Cost: £12

Max number of attendees at make and Take: 5

Information about this workshop: 

Learn how to design and carve nature themed relief lino prints in a friendly and supportive environment. Use your own image, a picture from the web or one of Hannah’s – you do not have to be able to draw! If you have your own idea about a specific design you would like to attempt to carve then please bring it with you (the Essdee MasterCut lino blocks are 15cm x 15cm) and I will show you how to carve and print it.

You will then learn how to transfer this image onto lino, to safely cut it out, and then hand print it onto blank greetings cards ready to take home at the end of the session!
