'Snowflake' blind embossing print




I was going to make Christmas cards out of this print this year, however, when the plate and paper had been through the press I decided that the border around the print was far too small and the print needed to 'breathe'. The only thing to do was to allow for a bigger border around the image and this is the result which I am really pleased with.
It is a joy to make these blind embossing prints right now, seeing them emerge from the flat paper and the resulting impression with the play of light and shadow from this cool winter sun.






The prints are in a limited edition of fifty and some are available in my etsy shop.
