It’s the last Wednesday in February (and our son’s birthday!), so it’s also Woodblock Wednesday hosted by Amy Tsuruta.
I’m in need of thank you cards, so I decided to pull out a favorite woodblock stamp by Paper Parachute and, for inspiration, five cards from the Color Cube which I’ve owned for several months but never used. As you can see, each card features a photograph (and inspiration for photography) as well as five colors drawn from the photo. I chose three of the colors from each card to color the floral design with Copic markers. I was a bit apprehensive trying to color such a small image with Copics but it actually went pretty well. I ended up with five thank you notes.
All five cards use the same products, so I’ll just share them one by one. Some of the different color schemes produce cards with a different vibe which is nice when deciding which one to use for a note.
I’ll be back later tonight with a birthday post for Matt. I’m hoping the girls will be receptive to a photo with their dad. Either way, I’ll be back to share his birthday card.
I love this thank you cards!! They are so adorable and you matched up the colored really well!

Your thank you cards are darling! I love how you used Color Cubes to guide your coloring.
oh my goodness, so gorgeous Karen! Love them all!
Thanks so much for joining in the Woodblock Wednesday fun!
Just changing the colour combination certainly gave each card a different feel & look. All beautiful.
I’ve missed a few posts and enjoyed my visit down the hall, Karen! I am going to send a link to this post to a friend of mine. She would love to see these fabulous results of how you used your Color Cube to make your pretty thank you cards! (Makes me want to get them, too!) I’m also going to add this to the Board for inspiration. Hugs, Darnell
