Colorado for over 20 years. We don’t have anything close to the colors that I remember from back east. Our highlight in the fall here is the brilliant golds of the aspens turning.

  463. Sunshine says:

    My favourite thing about Autumn is the light. There is nothing as golden as the sun on an Autumn afternoon.

  464. Sandy Hill says:

    My favorite part of autumn is the changing colors of the leaves. I love how they start out green, then start turning yellowish and from there to a reddish copper color. Up here in the northwest, the colors are beautiful. I would absolutely love to win this stamp set. I can just imagine all the wonderful things I can do with it.

  465. Dottie McCraw says:

    I love the wonderful smell of Autumn and all the beautiful colors that God creates in the trees and shrubs. It’s like God is putting the landscape to bed for the winter.

  466. Di says:

    I love the crisp, dry air of autumn and the beautiful scenery created by the colorful Fall trees. Autumn is my favorite season and my favorite thing to do in Autumn is to travel to the northern part of the state, leaf peaking! Thanks for giving us the opportunity to win this delightful set!

  467. Eileen M says:

    I love walks on crisp fall days, sun shining, leaves rustling. Autumn is a wonderful time of year. (Doesn’t hurt that my birthday is in the fall, too!)
    Thanks for a chance to win!

  468. Robyn A says:

    Autumn is always special, I especially love the changing of the trees, but it is also my wedding anniversary, so it is my most precious time of year. Thanks for the opportunity to win such a beautiful set to recreate this time of year.

  469. SueB says:

    Thanx for the inspiration and t’riffic blog candy opp! My fav thing about autumn is probably that it’s my sister’s fav season … I enjoy the changes of seasons (for the most part, LOL!) and think winter makes me more appreciate spring, summer and fall!

    I’m a sucker for leaves, and love the beautiful colors, crisp scents, and get-togethers with family over Thanksgiving! Have a great weekend!

  470. Sharon says:

    I love this set! I have had my eye on it since it came out. The oak leaf and the maple leaf are my favorites in this set. Would love to emboss & color & play with this set!

  471. Rockin Robin Caldwell says:

    There are several things I like about fall: the crisp coolness of the days, the color of the leaves as they are still on the trees, and the “quality/character” of the sunlight. It actually appears more “clear” to me. I’m sure you’ve heard the saying about the “crisp, clear” autumn days. The sunshine just looks different to me. I also love the smells. What I don’t like about the fall is that it gets dark sooner, and after the leaves are all off the trees, and it is dark, and damp towards the end…just before the snow comes…it can be kind of depressing cuz it’s so gloomy!! Hisses, Rockin Robin Caldwell (stampinsavage at yahoo dot com).

  472. carol says:

    ASutumn;’s hues and smells of baking apple pies and spices and picking apples. Nothing is better. I would love a chance to win the stamp set. Carol Boire

  473. karen keiper says:

    My favourite thing about autumn is that you can still go swimming and on picnics and then come home and snuggle in front of the fire when it cools down at night.

  474. Lee Ann says:

    Believe it or not, we love Autumn in Hawaii too. We don’t have the splendor of all those changing colors on our trees but we have a bit of it and the weather starts to cool down which is nice.

  475. Valerie Marie says:

    The smells. Definitely the smells!

  476. Scrapycandy says:

    My favorite thing about Autumn are the fall colors…everywhere I look..oranges, reds, yellows! So wonderful…and then the winds come and the colors disappear….:(

  477. Oh my…Fall is a very popular season! It fills the senses with wonderful color, and because of the fallen leaves, you hear the scurrying squirrels hiding their cache. The temperature is perfect. The only thing I don’t like is the dark coming earlier! As for the SU! set, those leaves capture Autumn beautifully. I would be REAL happy if my name was drawn. Thank you for the opportunity! You do wonderful art and I await your tutorials.

  478. Kathy L. says:

    Just one favorite thing…………..I think I have o go with high piles of crunch leaves to dive into with children. Tooooooo much fun.

    And this set would be the perfect representation of that!

    Fingers crossed,
    Kathy L.

  479. Cindy says:

    I love the colors along with the cooling temps. Don’t get me wrong; I hate it when it’s really cold and there is snow but without the cooling temps the leaves don’t change colors. Everything seems so rich with the grains in the fields ripening and the farmers harvesting it just seems to complete a cycle in life.

  480. Autumn – what’s not to love? Rich colors, warm days and chilly nights, the crunch of dry leaves underfoot and the amazing aromas of apple everything, the gift of Thanksgiving and the promise of Christmas. Yes! Indeed! the best season of all!

  481. The Other Diane says:

    I love this set!!!!! and I’ve been meaning to order it. My favorite part of Autumn is the colorful leaves and gorgeous, vibrant colors of the hills and mountains of upstate NY. The air smells so crisp too. Those are the reasons I always sign up for an October weekend at Girl Scout camp. Thanks for the opportunity Michelle.

  482. chris geary says:

    I love the change in the weather and the vibrant color on the trees.

  483. Carol T says:

    When the leaves change color. I enjoy walking down our road & seeing the different colors that have appeared. All the yellows, rust, reds, & greens. God’s special paintings!

  484. Sheri says:

    I love the crisp days and cool nights of the autumn . After a summer of heat and humidity it is a welcome time in Nebraska. What I don’t like is raking up the leaves and by the time you get everything put away it looks like it has never been touched. Now these leaves are so different I love them!

  485. martine says:

    I love Autumn! Here in Arizona, all it really brings is much cooler weather,unless you venture up north when the leaves change colour, and snow comes later in the season. I love watching my children and grandchildren toss and tumble the fluffy white snow. It’s the perfect backdrop for family pictures. Having been raised in England, I miss the crisp chilly day’s. The dew covering everything, and my breath coming out in cloud’s. As a child I loved the bird print’s in the snow.

  486. Shar W says:

    My favorite thing about Autumn? I enjoy getting back into the swing of things at school with a new group of students, and seeing the pretty colors of the leaves that are on the trees- I guess I also like seeing the leaves fall from the trees into everyone else’s yard- then we don’t have to rake *wink*

    Enjoy the weekend!
    Happy Stampin’

    Hi Michelle! I love the colours of autumn and the crinkle of leaves when you walk on them. Not so much liking the raking though….,

  489. Janice Webb says:

    The crisp air, leaves changing color, and how fun it is to have a wood fire.

  490. Brenda says:

    Michelle
    Autumn is the most beautiful time of the year. I love watching the leaves fall from the trees.

  491. Sheila says:

    The most I love about Autumn? The beautiful colors the sunny cold days, the smell of fresh rain. Autumn is my absolute favorite season of the year!

  492. Connie says:

    I love all the different colors that Autumn treats us with. When I am coming home, and I top the hill by my house, you see this breathtaking view of the woods in all its colorful glory. It is one of God’s “freebie” gifts.

  493. Mary Jane says:

    Living in SW Florida, Autumn is something I have to work hard at to remember. When I get to missing it too much, we take a trip north to see the leaves change. Stamping helps me re-create some of that feeling. Thanks for the tutorials to show more ways to do that.

  494. Debbie G says:

    There’s a lot to love about autumn… the leaves turning red, orange, and gold, the frost on the grass early in the morning, the crisp, cool air, picking apples in the orchard, and drinking hot apple cider.

  495. Nancy says:

    What I love most is everything. Autumn is the best – the colors, the food, the cooler weather – it is my favorite season!

