Linocut on Dictionary Page Craft Party!

It all started with this very cool dictionary.... Courtney Prahl taught a great class last night- linocuts on dictionary pages! 
 



 Courtney taught us how to transfer a design onto our carving surface.  Some people chose to trace a design and some brave creative souls drew their own design.  We learned how to safely and easily carve the blocks.


 After they were all carved, we searched the dictionary for the perfect page to hand pull our prints onto.  Cardstock and other specialty papers were also used.
 Here are the final results!  Everyone got to take home their carving so they can reuse it to make stationary or more art!
