Some time ago I carved some lino, months later I finally got around to doing some printing. I have to say that there is something truly relaxing and wonderful about hand pressing your own lino prints. I think this is one form of art/craft that I could really get into it. Lino printing is fun, inexpensive and you can get some wonderful looking products at the end of it. I printed lots of my little cupcakes in strong black ink, check it out...
And that brings me to the second part of this post - the giveaway! To celebrate The Red Deer receiving more than 1,000 comments I would love to send some cupcake prints to 3 of my fantastic readers. If you would like a chance to win all you have to do is leave a comment telling me what you like best about The Red Deer blog and what your favourite colour is. That is it! The giveaway will end next Tuesday the 25th of August at 12:00 pm. So get commenting :D

Hi Alicia,
Congratulations on your 1000 comments, that's awesome! :)
You did a great job with the lino, I remember doing that in Art @ school.
I've been on holidays so will come back later and catch up properly but wanted to enter your give away. The best thing about The Red Deer blog is the photos of all the cool stuff you make (inc Zoe!) AND the mosaic photo tiles always look amazing. My favourite colour is Red :)
Can't wait to see more prints that you do :)