  496. gail says:

    Hello, Michelle, Autumn is my most favorite season of the year, even thos I am a gardener and Love the spring time for the planting and renewal. The fall with all its colors, scents and memories of trick-or-treating with family and friends, the large and small family get togethers for Thanksgiving over the years is just the best. Thank you for sharing all of your talent. gail

  497. Sara says:

    I love the smell of autumn – leaves and campfires, what could be better. Not to mention the colors of autumn are awesome as well. It’s such a great time to get outdoors and experience nature!

  498. Diane Hamilton says:

    My favorite thing about autumn is the blue skies, clear crisp mornings and all the beautiful colors. It brings back fond memories of when we were kids raking big piles of leaves and jumping in the piles. Simplier times.

  499. Hmmm, my favorite thing about autumn would be the Indian Summers here in the Mid-West. Or perhaps the wonderful eats at Thanksgiving. Is it okay to have two? :)

    Thanks for the opportunity to win! I think you are so sweet to not only share your talent with us, but blog candy as well!

  500. Dawn says:

    I love lots of things about Autumn but I suppose my favorite would have to be the apples. Apple pie making, applesauce making, apple crisp…you name it I like to work with apples, but really like eating them.

  501. Gillian says:

    Hi Michele!
    I never tire of your tutorials! Just so amazing! I keep wondering where you get your inspiration!
    My favorite thing about fall is the weather, and the lovely leaves turning. I have been all over the United States in the falls of my life, and when the trees turn those beautiful colors, I am always amazed!
    In Colorado the Aspens make a lovely sound when their leaves turn crisp and the wind blows through them. Along with the wind through the pines and the firs, it is just wonderful to experience. The hues and colors are glorious!
    In Iowa, the Mighty Oaks really turn the most awesome colors! I love the oranges and reds of the oaks as they turn!
    In Arkansas, the desiduous trees of the Ozarks always amaze me by their turning colors.
    Now in Missouri, the northern part of the Ozarks are always the most beautiful. Fall is my favorite season. The weather is so nice, hiking is the best, and the outdoors is the best place to be when the fall season is in full swing!

  502. barbara says:

    this set is beautiful, I would love to own it. What I love most about fall days is that the weather cools slightly, the sun continues to shine and the colors of course. I live in Nw England

  503. Kay says:

    I live at 6500 feet so we lack ithe gorgeous fall colors I remember from my childhood in the midwest. But autumn brings lots of wildlife and the end of the summer vacation season in the Rockies. I love the peace and quiet.

  504. Karen says:

    Fall is my favorite season!! These are just some of the things I love about it……the colors, fresh apples, getting out those sweaters & sweatshirts you forgot you got on sale last spring, harvest of crops, & things slowing down so I have extra time to stamp!!!

  505. Pam Furlong says:

    Autumn is my favorite season. I love the crisp cool air and the colors! We live in the Finger Lakes of New York and the colors are spectacular here. So, I also love making cards with leaves!! I love this set!

  506. Teresa says:

    Oh Michelle,

    Your blog candy is grand, and I sooo love leaf stamps and one of my favorite things about autumn is the turning of the leaves. But really more than that, I love the Thanksgiving holiday, it has remained traditional and focused on our blessings, centered on a thankful spirit, family, and great food. Thanks for the opportunity and your kind generosity. Safe travels!

    Teresa

  507. Maxine says:

    Here where I am in New Zealand we do not get the colours that many of you see, but we still get loads of leaves, and I love scuffing through them when they heap up – even though I am the ‘wrong side’ of 50 :-) .

    I love what colours we do get, and I love stamping with leaf stamps as they are so versitile!

    Thanks for the chance of some blog candy – again.

  508. Michelle says:

    I love warm fall days when the kids and I rake the leaves in a big pile and jump in it. We have hours of fun and the BEST pictures to remember it by. Thanks for another great chance for some great blog candy:)

  509. Kay C. says:

    Autumn – Color, Color, COLOR!!!!! I just love the different colors. In Ohio, many of the scenes don’t even look real. :>) Therefore, it would be fantastic to win tAutumn Splendor and make some cards to remember the colors all year long.

  510. Susan says:

    Love this stamp set! Have fun teaching!

  511. Kelli Dingmann says:

    My favorite thing about autumn is the changing fall colors on the trees and shrubs; and making apple crisp, and brewing pumpkin spice coffee, and eating caramel treats, and decorating the house in fall decor and orange lighted leaf garlands, and Thanksgiving, and…..the chance to win this great set. Hope I win. Thanks for the opportunity, Michelle! And oh, did I mention how ‘jealous’ I am that you are going to Savannah for a brayer workshop? :) Let us all know about Savannah and if you run into Paula or the boys :)

  513. Yvonne says:

    Love the colors of all the leaves…

  514. Chantal says:

    I love autumn for the bright blue sky. The crisp air. The color of the leaves and harvest. Pumkin, apple picking. To be thankful for all that nature gives us. I feel a bit nostalgic when I see the geese going south. We have had a beautiful fall up to now.
    Thank for this blog candy and the chance of winning!

  515. Victoria Stevens says:

    Autumn… oh what a season!! Nature shows us all her colors on the trees, the under growth, the weeds…. Beautiful. Then it all goes to sleep in all it’s barreness, only to re-awaken in the spring to go thru the process again. There is nothing to compare to living in areas where you can experience this wonder. The sky also is so different in the fall. Love, love, love the seasons, especially fall. We try to create this in our card crafts. Sometimes we think we are close, but ??
    Thanks for the chance to win this set from stampin up! Blessings, Victoria

  516. Liz Goldsmid says:

    I have 2 acreas that I purposely plant for the fall colors. So I have every color you can imagine side by side. I look forward each fall to the banquet of colors that I can take pictures of. I also love knowing that after fall, there is a quiet time that I can use to catch up on my scrapbooking and other hobbies. I love your site and your projects. Thanks for sharing!

  517. Judy Davis says:

    I live in Oregon. We have the most beautiful fall colors.

  519. Sue Martin says:

    Autumn is my most favorite season. I love everything about it! The cool crisp air, the local farmer’s fair & parade, the pumpkins, falling leaves, corn shocks, Indian corn, squash, Thanksgiving Day, the wonderful warm colors, the decorating, hot chocolate, cappuccino, pumpkin recipes, caramel apples, apple pies, you name it — what isn’t there to love about Autumn? I could live with the temperatures year round!
    Thanks for a chance to win the stamp set — it is one I have wished I would have.

  520. CarlaW says:

    I love the quality of the light. At 4pm everything is golden and vibrant and there is no other time like it except Sept and early Oct. and the temperatures, love the warm days and cool nights.

  522. Joy says:

    Fall time is such a great season to look forward to. It is the ending of Summer and usually getting ready for Thanksgiving and after that we always know Christmas is right behind it. I look forward to seeing all my family during Thanksgiving and sharing good food, fellowship and memories. Thanks so much for giving us this chance to win the stamp set. It’s lovely.

  523. Gitana says:

    Autumn is the most colorful time of the year. It’s as if Nature is putting on one last glorious show before the long winter’s sleep. My favorite holiday, Halloween (which is also my wedding anniversary) takes place in the fall. It is the signal that the holdays are upon us and the annual gathering of family and friends will soon take place. What’s not to love about Autumn.

    Ballo ergo sum,
    - Gitana, the Creative Diva

  524. Toni says:

    being able to kick the falling leaves up in the wind and watch them fall back to the ground just so I can do it again. This blog candy just reminds me of the falling leaves that are so beautiful in color and falling.

  525. Rufus says:

    My favorite things about autumn? The cool, clear, crisp air. The bright blue skies contrasting with the colorful leaves, the sound of leaves as you walk through them, even the smell in the air. My least favorite thing ~ cold, damp, dismal days that lead to winter! Love this set. Thanks for the chance.

