Woodblock Dandelion Sympathy

 I'm finally remembering to join in with Amy's Woodblock Wednesday Challenge today. Heaven knows I have LOTS of older and some new woodblock stamps!


Both of the stamps I used on this card are wood block as shown below -  the Dandelion stamp is newer, purchased at Michaels and the sentiment is very old from Simply Stamped. I stamped both stamps and then partially stenciled around the image.
I drew the frame lines with a Gold Sharpie and a ruler, tied the twine around the panel before adhering it to the card base and added 3 enamel dots.
I got this posted just in time - as this challenge end's on 3/4!



Stamps: Wooden stamps: Dandelion - Recollections, with Deepest Sympathy - Simply Stamped
Paper: Vintage Cream - PTI
Ink: Nocturne - Versafine Clair, Lavender Fields - Altenew
Accessories: Bubble Wrap Stencil - Altenew, purple twine, metallic gold Sharpie, ruler, enamel dots
