Wood Block Wednesday / Guest Designer

Welcome to Woodblock Wednesday for August . On the last Wednesday of each month, my friend Amy Tsuruta shares her love of woodblock stamps and invites everyone to share their love as well .  You can link up your card and might just win a crafty prize from her. Check out her IG page for details  HERE .. I actually won the prize in July and used one of the stamps I received for my cards today . She also asked me to be the Guest Designer for August and I was thrilled !! Are you a lover of woodblock stamps ?? I know I have some that are almost 30 years old .

I bought a quirky paper pad at Michaels awhile ago and was just waiting for the right project to use it with . It's called Verdance and has quirky images of sardines, coffee cups, flowers and strawberries.  They remind me of Marimekko designs .. 

For my 2 cards I used a stamp from Yellow Owl Workshop .It was one of the stamps sent to me by Amy as the Woodblock Wednesday winner for July .  You can see Amy's  August Woodblock Wednesday blog post HERE .

Woodblock Wednesday / December 2022

Today is Woodblock Wednesday !! My crafty friend Amy Tsuruta will be posting a card each month using one of her many fabulous woodblock stamps and will also host a challenge in the corresponding blog post. I also have many woodblock stamps and decided to join her today.

I used a 2019 Christmas Banner stamp from Hero Arts for my card. The paper is a fabulous 6x6 pad from Craft Consortium -Made By Elves . I also used several faceted crystals . After I colored the image, I realized that I had that paper that was the perfect color match !! 

If you have a stash of woodblock stamps,  join the challenge and link up one of your own projects. You can get al the info and lots of inspiration HERE at Amy's blog - Tsuruta Designs .

Thank you for visiting me on Woodblock Wednesday .

Woodblock Wednesday / Guest Designer

I will admit that I absolutely LOVE my woodblock stamps and must have several hundred. So I was over the moon thrilled when Amy Tsuruta asked me to join her for Woodblock Wednesday. Since July of this year, she has been been using a favorite woodblock stamp each Wednesday and blogging about what she has created. She has also had several guest designers and I was so excited to be asked. 

I have not unmounted any of my woodblock stamps. I have so many favorites  and they are  all displayed on several shelves and cabinets in my craft room. I have given many away as I destash periodically but all of the rest will stay mounted. The stamp I chose to use is one I bought in 2008 - Mimi's Pumpkin Patch from DeNami Design .

• I chose 2 Autumn-patterned papers from my scrap stash and adhered them to a white card base, leaving a small margin around all 4 sides.
• I cut the leaf patterned paper on the diagonal and placed that in the bottom right corner of the card on top of the star paper. 
• Versafine Clair Nocturne ink  was used to stamp Mimi's Pumpkin Patch.
• The image was colored with a variety of my Tombow Dual Brush Pens  and then cut to fit the front of the card. 
• Several Hero Arts Hues "Earth" Dots were placed around the image.
• I popped up the small golden pumpkin on the right side of Mimi with foam tabs for some added dimension.
