The "Birthday Cake" linocut postcards were printed by me with Schmincke linocut ink on second-hand purchased colored paper.
Each postcard is sold with its envelope.
They are signed on the front, bottom right.
Dimensions: 10 x 15 cm

A lovely way to wish a loved one a happy birthday!


TO KNOW :

- The cards are sold individually: you can choose your option based on the color of the paper (pink, yellow, blue and orange).

- All my prints are handmade, which is why each print is a little different and therefore unique.

- To avoid any overpackaging and overconsumption, the cards are wrapped with a little tissue paper and slipped into a cardboard or bubble envelope to which I give a second life. The shipment is accompanied by a tracking number, a small linocut business card and a few sweet words.



LINOGRAVING PROCESS:

- Drawing: This is the first step of creation. It can be done directly on linoleum, or on paper. It is then transferred to the linoleum.

- Engraving: We then move on to engraving using a gouge whose curved shape and blade allow the linoleum to be easily hollowed out.

- Inking: Next comes inking using an inking roller which allows you to deposit a thin layer of ink.

- Printing: We finish with printing by placing a sheet of paper on the linoleum plate and to which we apply strong pressure using a press or a baren or a spoon.
