A smooth sea - Linoprint / Letterpress


A smooth sea - Linoprint / Letterpress
This letterpress eco-friendly greeting card began as an illustration - then became a hand carved linocut - then a linoprint and finally went through our letterpress platen a number of times, phew!
Florrie is our much loved, beautifully restored treadle based letterpress platen and was built in 1872.
This card is wonderfully tactile as the image is de-bossed into the soft, luxurious tree-free card.
