Printmaking!!


In class today, we made a stamp and printed it to paper. First, you draw what you want to print on tracing paper. Then, flip the tracing paper, so the print comes out right, and apply the pattern onto the rubber. Carve everything outside the pattern and it'll be ready for printing. Finally, you just apply ink to your roller then your carved stamp. And print your design to paper. Overall I really enjoyed carving the rubber stamp and printing it out. Although I would have loved to be able to print with more colors.
