Saturday = DIY day! (Img)


For those of you who don't know, Pink Ponies has a shop on Etsy (an online marketplace for handmade goods).

The Pink Ponies Etsy team is led by a few GenY entrepreneurs with online shops on Etsy.com. Together, the Pink Ponies professional network and Etsy team leaders provide members with tools to help with business development and brand marketing. Our team promotes peer-coaching, collaborative projects and networking events in an effort to leverage the creativity of the entire group as a means to keep every member focused on running a profitable shop.

While we're good at organizing our team, our store is a bit ... empty. This Saturday we finally added another greeting card to our list of stuff on Etsy. If only time were infinite, and talent were easier to come by, we'd fill our online shelves with more stationery. Till then, here's our first lino cut printmaking project:

Step 1. Research Linocut Printmaking


Step 2. Draw the image or design on block
Step 3. Carve linoleum block

Step 4. Refine carved edges

Step 5. Create an impression using paint

Step 6. Add watercolor details

Step 7. Examine for cuteness


Complete!!!

Please visit our team on Etsy to see all the cool stuff we make!!!

Thanks!
