Gourd Goodness: Stampin' Up! Artisan Blog Hop

Hello again friends! October is in full swing, and I know I feel the need to play with leaves, pumpkins, gourds, and cozy textures. Don't you? Well, maybe if you are entering spring in the southern hemisphere, you may think not ๐Ÿ˜This time on the Artisan Blog Hop, we are featuring some wonderful fall themed sets. I decided to use the set that seemed more challenging for me. I tend to do that, to stretch my creativity. And then I find I can't stop using whatever stamps I was not drawn to, and loving it!

For those who are new to the Artisan Design Team, here is a little background. We are a group of 20 Stampin' Up! demonstrators from around the globe, handpicked by Stampin' Up! to bring you inspiration and projects with the latest and greatest supplies

If you are following along in order, you have just arrived from Sylwia Schreck's blog. And she has done some amazing things!

The Pine Plank embossing folder makes a wonderful textured background panel for the simple layered stamping on Crumb Cake cardstock here. And the linen thread adds another rustic touch.

Then the Burlap background stamp. LOVE it on the Sahara Sand cardstock! The leaves are stamped off for the base layer, then full strength for the detailed layer. And I fussy cut those out. I think I am getting better at that. And I don't hate it any more! Yeah me ๐Ÿ˜Š I used the Embossing Paste and the Pattern Party masks with a circle mask to create a little more texture behind the leaves.

Last up are these Wood Crates in Soft Suede and stamped with the Hardwood background stamp. The different gourds have the first layer stamped in a color, then the detailed layer stamped in Versamark ink. Then they are Clear and Gold heat embossed, sometimes with both on the the same gourd! I plan to use these as little treats on the place settings for Thanksgiving.

That's it for me! If you started at the beginning with Allison Okamitsu, then I am the last stop. If you started somewhere in the middle, keep going so you don't miss a thing!
