I've got 3 new designs in my shop; something a little different this time - no linocuts but still plenty of colour and pattern!
Perfect to send some cheer through the post 📮✉️😁

I've been making lots of cards for shops and it would make my day if I made an Etsy sale as well (it's gone a bit quiet over there)! 😁

This is a photo of my table covered in greeting cards. There are chairs in the background and also a dresser with a bunch of rather droopy, colourful tulips!

The rain and the grey skies feel relentless but it really won't be too long before the Spring flowers are here!

In the meantime, here are some bluebells from my linocut design: sarahrobinsondesigns.etsy.com/listing/1709...
This is a photograph of 4 greeting cards featuring a bluebell linocut design, carved in white onto different coloured backgrounds. They are lying on a table with spring flowers, including campion, forget-me-nots, cow parsley and bluebells.

I'm sure it's got darker rather than lighter since I got up this morning (it's raining, again!!) so here are some colourful cards, along with some flowers, to provide some cheer 💚

This is a photo of 4 greeting cards lying on a wooden table, along with some flowers which include marjoram, knapweed, fennel and ox-eye daisies. The cards are reproduced from linocuts and are each printed with a different coloured background.

This is a photograph of some printmaking in progress. There's a roller with a red handle loaded with mustard yellow ink, a lino block which is inked up with 2 colours, a wooden spoon which I use for transferring the print, and also 3 prints of the sun design which are printed onto khadi paper. This is a photograph of some printmaking in progress - it features my bird design (which I might call 'Hope'); this is printed in powder blue. There are a few of these prints lying on a table, along with a tube of paint and also a wooden spoon which I use to transfer the image from the lino block onto the paper.

Our local community orchard; providing food for wildlife and also showing some signs that winter is edging its way towards spring.
This is a photograph of a multitude of red apples on the ground in various stages of decay. The red of the fruit and green of the grass is a rich combination of colour, rarely seen in these grey, January days. Under a tree in the background is a clump of pretty, bright white snowdrops.

It's the time of year when demand for this linocut design is at its peak, although of course it does make a great anniversary card in any month! 🧡
