Printing fun....without the sun!!

What a drab....dull....depressing...

....apology for a "summer" we seem to be having here!!!

Grrrrrr!

...and looking at the jet stream forecast, I can't see any respite for this week AGAIN!

Top temperatures 18 or 19 degrees and that's about it!

But,

...never mind she said to herself......

...let's get the printing gear out and have some fun...

..making "summer type things"...

...for a craft fair later in the year :-)))


The first thing that needed to be sorted was some replacement Prayer Flags....

...as mine have been ripped off and tossed to the wind...

so these....



..were done with this beautiful Tibetan hand-carved print block.....



(singles look like this...)



..and larger ones...



...are done on this...even MORE beautiful block!



Happy enough as I was, to get those done, I had been asked to make some bunting for a friend...

..so...

...more print blocks were pressed into service to make these...



and these.....



...and these...



...and then these...



Now, all I've got to do is stitch them onto their tapes!!!!
