PRINTMAKING: Tea Towel

I have wanted to try out Martha Stewart's new craft paint and finally had a little time to get back to my crafts (I'm taking a 9 week break from my MBA program!).  This print was inspired by a favorite design by Egg Press.  

How to: I carved out my stamp out of foam and glued it to an acrylic block. I then used Martha Stewart's Satin Craft Paint in Blueberry and printed on pre-washed Tea Towels. I made a set of two and they look great! I love the handmade look to it with all the imperfections. Enjoy!
