I’m making some gifts for the holidays and decided to try lino printing. I drew and carved this stamp out as a first test run and I really love the results. Going to be making some more real soon!

Do you just buy a block of rubber to carve? Curious as it seems like something that might be up my alley!
Yup! I got the Speedball Speedy-Carve pink blocks, the interchangeable carving tools from Flexcut and the Speedball soft brayer. For the ink I used the Speedball fabric ink. It was very fun going through the whole process!
There are cheaper options for the carving tools but the ones I tried were just not working for me so I opted for the more expensive Flexcuts and they were so worth it.
