Give a one-of-a-kind gift for any occasion. The block printing process creates a unique print every time, meaning no two cards are ever the same.

The Process

Printmaking with Linocut Stamps

  • First, draw a design on the block - like a jackalope - and then carve it. Get all of the little cut marks low enough so they don’t show up on the print.

  • Next, ink the block. When you roll out the ink with the brayer there should be a sizzle noise and it’ll feel kind of sticky, not goopy.

  • Place your block face up and lay the paper on top of it.

  • Rub the back of the paper with the baren to transfer the ink.

  • Carefully peel the paper off of the stamp.

  • Enjoy your work! Let the ink dry for a couple of days (away from pets) and you’re all set.
