Christmas Down Under is all about the sun and surf and stars and cicadas and the lemony scent of gum trees after the rain and beautiful fresh fruit and summer holidays. The colours are bright and hot and fresh and salt and this is what this set of four cards is all about!
This card set features four different designs. The designs are based on my original hand carved stamps. However, the final designs have been riso printed with four different colours onto warm white card. Inside is left blank for you to leave a personalised message.
The cards comes with recycled brown kraft paper envelopes.
The dimension of each card is 10.5 x 14.8 cm (4.1' x 5.8').
What is a riso print?
A Risograph is a digital duplicator machine that is similar to a photocopying machine although it is not a copier. The process can be likened to high speed silk screen printing. The result has a handcrafted look and there can sometimes be imperfections which is part of the charm of riso printing. The ink used is a soy oil based ink.

Rowan is committed to slow art and appreciates the joy and satisfaction that comes with working by hand. Rowan prints all of her original linoprints in the front sunroom of her house in Lewisham, Sydney. It is a small space (no room for a big press), but a happy and productive one, proving that you don't need a lot of room to make beautiful art.
