Print Your Own Christmas Cards

Workshop tickets are excluded from any online discounts.

Design and create your own Christmas cards, in this block printing workshop led by artist and illustrator Isabella Mitchell. In this two and a half hour workshop, you will learn the techniques behind the linocut printing process, all whilst creating your hand-printed designs.

You will develop a series of festive patterns through playful experimentation, using your own and preprepared block prints. By the end of the session, you will have created up to 20 hand-printed Christmas cards to give to family and friends, in addition to your own linocut design to continue with printmaking at home.

All levels and abilities are welcome. In this workshop, you will:

Be shown how to create your own lino-cut block print, which you can take home after.
Learn tips and techniques on how to block print while experimenting with a variety of blocks and printing inks.
Create up to 20 of your own hand-printed Christmas cards, to gift to family and friends. Please note, we will be using water-based inks, which should be touch dry in a matter of hours, allowing you to take your cards home from the session. However, if you can collect your cards at a later date, you may wish to leave your cards overnight to dry fully before collecting.