  526. Linda Ford says:

    I love the colorful that fall here in East TN. Thanks a bunch, Linda

  527. Pat Garvin says:

    What a great set. When we lived in Ohio Hayrides and campfires were at the top of my list for the fall. Here in Florida it’s not quite the same. :O)

  528. Judith says:

    OOOH!!! I love this set! You did a marvelous card where you made these leaves look like fossils. I keep the link to that card on my desktop, because I am determined to case it. So I hope you pick me! hint, hint!

    Judith

  529. Violet says:

    Living in Northern Ontario, Canada, we experience all the seasons to the max, and fall is the best time – right in between mowng the lawn and shoveling snow, lots of snow! Raking leaves is a breeze!

  530. Marsha says:

    I love the colors! I carry home beautifully colored leaves I find on my walks and place them on the windowsill in my stamp room for inspiration. Autumn is my favorite season.

  531. Mitzi says:

    Favorite thing about fall??? Well, let’s see… it is my birthday season for one thing. As a child I always looked forward to that. I love leaves: their colors, falling to the ground waiting to be raked, how they smell when burning, walking through them to hear their rustling. Oh, yes, watching kids having fun jumping into a huge pile of raked leaves. Brings back good memories. Mitzi

  532. Theresa P. says:

    Hi Michelle!
    You ALWAYS have the coolest blog candy!
    My favorite thing about autumn is the way the air smells. It is a mix of leftover summer and oncoming winter. Here in the south, we get to experience it a little longer than most. Lucky me!

  533. hannah says:

    I love the way the wind smells on a sunny day when the leaves are beginning to fall. Sitting in front of a fire sipping cocoa and reading a book is also a favorite fall thing to do as well. Thank you for all that you do for us.

    Hannah

  534. Laura Diekevers says:

    Hey Michelle!
    Had a blast at your workshop today! Thanks for your time and sharing of your wonderful talent!
    My favorite thing about autumn is the changing of the leaves – I am so blessed to live in the beautiful state of Michigan where the natural beauty is always changing with the seasons – Fall is my favorite – all the beautiful colors – like the big colorful ball before the cool blues of winter.
    Have a safe trip home!
    Thanks Again!
    Laura

  535. Denise says:

    Autumn? I love it because it means the hot, humid Florida summer is almost over. And, another hurricane season will soon be behind us.

  536. Nancy J. Baker says:

    I just love the smell of autumn……. a crisp fall day raking leaves…. glad to be outside and not have to worry about a sunburn…… simple things!!

  537. buzzy says:

    Autumn is full of soccer games, yummy soups and a time to slow down after the busy summer!

  538. Lisa Whittemore says:

    My favorite thing in autumn is the gorgeous colors of the leaves. My second favorite is the briskness in the air and the change in temperature so I know I can start a wood fire soon.
    This is a really nice set of stamps and great gift.

  539. Anne P says:

    Hi MIchelle,
    That’s an easy one to answer! I love the rich, vibrant autumn colours. There’s a well known resort about two hours drive from where we live, and the colours are stunning.

  540. Beachbooklady says:

    I really enjoying seeing what you do each week and then I try, but never does it look the same. But I will keep trying!

  541. Karen Meyer says:

    Our beautiful state of Michigan is so beautiful in the fall. The vibrant color of the leaves are breathtaking. This is a very nice set of leaves for making cards.

  542. Jane T says:

    My favorite thing about Autumn is crunching through the leaves in the yard. I don’t let my husband rake them up just so I can cruch, crunch, crunch.

  543. Lynnette says:

    My favourite part of Autumn is watching the leaves change colour.

  544. Jannette Davis says:

    I’m all for the leaves turning all kinds of wonderful colors. But my favorite thing is the smells! Yes from the wood stoves keeping us warm, to the coffee or hot cocoa you might want to drink. Having that chill in the morning air just so you can throw another log on the fire.

    Jannette D.

  545. I love the colors of the leaves. The reds and golds are so beautiful. Each time I see a tree that is glowing with color I think how lucky I am to be able to enjoy this beautiful sight.

    Robbie

  546. Becky Y says:

    Color, color, color! Especially on the clear, sunny days when the trees literally glow!

    Hope you’re enjoying Portland!

  547. Leah says:

    I love the feeling of inner peace I get when I see all the beautiful fall colors and take in a long deep breath of cool fall air….I’m a weirdo….it’s calming to me! My absolute favorite time of year!!!

    What a generous prize!!! Love those leaves!

  548. blindstamper says:

    Favorite thing about Fall? How do I pick? Beautiful gold and red leaves, cool sweatshirt weather, no more mowing the lawn,… :)

  549. Mary J. says:

    Autumn is cool air after hot, humid, heavy air…. it is crisp, cool, “spring in your step”, clear thoughts, and beauty for your eyes. Oh, the awesome colors of fall… Leaves on trees and leaves on the ground and leaves that flutter around….

  550. Patty Stabile says:

    It’s hard for me to choose one thing that I love about autumn, it’s my favorite season. I guess for me it would be the cooler temps and changing leaves. I know it’s a little let down when all the leaves fall, but then I enjoy the cool eveings snuggled with my honey.

  551. Beth Greco says:

    I love the colours of fall! It’s my favourite thing, the brilliant reds and yellows! Happy travels and a safe trip to you!! Oh and I also love leaving the window open in fall so you can snuggle in the covers.

  552. Lilann says:

    The fact that I will not be dripping in sweat two seconds after I go outside.

  553. Colleen says:

    please oh please! and I repeat. you need to come to Alberta Canada!!

  554. Linda says:

    The best thing I love about Autumn is that the long hot summer has come to a close, and we get relief from the heat.
    Here in Australia we are just coming into Summer, and have Autumn to look forward to. Of course the beauty of nature’s color change can’t be beat!
    LindaF

  555. Colleen says:

    oops. sorry. ha ha. My favorite thing about the Autumn is when I’m able to spend it at my cabin. The silence of the fall out there ( central Manitoba ) is peaceful. The leaves turning and the hustle and bustle of the Summer vacationers is over. Crunching of leaves, the smell of the water from the now vacant beach. Totally wonderful. If my cabin was winterized I would be there all year!

  556. My favorite thing about autumn? That’s easy. Food. I love autumn food. That means squash soups and casseroles. Chicken and dumplings. Chili cooking all day in the crockpot with hot cornbread for dinner.

  557. Katherine says:

    When I lived in the midwest many years ago, autumn to me was the beautiful changing of the leaves. Now that I’ve lived in the desert southwest longer than anywhere else in my life, it means I can finally turn off my air conditioner and leave my doors and windows open all day without sweating profusely. This is such a beautiful time of year.

  558. Norma Terry says:

    What I like a bout fall is …………it was my wedding day 41 yrs ago to my high school sweet heart, and our honey moon was in the Smokey Mt. ….It was and still is my most memorable time in my life……….The mountains were the color of fire with clouds hanging on them that looked like smoke..It was a breath taking moment, that I will never forget

  559. Tanja Westwood says:

    Autumn is my favourite session, for the smell of the air, the colour of the leaves and you get to start having the fire lit at home

  560. Nancy B. says:

    I love your work. Would you please adopt me as your sister??? PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE

  561. airbornewife says:

    All the beautiful colors of the leaves is the best part of fall.. probably why it’s my favorite time of the year.

    thank you for the opportunity to possibly be the winner of that awesome stamp set.

    thanks, Pam

  562. Serena says:

    I love the colors and the cooler temps of autumn. Isn’t there a saying that fall is when every leaf becomes a flower?

