It's Woodblock Wednesday time again. - I missed last month because I got my card finished late and wasn't able to post it. So I decided to just save it back and post it for July instead!
Here is my card:
For this card I used 2 woodblock stamps. The Sunflower is from DJ Inkers and is called, Big Bloom. They no longer manufacture rubber stamps. The sentiment stamp is from Inkadinkado.
I stamped the Sunflower on Water Color paper with VersaFine Clair Nocturne ink. The I used water color paints and a water brush to pain the image. Once it was dry I splattered distressed Mics spray onto the image. I ended up doing 2 images since I got a bit carried away with the spray on the first one and didn't like how it looked.
The sentiment was stamped with the same ink and fussy cut.
I used a New Sunflower Embossing Folder that I purchased from Unity stamps. It is not the same one the SU carries. I used Summer Sun card stock (retired SU color) the card base is Bermuda Bay, also a retired SU color. I added some enamel dots (Paper studio) to complete the card. Image was mounted with foam tape and cut with a Rectangle die from Unity stamps.

What a great card this is. I love the sunflower. I don't have very many wood block stamps
ReplyDeleteWonderful card and lovely shine with the splatters! I think we all love sunflowers and the summer warmth it evokes.
ReplyDeleteP.S. Does it matter if your woodblock stamps were removed from the wood? Asking for a friend...
Ida, this is a beauty! Love the watercoloring.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for joining me for Woodblock Wednesday!
I love this big, wonderful DJ Inkers sunflower! I had a bunch of their stamps, but most are gone now as they looked really dated, but some, like this, are timeless. Your embossing folder is perfect with it!
