Top Tip
If you have small details cut into the bunny you might find the ink builds up after a few prints and loses detail. Simply wash and dry the lino and start to print again
How to Make
- Draw your bunny character onto the lino and carefully cut out. Cut around the bunny's shape so you can see its positioning when printing.
- Cut coloured card to size (to fit your envelopes), or use pre cut card blanks.
- Print your bunnies onto the cards using printing ink.
- Apply a small amount of printing ink to a sheet of plastic and roll over the ink until there is a thin covering on the roller. It should make a tacky sound.
- Roll the ink onto the lino.
- Press firmly onto the card and roll over with a clean roller. Remove carefully and allow to dry thoroughly.
- Add hand drawn eyes and whiskers.
- Create fun envelope liners by tracing around your envelopes (while the flap is open in a house shape) onto patterned paper.
- Cut the shape out about 1cm smaller on all sides apart from the bottom so that it sits inside the envelope and doesn't cover the gum on the flap.
- Fix in place with double sided tape.
