Last-Minute Christmas Techniques: Block Printing a Robin

If you haven't yet made some cards or gift tags for Christmas, or even some personalized gift-wrap, lino printing is a quick technique to use. My stylized robin is relatively simple to cut and has two colors which don't overlap. This means you can print both blocks at the same time without waiting one color to dry first. The alignment of the blocks isn't critical either; you can simply eyeball it.
