gocco printing madness
Lately, I have been selling out of some of my notecard inventory, so I decided that I need to get out the old Gocco printer and do some printing. I love my Gocco, but sometimes the clean-up can be a bear if you want to save and clean the screens. I also try to save my ink in little paint tubs (like an inch wide) and that can be a real mess too. Usually, you can tell what colors I have been using based on the various ink stains on my hands.
Last summer, my tree notecards were a very popular item for me. I am going to begin selling them in rainbow sets again - six color trees per set. I got some nice boxes to package them in and I can't wait for them to be ready to put in my shop.
Another design that has been popular lately is my little bird two color note cards. It is always fun to print in two colors, but it is also provides two chances to mess up the printing! I got enough good prints out of this batch, but I would have liked to have more. I also printed another two color design of a sailing puppy - lining up the colors on this print is even harder, so I ended up with even less. Overall though, I am happy with the work!




I love the vibrant colors in the rainbow tree sets! I can definitely see why they were a great seller for you.

Love those trees! The colors are fabulous. I have been contemplating a print gocco; if I had one I could walk into town covered in clay and ink! As if I'm not messy enough already...
