Fall cards using Woodblock Stamps

 Hi everyone.  I have 2 Fall cards today.  Can you tell I'm ready for Fall? I decided to make these cards using some woodblock stamps for Woodblock Wednesday that starts today hosted by my friend Amy Tsuruta

For my cards today I used some woodblock stamps that my Mom had bought me years ago.  It's a set of leaves, apple, pumpkin, and sentiments.  I love the set.  I started out with white cardstock 4 x 5.25 panel and stamped the leaves stamp with Catherine Pooler Mandarin Spice ink.  I liked how it looked as borders across my page.  I then took a blending brush and ink blended some Mandarin Spice all over my panel.

Next, I spritzed my panel with water and placed it into a embossing folder from Simon Says Stamp called Pinpoint Starlets. I love the texture. I then glued my panel to a A2 card base.  I stamped a sentiment from one the woodblocks in the set with black ink on white cardstock.  I then cut it to layer on some cardstock I ink blended with mandarin spice ink.  I glued them to my card and added some sequins to match.

On my second card, I also used the leaves woodblock stamp.  I chose not to stamp the whole panel this time.  I used Catherine Pooler Eucalyptus ink for this one.  

I also spritzed my panel with water and placed it in the same embossing folder but I made sure not to emboss the whole panel.  I then ink blended some Eucalyptus ink onto my panel.  I think it makes two different looks compared to my other card that I ink blended before going in the embossing folder with water. I ink blended some cardstock with eucalyptus ink and layered a different sentiment I had stamped from the woodblock stamps.  My panel was then glued to a A2 card base.  I added some sequins to match.  That finishes my 2 cards today.  I hope you like them.  I had fun making them.  Which card do you like better?
