Oops, I figured it out :)
Sorry for the havoc on the wall now :)
Really love the placemat prints. I think you should try cutting them out and making shapes from them. Or doing stencils of them for etchings. They could be interesting for soft ground textures too.

Gloriously Kitsch

We where experimenting with doilies today (when we where supposed to be working), the result was interesting, as you can see the print turned out really nicely. The emboss was also of interest, maybe next time we won't ink it up and just try blind emboss instead. i have visions of hundreds of doilies (maybe play around with the colours a bit??), and other kitch materials, florid and flamboyant! let the search for kitsch begin! just goes to show the wierd and wonderful things you can use to print...

anyone who might be interested in the history of printmaking might want to check out the link :)
