Stamp Carving for Hand-Printed Holiday Cards

Learn to use linocut tools to carve your own stamp designs and print cards for the holidays, or any time! This class will cover carving techniques, inking, and printing your stamps to make custom, hand-printed holiday cards. 

 

Participants receive a carving block approximately 4x5 inches in size. You can carve one large design or a few smaller ones. You’ll stamp a few cards using your designs in class, and then take your stamps home to create more cards on your own.
