In this winter morning workshop with artist and experienced tutor Sophie Boyce, you'll learn how to make festive stamps from lino and foam blocks. These stamps can then be used to create Christmas cards, gift tags, wrapping paper and much more!

During the class you'll be guided through the processes of transferring your image onto a lino or foam block, cutting out your design and mounting your work for stamping. You'll be supplied with materials for creating at least 6 cards, 20 gift tags and 1 metre of wrapping paper and at the end of the workshop you should have 2 to 3 festive stamps to take home to continue creating with!

All tools and materials are provided, but feel free to bring any special papers or surfaces of your own that you would like to print onto.

Please bring an apron with you and one or two designs (up to 7.5 cm square or 12 x 5 cm in size) that you would like to create a stamped image from. We'll also bring some inspiration to work from if you don’t have any immediate ideas!

We'll be serving lots of tea, coffee and homemade cake to help your crafting along.

This workshop is suitable for both beginners and also people with some prior knowledge of printmaking.

Sophie Boyce has a BA in Graphic Design & Illustration and an MA in Printmaking from UAL and is a practicing printmaker, artist and teacher.