  563. Greta says:

    My favorite thing about autumn is the smell in the air. I love it when people start fires and I can smell the smoke through the air. I roll down my car window on cold days to be able to smell this. I also love the colors and the freshness around.

  564. katie says:

    My favorite thing about fall is the clothing. It’s warm enough that you don’t have to bundle but cool enough that you have to keep all your skin covered. Keeping all my skin covered is a good thing.
    I would love to meet you in May when you will be in Wheaton.

  565. Anca says:

    There’s no comparisson: my favorite thing about Autumn are the rich colors that paint the leaves on the trees! The air becomes cool and crisp, and there is a certain smell to fall that always brings a smile to my face!

  566. Glennis F says:

    What I like about Autumn (Fall) are the cooler nights – much more comfortable for sleeping, and also being finished with the heat of summer.

  567. Fiona says:

    Autumn is such a great time as I love jumping into those piles of dead leaves lol

  568. Marilyn Hertenstein says:

    Absolutely love this set, sure wish I could win it. The matching DSP is gorgeous too.

    I live in Ohio too and the only thing I truly love about Ohio is the Fall. The leaves are breathtaking and their is a smell in the air and the sky has that special fall look too. It’s so amazing that is why I love to live in Ohio. I always do fall cards for my BFF because her Birthday is in Nov. so its awesome that I get to celebrate with the fall colors and leaves. I always do your cards for her, I’m a Zindorf addict. Thanks for being my inspiration.

  574. Nelda Deakins says:

    I love the changing colors of trees, leaves, grass & weeds in Autumn; I love the cooler weather and the knowing that the winter and holidays are just around the corner. The SU leaf set is absolutely gorgeous…some of the prettiest I’ve seen yet.

  575. christine says:

    My favorite thing about fall is the changing leaves. Every year that I can, I got to Utah and take a drive in the mountains. I have so many beautiful pictures of the Wasatch front in full Autumn Splendor!

    Blessings,

  576. Alexis Hilgert says:

    My favorite thing about Autumn is the smells. From the smells of the leaves crisping to the first wood fires starting to burn…I LOVE the smells of Autumn!

  577. Sue says:

    Hi Michelle, I love this stamp set and I probably can’t win it as I am in Australia but I would still like to comment. I love autumn because of all the gorgeous colours that are around for inspiration. I love earthy tones and autumn is earthy! TFS

  578. Sanisi says:

    I love your style and your blog. My favorite thing about autumn is the way the air gets crisp, but isn’t yet cold. And of course the leaves, the crunch especially.

  579. Jennifer Gray - Australia says:

    The best thing I like about Autumn is the freshness it puts in to the air and the beautiful colours it adds to all nature.

  580. Heather says:

    I love the colors of autumn – the warm reds, the rusty oranges, and the crisp bright yellows. I love the nip in the air. I love going to football games and rooting for the students I teach.

  581. Jill LaFountain says:

    I absolutely love Autumn…the splashes of color Mother Nature paints her trees with are simply breathtaking. I volunteer at a horse rescue farm and the backdrop of trees makes a perfect picture! I’d love to use this stamp set to use on a frame for some of the pictures I’ve taken :-) Thank you for the countless hours of inspiration! You are a blessing!

  582. lucy says:

    I love the colours of autumn, strolling through the woods, collecting chestnuts and beautifully couloured leaves with the children. And i would love to win this beautiful stamp set!

  583. carolh says:

    The Autumn colors are breathtaking…but when it gets cool outside I love to start baking…
    Yes, nothing better then munching on a cookie while admiring the splendor outside..

  584. Barbara Phelps says:

    Every since I was a little girl, Autumn’s been my favorite. Not only because of its extraordinary color, but for its clear blue sky, no humidity, few bugs, soft breezes and often times bright sunshine, and wonderful sunsets. And also for Autumn’s incredible textures. I enjoy seeing the cropland with its crusty cornstalks and rusting soybeans, along with the starkness of the leafless weeds and withering dry grasses, which deliver varying shades of terra cotta, gold, and brown.

  585. Jackie says:

    I love the smell of Fall. I was born in September, and Fall is my favorite season. I grew up in Western New York on a 150 acre farm, high in the hills. When you looked across the valley, all the different colors of leaves were just awesome. They took your breath away. It was like a Monet painting.

  586. KT says:

    I love every season when it arrives. I love the fall colors and raking leaves, the cooler temps and the beautiful fall days.

  587. Jean Fitch says:

    Favorite thing about Autumn….Crisp cool weather, fresh picked apples, mist winding around and on the mountains surrounding my narrow valley and of course the Holiday Mini!

    Thanks for offering such a wonderful stamp set. Hope I win so I can recreate some of your fantabulous designs!

    Hugs and blessings – Jean

  588. Tina DeLong says:

    I think the aroma of burning leaves is my favorite thing about autumn. Football games and hay rides and hot dog roasts………….such fun activities to enjoy outdoors before the snow starts to fly………………
    Beautiful time in Central Ohio !!!

  589. Karen Neugebauer says:

    My favorite part of Autumn is reflecting on when my grandfather would take us through the woods at peak season. He would point out and name all the different flowers, that we would pick for a bouquet for my mom and grandmother. He would then let us sit on the mossy grass and look up at the trees. It seemed that the colors were changing as we watched, with the leaves falling, and the sun peek-a-booing through the trees. I miss those times, but the memories leave me with a smile.

  590. I love to see the colors changing in Autumn. I love being able to open my doors and windows and not worry about the hot summer heat.

    Beautiful stamp set! Thanks for the opportunity to win it!

  591. Tami Harris says:

    Oooh! Oh Oh! I was just thinking about an idea for this set this mornng!!! Maybe I will get to try it. Thanks for the fun opportunity to win something… you are such an inspiration. Fall is Fabuolous!

  592. Helen says:

    I love the incredible colors of a New England Autumn. Because of the variety of deciduous trees, there is a vast array of colors spread out across the landscape. From vibrant yellows to rich, warm oranges…deep reds and touches of scarlet. I can sit and stare at nature’s brushstrokes for hours.

  593. Anna says:

    I love this stamp set it’s on my list of stamp i want so please enter me. Thanks for the opportunity.

  594. Marlene says:

    This year my eyes have been reopened about the fun and colors of Autumn. My 2 year old buddy has been taking walks with me. He has reminded me of the fun of rustling leaves, the changing colors of the trees, and fun leaf crafts I had almost forgotten. Some simple shapes and a colorful leaf can become a turkey with help from little fingers. With a little help from my buddy, this has been a wonderful Autumn!

  595. Bonnie says:

    Autumn is one of the two of my favourite seasons, spring is the other! I love the crisp morning air and when the sun touches the beautiful colours on the leaves, it is breathtaking. Thank you for entering my name in for the beautiful set of stamps.

  596. Karla says:

    I love pulling out my long sleeves and fuzzy jammies!

  597. Lou Ann says:

    Fall has to be my favorite season to walk and enjoy the weather and making cards that have all of the colors that go along with them.

I want you to know when I have a good day I come to my computer and pull up you site and so enjoy your work. You do great work and show so many different styles that I can incorprate in my card for family and friends. Thank you from the bottom of my heart and keep up the good work.

    love to take a ride along the great highway road 35 along the mississippi to see all the fall color and stop at an apple orchard to get apples.

  606. melissa says:

    I have to admit the leaves are my favorite thing. We even used fall leaves and colors to decorate at our wedding

  607. I love the colors of fall, so your blog candy is just perfect for blog candy. Then, of course, Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday.

