Pressed Flower Printed Greeting Card Workshop for Adults
Description
Design your own set of printed greeting cards using pressed flowers.
Spend a relaxing afternoon making your own artwork with pressed flowers. Make one to three designs using flowers from my Norfolk garden. At the end of the workshop your artwork will be collected. The artwork is then scanned using a high resolution scanner and made into a set of 6 printed greeting cards. The cards and your original artwork will then be dispatched to you, ready to treasure or share with loved ones.
This workshop is perfect for beginners. So come along and join a relaxing afternoon of crafting.
18+ only.

FAQs
- How old do you need to be to attend the workshop?
Participants must be 18 or over on the date of the workshop.
- Is this workshop suitable for beginners?

The natural beauty of the materials means every piece is unique and something to be proud of.

Our adult craft workshop offers your loved one a chance to relax, and explore their creativity, whilst making something beautiful.
