Happy Halloween

Here at Cut & Stick HQ we've been busy crafting for Halloween; from pumpkin carving to lino cutting, sewing and printing, we've been having a lot of fun creating a whole host of spooky bits and bobs to get us ready for Halloween.

We have hand printed cobweb wrapping paper, made paper pumpkins (which are super easy to do) and created Trick or Treat matchboxes, which contain either a handmade spooky ghost or super-cute pumpkin.

Halloween is the perfect excuse to get your craft on!

Spud you like
























Take a potato (or few), some paint, paper, blank cards, brown wrap, gift tags - whatever you have to hand and lose yourself in the innocent art of potato printing.

Simple geometric shapes are easiest to carve into the spud and look really good when repeated... think circles to make big dotty gift wrap, triangles repeated into patterns on cards, simple hearts printed on crisp white tags ... you get the picture. Have fun getting your print on!