  608. jean says:

    I love the colors, its mean everything.

  609. Maria Novak says:

    I have to admit, I am a HOT weather person, and living in Wisconsin we don’t get a whole lot of that! So, to me Autumn is just the beginning of winter, and there is something very sad about that… HOWEVER, my boyfriend’s bday is in late Oct, and we always go rock climbing around that time at Devil’s Lake St Park — the colors are beautiful! Just like one of Michelle’s cards !!!

  610. Phyllis Huie says:

    What a beautiful stamp set. I love autumn. In the fall it is my favorite time of year. In the spring, it is spring, but for now I am in love with the beautiful color of the trees and the great piles of leaves which people rake together for collection.

    Be blessed in this beautiful time of year.

  611. Terri E. says:

    I love the smells of autumn!

    It’s a good life!
    Terri E.

  612. BJ Beaver says:

    Hello, Michelle. I love all the colors of fall, the crisp cool weather, and the smell; its so clean. It is such a welcome change from the hot humid weather of the summer. I look forward to all the seasons changes. It is a blessing from God. He shows His love with this changes and I am truly thankful. Enjoy yourself this weekend getting inky and all
    Blessings…. Karen M, NC

  615. Christie says:

    my favorite think about autumn is the smell in the air. The air is so crisp, and in our area, a lot of people burn wood, so you have the nice homey wood smoke in the air. And don’t forget the great smells of cinnamon and pumpin and apples…. ah!

  616. Kathy says:

    I can’t get enough of the fall colors and the sound of the dried leaves crunching as you walk through them. I also love the warmth of a good sweater countering the crispness of the air.

  617. DonnaB says:

    Michelle….what delicious bolg candy! My favorite thing about Fall are the colors. They are rich, deep, gorgeous colors. It also means SNOW is getting ready to fall. Woo Hoo!
    DonnaB

  618. Gail R. says:

    I love the colors of fall…..we have had the most beautiful fall in Tennessee this year.

  619. Geri says:

    Autumn is truly God’s “second spring”! I just love the fall colors, which is why I choose to get married in the fall!! Also the cool crisp air is also so wonderful to take in!!
    I just love this stamp set and would love to win it!!! Thanks so much for the chance!!

  620. Trisha Smith says:

    After having breast cancer surgery in Aug. 2004 and beginning chemotherapy in Sept.
    I sat in our livingroom recliner peering out at the two Red Maple trees that grow in our front yard. Their branches cascade toward our house, shading it wonderfully from the hot Summer sun. That Fall, as I recovered from the effects of chemo, I watched those leaves turn the most beautiful shade of cheery orange!! When the Fall sunshine shone through them, it renewed my spirits, gave me a pick me up that only God can give. It gave me hope and I knew I’d be allright. I’ll never forget that gift that Fall. Those leaves since have never shone that bright, or stayed so long as that Fall 2004. Autumn fills me with hope, and love, and joy! I celebrate being here on earth each Autumn!

  621. Vicki says:

    Wow, what great blog candy! Thanks for the opportunity to win! Love this stamp set! Thank you.

  622. Kim S says:

    Fall, though consider a prelude to winter is a new beginning to me. I love the colors that show the glory of our Lord. Such a wonderful time. The colors, the smells it all adds up. I do miss seeing the true colors of fall. Here in central California we have fog or heat. When fall does arrive, around Christmas time, the leaves finally start falling off the trees, but not with the pretty colors I have seen in other parts of the country. So this set is perfect for anyone to re-create those rich beautiful fall colors.
    Thanks Michelle.

  623. Janice D says:

    The autumn colors of flowers and trees turing from the greens are my favorites. Knowing that God has a hand in all nature’s decorations of the earth. Taking pictures to preserve the awesome paintbrush used over the season. Realizing that the year is almost over, turning again to renewal beginning with Christ’s birth at Christmas!

  624. Sandra says:

    well to be honest, I love the fall because it means the humidity of summer is gone! I also love the excuse to start stamping with my leave stamps again!
    Thanks for the fun!
    Sandra

  625. Janey says:

    Fall is the most delicious time of the year for me! I love the colors, the smells, the need for a sweater, the crunch of the leaves, smell of wood burning in woodburners, apples and pumpkins, cider, and warm connections with my friends and family. We are starting the ‘nesting’ inside because of cool temps, so our gathering togethers are more deliberate and with people we really want to be with. For us, Thanksgiving pulls it all together here in northern Indiana – and next comes the snow! Yea!

  626. Colleen Dietrich says:

    I like this set, too, Michelle! You’ve made some nice things with it….I’d love to be able to do the same! Hope I win! :)

  627. Genny says:

    I love the colors! the changing for the leaves and the glorious colors that come with fall! Also, I love the smells! Love you blog.

  628. Kim Sears says:

    Hi Michelle, My favorite thing about Autumn is when the leaves on the trees turn colors! I love to take a drive just to see them… This is a great stamp set and I really like the oak leaf!! As always thanks for the inspiration!!!

  629. Enjoying a walk in the crisp cool air looking at all the colorful leaves along the path. Thank you for sharing this wonderful set with us. Cath

  630. Karen Saalfield says:

    What I love about Autumn is not the cooler temperatures, but the glory of the colors that God brings to the trees. That is awesome Autumn.

  631. Kathy Eddy says:

    My favorite thing about autumn is definately the colors of the harvest. I love all those great vegetables piled together at the markets with those great colors and textures. Simply art for the eyes as is. I also love Packer footbsll but I won’t bore you with that! LOL Kathy Eddy

  632. Liz Killian says:

    Autumn casts great light on all surroundings. When the sun hits things at such a low angle everything glows, I love it. And the air is so fresh it’s a pleasure to be outdoors.
    Thank you Michelle for sharing all your wonderful art with us. You have lots of talent and a big heart!

  633. Debbie says:

    Watching my puppy (ok, so he’s not a puppy anymore, but to me he will always be my puppy) remember how much fun it is to run through a pile of leaves. How funny that he seems to forget each year!

  634. Stephanie says:

    Oh the smell of AUtumn-I love the smell of wood burning, apple cider warmed up and the holidays. So much fun to watch the leaves turn but in Florida you can only imagine. Happy Thanksgiving…

  635. Mae says:

    I live in SWFL and when Autumn hits things start to cool down; turning off the air conditioning and opening up the whole house…love it!

    Thanks for the chance to win.

    Mae

  636. Cam says:

    Seeing the abundant of the ever changing leaves in the Fall is awesome. Thanks for a chance for the blog candy.

  637. Laurie says:

    Dear Michellle,
    In my opinion there’s nothing NOT to love about autumn! The leaves crunch, the air is crisp, my menus at home become warmer and heartier, and I sleep like a baby under cozy blankets where my dogs love to snuggle! And…then there’s my favorite holiday, Thanksgiving, a time of great appreciation for all that so wonderful in my life!
    Thank you for the opportunity to enter your drawing!
    Happy Thanksgiving to you!
    Laurie

  638. Earline says:

    I Love to go to the park and sit on the bench looking up as the leaves fall on my face

  639. Helen says:

    NC has a breath taking Autumn, and there is nothing like the Blue Ridge Mountains in Autumn.
    Thank you
    Happy Thansgiving
    Helen

  640. Kim P says:

    I love the beautiful autumn colors, and the way the gold, red, and orange leaves contrast the blue sky. I love the cool air, and bringing out my favorite sweaters. I have always loved the fall here in Illinois…so much that I planned an October wedding years ago! So my FAVORITE thing about fall is myy anniversary!!

