So last month's tribute to GeminiRJ was pretty... not good. Everybody was busy getting back into the swing of school and fall and all that. Understandable.

The theme for this month is going to be.... Autumn Fun! Meaning you can do Halloween or leaves or Back to school or whatever you want as long as it's Autumn related. The ''Fun'' just means to enjoy it while you're doing it

I don't know the exact rules or where to find the thread, so generally they go something like:

New cookies only! Not something you've all ready done and posted to your photo gallery. Post a picture here in the thread if you can, or link to the new picture in your gallery. If you get your inspiration from someone else, be sure to mention it when you post your picture. Be kind and encouraging to your fellow cookie artisans and have lots of fun!

Ready, set, go!

Can't wait to do some 'Autumn Fun' cookies! I wanted to do last month's tribute to GeminiRJ,since she is one of my favorite decorators, but didn't get the chance. I hope to combine the months since I have received Gemini's cutters!

I'm sure that others have made some Autumn fun cookies too and would love to see them! Here are some skulls I made for Dia de Los Muertos. Enjoy![/img]

As a side note... I had a crazy time with the RI accents as they kept "popping off" the edible image. Any advice? I may repost this as a separate topic so that more people might click on it...but happy to take any advice.

love the dia de los muertos cookies - awesome!

sabrinaling47 those cookies are beautiful!

Those dia de los muerto cookies r way awesome!!! I know my daughter would love those. She will be 30 next year. I bought a new printer, but have not had any money to buy the edible colors and frosting sheets. Would love to try to do those sometime.

I made these from the gingerbread boy and snowman cutters.

Sorry about the fuzziness. I hate my camera.

Sabrinaling47 those are beautiful!

Thanks for the compliments, everyone! Don't forget there are still a few days left in October, so I'd love to see the cookies that people have been working on Meanwhile, I'll think of our November theme...

PS--7yyrt, I love the gingerbread man one with the little red eyes! Really cute!

Sabrinaling47 I just love your cookies.
7YYRT your cookies are cute.
I bought GeminiRJ's cutters too, so I hope to make some for my kids halloween Party.

I just posted these yesterday, so I hope it's not breaking the rules.
These were made using the large balloon cookie cutter.

somehow I managed to miss the club last month! I want to know more. I will make my cookies this week for a fall festival and early halloween party.

Where are the cutters from ya'll are talking about?

you all are going to be sooo jealous, guess who's making cookies for me for my halloween and fall menu promo?? GEMINIRJ I'll try to get you some pictures, I know you all miss her

I wouldn't have thought of using balloons, cookie_fun.

Love the spooky trees!

7yyrt~

I don't often have inspiration on my own, so when these turned out just like I thought of it I was so happy. Thanks for the nice words!

Anyone know the theme for November? I think last year it was autumn, and I made schoolkids and turkeys.
NO they are not supposed to be clowns! LOL

This is for october:
I've made those cookies (with fondant) for halloween... ok it's not really "autumnish" ..
But I wanted to share!

Yum!
I love the look of those rainbow lollipops, but seldom buy them except as decor because they're too hard to eat. COOKIE lollipops on the other hand...

7yyrt, those turkeys are so cute and very creative. I obviously figured out the maple leaf cutter, but please explain how you did the rest

Thanx Kelly

verono, that lolly cookie is so gorgeous! How did you do that? Is it fondant?

Yes it's fondant!
I've made long and thin fondant rope, twist them together and I've made a circle with it. Then I've flattened it... A lot of job! I've done only 6 in a little bit than an hour and my fondant was already made!

So you make a couple of ropes of different colors, twist together, and the coil them? THat is absolutely beautiful.

yes, I've made a few different color ropes..
I wish I have photos of the process ..!
Thanks!

I just added cocoa and powdered sugar to the peanut butter buttercream to make a dough.
Rolled and cut some out for the circles, and molded the head and chest (in the shape of a figure 8 ) with the rest.
The eyes and feet are cloves.

thank you 7yyrt, got it

Thank you verono.
