- Produce the ‘block’ by simply pressing lines and
areas into the special soft foam surface. Use a 4B
pencil or a ballpoint pen. For larger areas, press into the foam with a Popstick, spoon or similar blunt object.
-
Ink the surface with any kind of waterbased printing ink or paint with a foam roller. Carefully lay a sheet of paper over the inked surface and rub all over with a hard roller, or with the back of the spoon, or palm of the hand.
-
Peel off the print, slowly. Repeat the inking and rubbing for as many prints as desired.
Experiment with different coloured inks and different coloured papers.
-
To wash the block, simply hold under the tap or soak in a dish of water. The surface and lines
may be carefully cleaned with a soft brush. The block will store easily for future use, when completely dry.
