Linoleum Block Printing

We did linoleum block printing in art class when I was in high school. I've not done it since but reading an article by Deanna Samaan, How to Design Holiday Cards for Linoleum Block Printing reminded me how much I enjoyed it. Perhaps a trip to the craft store is in order. Back in school we drew our design on paper (it was art class after all) but these days I'd probably use the computer to come up with a design. The design tips in Samaan's article would still apply. Here are some additional articles on linoleum block printing:
