Actually I want to print the front papers too, in a different colour scheme, so there should be a follow-up at some point ;) But for now let me show you some process pictures of the actual printing!

I’ve made it to the test print! …but let’s first pick up where we left 😌️
So I’ve reworked the base hexagonal tile for my repeat pattern.
It’s been a moment since I last tried my hand at repeating patterns, or stamp carving. Today I’m diving back with an obviously much too ambitious project: carving a stamp for an hexagon-based pattern – also, small enough to repeat on the “end papers” of my A6-size sketchbook 😅️.
Sorry (not too sorry ;)), this will be a long one! At the time I would have been supposed to write the June letter I was in Swedish Lapland, paddling in a packraft, sleeping in a hammock, hiking in a pathless forest, or driving our camper van… It was a bit too much so I had to skip the letter – but shot all the more photos 😅.
This month (as opposed to the last) I found a lot to choose from, both art-wise and photo-wise, so here’s an eclectic mix – plus our artist of the month. Enjoy! :)