  641. Becky says:

    Because I live on the border line of the western tip of Texas and Mexico, we do not have the abundance of beautiful trees that can show the color foliage that other states or cities experience. But just the change in weather is a beautiful feeling I can’t describe. And I love it. However, since my teens I have promised myself to travel to the east coast to experience what I have seen only on TV & pictures. To this date I have not, but thankfully my youngest sister moved to Tacoma, WA. It may not be the east coast but it is as beautiful and has those beautiful maple trees that I adore and finally I was able to experience twice (4 and 5 years ago) the color change and bring those huge maple leaves as a keep sake. God has made this earth grand hasn’t He.

  642. Carole M. says:

    my favourite thing about Autumn (on a day here when it’s currently 38 deg. C (100 deg. F) before midday, is that the garden still says ‘Spring’ but the promise is of cooler weather conditions rather than hotter.

  643. Jo Logue says:

    The best thing about Autumn are the warm days and the cool night.

  644. Dana L. says:

    The color of the trees changing and the cooler weather are my favorite things about autumn.

  645. Lucille Martin says:

    The best thing about Autumn is that the heat of August is gone but cold of winter hasn’t arrived yet, the beauty of changing leaves and harvest time.

  646. Julie C. says:

    I think one of the best things about Autumn is we, Texans, get to say ‘Adios’ to the heat of summer….and the smell of pumpkin!! **wink**

  647. Debbie says:

    I love the colours…and the sweater weather, when it’s not too hot and not to cold, you feel just perfect in a nice wool sweater. It’s the best time of the year…oh…except that you know the snow is coming LOL

  648. susan says:

    I love the many bright colors of the leaves….and this year, I especially love the blue birds that seem to be in abundance.

  649. michellegall says:

    the beat thing about fall is ridring my horses on our trail the air is cool and crisp and there is no bugs lol and the trees ane fab looking here in michigan on our ranchthank you have a awsome night

  650. Janet Sisk says:

    I love all the gorgeous colors! God sure has a great paint palette. The lovely reds, oranges, yellows and browns are spectacular. Thanks for a chance to win a great SU stamp set.

  651. Crystal says:

    My favorite thing about fall is the leaves. The colors changing and then when you can walk over them and have them crunch. Can’t say that I love raking them up though. :P

  652. Cathy Howland says:

    My favorite thing about fall is the sound the leaves make as I walk through them and the clean snap in the air. It also means family holidays and seeing my kids and grandkids.

  653. Becky Blackburn says:

    the first Fall I moved away from Ohio, my best friends Mom sent me a package. When I opened it a huge bunch of autumn leaves fell at my feet. They made me so homesick.. they were beautiful. Hope I win the fall leaves, so I can send her a fall leaf card. Becky

  654. Leanne Wilcox says:

    I love the fall colors and the cool crisp air! I also love that it is the time to bring out all of my pumpkin, leaf stamps to play with! Thanks for the chance at the blog candy!

  655. Pat says:

    Autumn…mmmmmm! Love the crisp fall air surrounded by the splendid colors! Autumn is a reminder of God’s creation & its beauty!!

  656. Pam says:

    I love your blog! You are so artistic and all your cards are truly a work of art! Thanks for all the inspiration.

    My favorite thing about autumn is the colors. I feel like I really come alive with all the warm colors. They make me feel so warm and make me want to enjoy every minute of it before winter blows in and everything changes. I love to take long walks, go for drives and change my summer decor in my home to fall decor. And making cards – every season is special but fall is the best of all

  657. Joyce says:

    Autumn has always been my favorite time of the year because of the blue of the sky seems more deep and the crispness in the air, plus the beauty of natures Fall colors that surround us is in my opinion, ” A little bit of heaven”. Joyce Arbogast

  658. Fall is a wonderful time when the heat of AZ is finally to an end for the year. Coffee in the mornings, and snuggling under a wrap by the fire place in the evenings. I just love this time of year;-)

  659. NancyS says:

    Autumn is my FAVORITE time of year (Spring is a very close second) because it’s a treat for all the senses. I love the smell of leaves, the gorgeous colors, the crisp air, the knowledge that the holidays are coming and all the fall veggies (pumpkin soup, butternut squash curry, etc…YUM). My very favorite thing about Autumn is that it’s snuggle time (especially after a long summer in which I’m always telling my hubby that he’s too hot to hug for more than a few seconds).

  660. Val W says:

    I love the cooler days of autumn, and taking walks in the fine weather. It’s cool, but all you need is to layer up a bit to be comfortable outside. I like to take walks through the fallen leaves. I love the scent of the dry leaves, and the crunch of them beneath my feet. Autumn is my favorite season of the year.

  661. Memories of waiting for the school bus with your head and neck scrunched down into your coat collar, the leaves floating down, the crunch of frost and the smell of the first hot chocolate of the season-yummy.

  662. Marion says:

    Thanks for this blog candy, the Stamp Set give away is so lovely !
    During Autumn, I love seeing my boy running in the fall colors leave sof all colours : he likes to hear them to crack under his steps.

  666. Tracy Gritke says:

    Autumn slows us down to remember the blessing in our life
    The colours although they fall, they bring happiness to all
    Autumn to me is all of the season cathering together
    It has many aspects of all of the seasons weather
    Autumn prepares you for the joys yet to come.

    Tracy gritke

  667. Mary Anne K. says:

    I love the crisp air, crisp apples, crisp leaves, and all the fellowship we share between family and friends!

  668. Evelyn says:

    My favorite part about autumn is raking the leaves into a pile and watching the kids jump in and when they come up and the leaves fall over them and to the ground the brightness and playful look in their eyes is just amazing.

    Thank you for sharing your wonderful brayered pieces your creativity is beyond words.

  669. Deb says:

    Crisp air in the morning , birds gathering winter seeds from my feeders, slight hint of frost and the odd snowflake to remind me that Christmas is just around the corner !

  670. Linda says:

    Fall is my favorite time of year. I live in PA so it is especially beautiful. I love the colors, the cool evenings and warm afternoons, the smell of apples and fireplaces. Fall to me means cozy and the holidays are comming. Linda

  671. Mary Ann says:

    Autumn is my favorite season. I love the

    My favorite thing about autumn is the leaf color change!

  674. judy parlin says:

    beautiful set would love to win!

  675. Pam Truitt says:

    To me fall is the last beautiful expression of color for the year with wonderful crisp mornings and warm sunny days as we bathe in bright shades of yellows, oranges and reds. I also love to watch the critters getting ready for the cold, sparkling blanket of snow that will come in winter.

  676. Allie says:

    My favorite thing about Autumn are the changing of the leaves. I’m not a cold-weathered person but I do love the orange and yellow leaves on the trees.

  677. Kendra says:

    The things I love about autumn……crisp air, the smell of woodsmoke drifting on the breeze, the crunch of leaves under my feet. There are too many to list!

  678. Diane S says:

    Love this stamp set and Autumn is my favorite time of the year because the air turns cooler and the colors of the turning leaves totally amaze me every year! I always stop to pick up the especially pretty ones and wonder how God made it! I just got a new catalog yesterday at a convention and will have to look this set up but hope to win it free! I have always loved brayering but you put a whole new dimension into it and would love to take your class!

  679. Jill says:

    Love this set because I love the leaves. You can do so much with them colorwise. Thanks Michelle for coming to me house and teaching me your tricks!

  680. Kimberly Ann says:

    I have more than one favorite about autumn. I love the crispness of the air, the changing of the leaves, the smell of baking… I could go on! Autumn is my favorite season of the year.

