Let it swim
psst. I just listed the last one of each Live What You Love print from edition 7 and 8 + the special edition 2010. I usually keep the last one just in case my customers claim it lost or damaged… and these are unclaimed for while now so I decided to list them — if you see your color, please gram them as I might not be reprinting them :)
UPDATE :: ALL SOLD OUT! THANK YOU SO MUCH!
Quick announcement for some shop updates…
LWYL 8th edition was already getting so low that I printed some of the 9th edition ((more colors to come!))
I must admit when the Vandercook is all pink, it makes me happy :)
Pink (I hadn’t printed 8×10 pink in a while!):
and a few people have asked me if I ever print this again… so I did! FLOSS mini letterpress prints are back :) Only 12 available!
Thank you for looking :)
Yes, you heard it right. I am giving away this new SMILE letterpress print in yellow that I just printed! “SMILE” is absolutely one of my favorite words and the gray ones got all sold out so I decided to print more… in yellow this time!
It is in 5×7 inches, letterpressed by hand using vintage wood type blocks on 110lb, 100% cotton Lettra Pearl White paper with soy-based yellow ink – means it’s very eco-friendly! Limited to only 60 prints.
Here are some behind-the-scene photos…
Adjusting its placement and the impression.
Wood type all set, yellow ink set, and ready to print.
Hot off the press…
and here is the final product!
((the dachshund is from DAXDACHS in Ginza Tokyo and the little jewelry box is from Suga Jewelry.))

Just wanted to let you know that I have printed Live What You Love 8th edition and they are all available at my etsy shop now. It is a little bit smaller edition since I only had 1 day, but some new colors to enjoy :) Hope you like them.
This color is new… I call it “cerulean blue” — I love how it came out!
Hot off the press:
And here are all 7 of them.
Red is a bit darker and richer this time and light grey is really warm this time. I printed green first time in a long time (since the first edition)!
