Event Overview

We’ll be printing our cards using the lino-cut technique. A great and simple technique, that allows you to easily mass-produce your beautiful, hand-made cards.


In this 2-hour workshop you will:


·       Learn the fundamentals of lino-printing; from drawing and carving your image, to inking and printing.


·       Create: you can choose to do a larger lino-cut or a few smaller ones that you can use as stamps. The smaller ones will be great to use for the inside of your card


·       Can bring your own images for inspiration, but don’t worry if you don’t have any, plenty of inspiring images and ideas will be provided.


·       Will have a great time! Lino-cutting is a very forgiving medium, so whatever you make will look great!


·       Take it one step further: To make your message beautiful both in words and visually, we will talk about some simple tips & tricks to make your card an overall artwork.


 


You will get to take your stamp home so you can continue to make cards at home too!

    Lino Cut printmaking class was fun. It was the perfect-sized class and had enough materials for everyone to use. The instructor was nice, patient and helpful. She made sure that each of us got to see the demo and learn how to use the tools. I also appreciated that there were images to chose from and had time to make extra prints.

    This class was very fun and can accommodate multiple levels. You can bring your own design idea or trace an idea from a book. Simon was a very patient teacher and everyone walked out satisfied with their print!

    This class was completely hands on. She gave a brief overview of each step as we did it, instead of explaining everything at once which I liked. I also liked that we all chose our own designs so each print was unique!

    This class was relaxed but super informative. I especially loved that Nicole gave us an intro, but she was great at letting us get our hands dirty right away! She explained the most important stuff first and then helped us along as we went. I really felt like I took away skills that I could use on my own.

    Really enjoyed learning Lino Cut — feels like a new great hobby to pick up. This class was a lot of fun and definitely more challenging than one thinks. Definitely recommended!