  681. Chris R. from Iowa says:

    I love that set and kicking myself for not getting it but have sort of shot my excess cash flow for my hobbies. Fall – the three S/s – sights, smells, and the sounds of crunching of the leaves. I looove the colors of fall, the smells of wood burning, fall baking with lots of spices, and the sounds of leaving crunching under foot. Plus, the crisp chill in the air to include another S – sweaters! Thanks for sharing your talent!

  682. Carol Moore says:

    I love the crisp, cool feel in the air and the turning leaves.

  683. Jean says:

    My favorite thing about autumn is watching the leaves fall from the trees. This year just as the leaves were the most beautiful shades of color, we had some windy weather and it looked as though we had colorful snow falling.

  684. Jamie keenan says:

    I would love that set. I love your site.

  685. Bobbie C says:

    This would be a lovely collecction to my stamp. Love your inspirations.

  686. Bev T. says:

    I love autumn and it is hard to pick one thing but I would have to say the vivid colors are my favorite.

  687. Carla says:

    What I like about Autumn (we call it Herfst in Dutch) are the leaves that change in wonderful colours.
    I like the photo’s on the internet of the Indian Summer in the USA, one day I hope to see them for real.
    Imagine what great Indian Summer coloured card can be made from this set

  688. Mary Wilson says:

    Autumn is God’s gift of color. I live on the Eastern Shore of Maryland and the trees have had the most magnificient shades of yellows and reds. This particular set would compliment God’s work. Please enter me for the Set Autumn Splender. Bless you in all you do.

  689. michele says:

    i hate to be boring but it really is the colors that i love about autumn. and the wind. also there is a quality of change in the air that i don’t catch in any of the other changing seasons in quite the same way. as though something important is happening; the chill is very bright. it is bittersweet because the next thing that happens is all that color goes away and it is cold and dark and kind of desolate. so my love of autumn is tinged with a little regret… but i still love it!

  690. laura j says:

    I live in southern Ontario and love the cool crisp mornings of autumn!!! The beautiful splashes of colors in the leaves of the trees before they fall is also so breathtaking!

  691. Kathy says:

    Wow; what a great set! Reminds me of all the leaves I’ve raked this fall in northeast Ohio. The colors were extraordinary this year.

  692. Sue says:

    Fall in New England is awesome. The colors of the leaves against the bright blue sky is a sight to see. Wearing a sweater is always something I look forward to after a hot summer. Although the long, cold winter is not my favorite season, spring and fall in New England can’t be beat. Thanks for the chance for the blog candy! :) Sue

  693. Jenn says:

    I love the pumpkins & egg nogs that you can find everywhere this time of year (egg nog lattes & pumpkin spice lattes & the muffins & breads to go with ‘em!!).

  694. Gayle C. says:

    To me the most exciting thing about autumn is the wind. Nothing makes me feel so free and alive like a beautiful autumn windy day. Thanks for the chance of another great stamp set.

  695. Phyllis says:

    I especially love the color of the leaves and sometimes the crisp mornings. A perfect fall day for me is slightly brisk, the sun is shining, the leaves are ablaze with color and the leaves on the ground crunch when you walk on them! Perfect day for a walk!

  696. Amy Young says:

    My favorite thing about autumn is all the smells…. hot apple cider, pumpkin pie, leaves… Everything just smells so wonderful in the fall!

  697. Sara says:

    i love the crisp air and falling leaves, the bright red apples and the warm hues of nature . i love wearing fuzzy sweaters and snuggling on the couch. i love the decorations and corn and punkins. i just love everything about autumn.

  698. Dorene says:

    I love to watch the leaves change colors, and the cool crisp air.

  699. Dawn says:

    I would love the opportunity to win this stamp set! I love autumn and this set is beautiful & your work is fabulous!

  700. Linda S. says:

    I live high in the beautiful Adirondack Mountains, and what I most look forward to in the Fall are the beautiful red and orange colors of the maple trees. You can’t recreate these amazing colors–only Mother Nature has this palette. Every day brings new colors and breathtaking views. It ‘almost’ makes up for the rather lengthy winter that follows. (I’m not such a fan of winter.)

  701. Janet says:

    Hi Michelle,
    Fall is “Mother Nature” at her best…us mortals couldn’t come close to copying the vibrant colors. Cool, colorful and crisp!!! Thanks for the opportunity to win this fabulous blog candy. Cheers, Janet

  702. Deb-doodles says:

    Michelle,

    My favorite thing about fall is when the air is a little cooler and crisp and you make crunching sounds when walking through the leaves. It is a special memory of when I was little.

    Deb

  703. Rachel B says:

    What a great set. I love it! My favorite part of Autumn (besides my birthday!) is the changing colors! I love the changing leaves as you drive through the Colorado mountains.

  704. Lynne P.-D. says:

    Here in Southern Ontario the best thing about fall is the color of the leaves and the bright sunny days. From my house the Niagara Escarpment looks like it is on fire with color.

  705. Candy Heathman says:

    What I like about Autumn is the changing of the leaves and the cooling weather. ALthough living in Arizona, we do not have much of an Autumn. On Thanksgiving day, they are predicting 79-80 degrees!! How can anyone get into the holidays with that kind of weather? But I guess it is better than shoveling snow! LOL!

  706. Melanis says:

    Hi Michelle,
    Well what I love the most about the fall are the soft rich colors that we are discovering little by little just like if the summer had hidden them under her warm coat of vibrant colors. Since Red is my favorite color I do feel pretty comfortable.

  707. Jayne S. says:

    I have to pick just ONE thing that I love about autumn? I would say it would have to be the beautiful colors as the leaves turn. (Although I also love the crisp taste of fresh-picked apples, fresh apple cider, the crunch of leaves underfoot… well, you get the idea!)

  708. Leanne D. says:

    Favorite thing about autumn?? For me it would be Thanksgiving Day. Everything about autumn culminates with this special holiday. Be blessed!

  709. lacyquilter says:

    I know it’s not as common as it used to be, but I just love the smell of burning leaves.

  710. Lee Cockrum says:

    I love the windy days, when the air smells so sweet and clean. It smells sort of like watermelon to me. I love to sit out in the sun and smell the air, and feel the wind in my face.

    thanks for the chance to win!

  711. Christy C says:

    Fall is my favorite time of the year. It reminds me of the goodness that we have truely been blessed with from the spring and summer…you know…warm sunshine, fresh rain, things starting to bloom–new life beginning… to the growing and maturing of the sunshine, rain and plenty from the gardens. Its the time right before the earth “sleeps” getting ready for the next delivery of new life/blessings.

  712. Cecile G says:

    My favorite thing about fall is all the soft sweaters — the people you care about look even more cuddly and huggable in soft sweaters! :)

  713. Jennifer Ford says:

    EEEEEE!!!! Another brayer workshop that I can actually get to…maybe.

    Love this set, and all the ways that yu have used it. I think it is a classic.

  714. Dawn says:

    I love watching the world (trees, plants, etc) go to sleep for the winter, hot cups of tea/hot chocolate on our deck late at night waiting for the hubby to come home (1 a.m.), warm sweater, the smell of a wood stove and snow.

  715. Jennifer Ford says:

    Oops, forgot to mention, besides the lovely fall leaves, my favorite thing in the fall is

    FOOTBALL!!!!!!

    and gaudy Homecoming corsages made of mums as big as your head,

    And the smells of leaves burning and the first fires in fireplaces..which are not things we experience here in Florida very often.

