Christmas in Gold and Ink - A Lino Printing & Gold Leaf Workshop

A festive day of lino printing and gold leaf. Design, carve and print your own unique Christmas cards with a little seasonal sparkle! Set within ArtSpace Gallery at Cambridge Artworks, this special one-day workshop is a chance to escape the everyday, indulge your creative side and enjoy the simple pleasure of making something truly individual. Perfect for beginners, you’ll be guided through the process of drawing and carving your own lino printing plate, creating a festive design inspired by the charm and simplicity of Christmas. You’ll then learn how to print your design, experimenting with colour and composition to produce your own collection of handmade Christmas cards. To finish, we’ll explore the art of gold leaf embellishment, adding delicate touches of gold to your prints for a little extra sparkle. The combination of traditional lino printing and lustrous gold details creates a collection of truly individual cards, each one made by you. You’ll leave with your own hand-carved lino plate and a collection of individually printed and gold-leaf embellished Christmas cards, ready to send to friends and family or treasure as little works of art. A lovely way to welcome the festive season, enjoy a day of creative indulgence and make something wonderfully special with your own hands.
