Question fall festival ideas - help

I wanted to make something for my kids' fall festival at school. It's a small private school and they have a little festival each fall after the start of school. Parents usually bring some type of food dish or dessert and there are activities for the kids - bobbing for apples, a bonfire, etc. I'd like to make something for the festival - mostly for the festival but also something to show that I'm a new demo. Whatever I make CAN NOT be Halloween at all, it has to be all fall stuff (leaves, pumpkins but no jack-o-lanterns). I want to have something that I can stamp my "made by" with my name on it. I don't want it to be an 'in your face" type of thing, just something to let people know if they like it, who to go talk to about it. Does that make sense? I'd like to make a bunch of whatever it is so lots of people can grab it and carry it around. I was thinking about some individually packaged dessert item or little bags of candy. But since I don't really have a clear idea, I thought I'd throw it out here for any ideas.

Thanks (and sorry I'm long-winded on this!)

How about little packages of candy with cardstock tops (folded - you know, I'm sure there are some in the gallery)? I don't know what sets you have, but a pumpkin or something 3-D'd on it would be cute. In the gallery, under Anything But A Card, there are some cute ideas like lollipops that are covered with stamped cardstock and there's something called "Halloween Treat Bag." I don't celebrate Halloween at all, but the ideas are very cute. Check it out. Gay Howe

What about lolipops? You can do the boxed wrapper and use a stamp on the front of it. This link shows one just like I did last year for halloween...

I've thought about the little topped bags (I made those a few years ago for a neighborhood Halloween celebration). I had totally forgotten about the lollipops, though. I have lots of leaves (too many), both stamps and punches. I don't have much yet in the way of pumpkins, only a non-SU French style looking pumpkin which I really like. Any other ideas?
