Zig Zag, a WordPress weekly photo challenge

Timely, because I was just cutting a new lino, so hello WordPress weekly photo challenge.

I’m trying to figure out how to cross lines and still represent the image. It’s a bit tougher than I thought, but, other people can manage, so how hard can it be anyway?

Except that nothing is ever as straight forward as all that.

Here is a little stamp of weeds plus a butterfly, (on a 1912 dictionary page with the word straight), on top of a new, and more elaborate lino of oak leaves.

Now back to my zigging and a zagging around with my blades. 😀

Right in there with WordPress and Zig Zag 😀

    I like it, Veronica. Our younger daughter’s into print making, so I enjoying seeing prints. I like your use of paper for the background.

    So pretty! Lovely details in your design. I haven’t tried hand carving stamps yet, but I agree on using old pages from worn out books – they add so much texture and character 🙂

    If Stradivarius used blades. That’s the first word I saw on your page. Great zig zagging.
