I am always looking for new ideas for my personal Christmas cards. Linocuts offer the solution nine times out of ten, and family and friends are always thrilled to receive and collect them. This year I am going back to an idea I had a few years ago, printing a tiny Linocut on to teabags. I have a box of washed, dried and pressed teabags just waiting for something a little special to happen to them. They do take time to open, clean and tear apart, but after washing ,drying them between tissue, and placing them under the press…I have a little stack of tiny printing paper that is well worth the effort. The paper is a perfect recipient for the ink, and the colour is gorgeous. So time for another cup of tea…
