Like our other printing kits, this one also includes some nifty little templates to get you started on your printing project. A selection of 5 ink colours let you make some bright, individual cards and gift wrap. Suitable for those wanting to learn without spending lots of money on equipment.
It’s such a therapeutic thing placing the stamps on paper, creating a pattern and building up the colour and vibrancy. The gift wrap can add a special touch to your gifts to those special ones in your life. Why not use a section of it and frame it, to add a pop of colour in your home.
We give you little 50ml bottles of ink, plenty to print your way to happiness! The ink is water based so will wash off easily in soap and water and ideal if you want to make this a project that you can do with children. The ink will take a couple of days in a warm room to dry properly, so leave time to make gift wrap before wrapping.

The lino blocks in the kit can be cut into smaller sizes using the craft knife and a bread board, to make more stamps and are good to practice with before doing something with the larger block.
What can I do with my kit once I’ve printed everything?
You now have a lino cutting kit which you could use to print on any paper, the ink is not suitable for fabric printing though. Make more cards and wrapping paper or paper gift bags. Create larger prints and frame them.
The cutting kit will help you get to grips with the basics before moving onto bigger projects.