  716. Amy H says:

    Michelle I’ve learned so much from your tutorials, ways to think outside the box with my stamps, and I just wanted to say Thank You Very Much, You’re an Inspiration!!!
    My Fav thing about fall has to be, of course, THE COLOR! There’s nothing as breathtaking as rounding a bend in the road and seeing a Splendor of Color Unfold before your eyes, and feeling yourself go, Ohhh!

  717. Laurie in MN says:

    Perfect weather, not to hot or to cold, is what I love about Autumn. I also like the smell of the air. And with cooler weather, soups and crusty loaves of Vienna bread for supper and pies for dessert are perfect meals.

    And for the past three years, a flock of over 50 female cardinals gather in our trees and take turns eating the berries off some bushes.

    Thank you for offering SU stamp candy.

    Michelle,

    I love this stamp set, because I love leaves. My favorite thing about Autumn is the bright colors when the leaves begin to change. The bright orange, yellow, red and rust colors just make me say “AWE”. About a week ago I drove down Padden Express in Vancouver Washington, where I live, just look at all the trees that line this road. There are retaining walls on each side of the road, and they have these bright red and orange things (some type of climbing plant) all over the walls, and combined with the trees it is just heavenly.

    Thanks for offering this wonderful stamp set and I would feel honored if I won and to use it to create some “Autumn” cards.

    Sincerely,
    Dianna Towner

    Happy Thanksgiving

    the colors in natures, the chill in the air…perfect for a cup of steaming hot chocolate!!!

  720. Catherine Kraft says:

    Autumn is my favorite season………it starts to cool off after a hot summer and then it’s time for comfort food of homemade soups and breads, the beautiful colored leaves and baking all kinds of goodies. Being able to sip hot cider and warming up to a crackling fire…….then there is Thanksgiving. Family, friends and so many wonderful blessings and memories to share. This year Thanksgiving will be our 21st wedding anniversary and i am so grateful for my wonderful husband and family.

  721. Jenny says:

    One thing I like about fall is walking my favorite path in the woods, kicking leaves as I go, hearing the sounds of silence, watching as the sun rays streak through the trees. It makes for good memories. Now if I could just translate these mental images into beautiful cards in Zindorf style! Thanks for the blog candy offer…

  722. Nancy Tuttens says:

    I love fall colours – especially when the trees turn bright colours – yellows, reds, oranges, etc. This year has been particularly nice – the leaves have stayed on the trees longer, the weather has been very nice.
    Thanks for offering another candy blog. You are fantastic!
    Looking forward to your next creation!
    Nancy

  723. Lynn Gwinn says:

    I love the smell and crunching of the leaves on long fall walks. I also love apple cider simmering on the stove and the aroma that fills the house.

  724. Pam says:

    Fall always reminds me of the word my dad used to use – invigorating! There are so many things about it that engage all the senses God gave us, and it leaves lasting impressions on the mind with breathtaking color and design. The blog candy set can definitely capture a small portion of that. Thank you for the offer, Michelle.

  725. adrienne says:

    Bonjour Mme Zindorf,
    J’aime bien les couleurs de l’automne. Puisque je vis à l’est du pays, nous y trouvons beaucoup d’érables et la variété de teintes est superbe. L’ensemble ferait un bel ajout à ma collection. Merci!

  726. My favorite thing about autumn has to be the smell of leaves or wood fires in the air… then you know autumn is here!

  727. Melanie says:

    Fall here in our community means sorghum cooking, and beautiful colors on the trees as they change from green to red, gold, and browns. I love what you have done with this set in the past, thanks for the offer.

  728. terri says:

    I love the changing colors of the leaves! Thanks for sharing your creations with us!

  729. Cindi says:

    That is such a pretty stamp set! Love the detailed leaves, and I have a “thing” for acorns lately! Since we are in FL, my favorite thing about autumn is that the air gets just a little bit cooler and less humid. Hooray! But, we did get back to NY, and I loved the fall colors and the smell of the leaves.

  730. Mel says:

    I loved the fall colors of the trees and the crisp air!

  731. Barbie says:

    Leaves crunching under foot while walking around campus. I love autumn. And winter is a close second. Thanks for the blog candy chance and fory our lovely cards.

  732. Cindy L. says:

    My favourite thing about autumn is that my first baby was born right in the middle of it!

  733. Karen (the zuf/SCS) says:

    I love the colors and the smells!!!

  734. Stephanie C. says:

    Lovely set. Please put me into the basket!

  735. Margaret says:

    Wauw, great set, you did it again Michelle. Love the fall season so I wish for this set.
    Thanx for your great blogcandy’s give away………

  736. Cathy Green says:

    I’m probably too late, but I’ll comment anyway. I’m not a fan of autumn. The colors are pretty and all that, but it just means that winter is right around the corner….and I HATE winter! I do like the crisp mornings that turn into warm days. I do love jackets, and you can’t wear those in the summer. I also love the fall vegetables, (squashes and pumpkins). So I guess it’s not so bad. It’s just not my favorite.

  737. Mel says:

    I love this set! Leaves have so many possibilities and I’d much rather be stamping leaves than raking & picking them up (which I’ve done a lot of lately).

  738. LynneZ says:

    Michelle – My favorite thing about autumn is the changing colors of the leaves and the many beautiful colors you see each autumn. Autumn is watching mother nature get ready to take a nap so she can rest up for the spring.

  745. olga says:

    Michelle-

    I just love this set. I’ve seen you use it with different colors in several cards and those were so beautiful. I like autumn for the colors, of course, and for the Thanksgiving holiday. Also, I know about mushrooms and my husband and kids will go for mushroom picking and make delicious mushroom homemade soup. It is creamy and comforting… and at the evening when it gets colder we have bowl of warm mushroom soup with sour cream…..
    Thank you for sharing you candy. I hope I win this time, Olga

  746. Judi Szyndrowski says:

    I love the colours of autumn. Sadly, this year we did not get to experience the beautiful golds, reds and oranges in western Canada. The weather did not cooperate, and all we got was brown.
    I will just have to make up for it by creating my own fall scenes when I win that wonderful stamp set you are offering!! Thanks for your generosity. Judi

  747. Mel says:

    Can always use another set – lol

  748. Jessica says:

    beautiful autumn images. My fave part of autum (aside from Thanksgiving) is the falling of the leaves and the obligatory jumping in the piles of leaves. Makes me feel like a kid again.

  749. T Hilligoss says:

  756. Andrea Head says:

  757. Debby says:

    I love Autumn, it is the most beautiful time of year. My favorite I love to see all the beautiful colors of the trees. It’s not to hot and it is not to cold, perfect time of year, I could live that way all year long. Don’t need heat and don’t need airconditioning.
    Thanks for the chance at the awesome leaf set.
    Angel hugs
    Debby

  758. Martha says:

    I love cool air and Packer games! I love this leaf set!

  759. Barbara says:

  760. Martina says:

    My fave of autumn are the beautiful colours of the nature…when the sun is shining in the trees and all looks so golden.

  761. Mary Strauser says:

    My favorite thing for autumn is the colorful trees and chilly air. Also it is closer to Thanksgiving for which I get to see my family. This year we will have 25 to 30 people and I love doing it.
    Thanks for the chance to win that great set.

  762. Nancy Dawson says:

    I love this set too. It is so versatile, great lines – beautiful embossed or not! We live in the middle of the Blue Ridge mountains and Autumn is my favorite time of the year. The leaves are gorgeous and the skies are filled with God’s colorful canvas. Thanks for a chance to win. Nancy

  764. Lisa says:

    I love autumn and it’s earthy colors–the oranges, rusts, browns, greens, etc. It’s so pretty to see the trees change in the mountains of Tennessee.
