Time for a New Challenge

 Hi everyone. I am here today to tell you about the new challenge at Try It On Tuesday.

This time we are asking you to Emboss!

Any kind of embossing will do.


I'm taking you to the pumpkin patch today for my embossed page.
I stamped some various pumpkins and embossed with some bright orange and some rust colored embossing powders. I did think about dry embossing, but then I would have had to dug out my embossing folders which are neatly packed into a box and put up on the top shelf over my head as I haven't used them lately. Maybe it was time to dig them out. Figured I would stick with embossing powders and my autumn stamps which were already out on the studio floor. Smile.
 I colored my pumpkins with markers and gelatos. Then to complete my fall scene, I die cut lots of little leaves with an older TH leaf strip die. I also used this very old Cornish Heritage Farm dog in the pumpkin stamp.  
The grass is painted and then I doodled in some texture, and the sky is an ink mop up. 


Don't forget to stop by and visit all the design team art.  There's lots of inspiration there for you.
And I can't wait to see your embossing. I admit, I'm not much for embossing, and I am really hope to get some new ideas.

Thanks for visiting.

    Love your embossed pumpkin, very pretty. Just saw 2 people trying to carry an enormous pumpkin along the street, too funny! They will have long arms from it! Hugs, Valerie

    Wonderful pumpkins, Erika. Love the colour contrasts. We only really see one kind over here, apart from tiny ones here and there. It's a great October page. Love your biccies in the previous post. I've never seen leaf shaped biscuits before - great colours. Bet that bread is good, too. I used to make honey wholemeal bread in plantpots. It was amazing, but it spoiled me for all other bread! Enjoy!

    Love the idea of being taken to the pumpkin patch, reminds me of the great times we had with the children letting them choose their own pumpkins from the farmers field for Halloween carving. Love the wee dog peeping out, now that would be a nice scary surprise.. Super page.
    Hugs Tracey x
