Timbres de Noël : 12 projets de Noël

Back in 2013 I worked on a woodblock printing project – and I thought I’d revisit this as it’s such an easy way to create your own ink stamps – and with Christmas around the corner it’s a great way to personalise cards, gift wrap and tags. The files to cut your own version of these stamps are compatible with VCarve Pro 7.5 and Aspire 4.5.

So I drew up some quick designs (three Christmas trees) and then using the trace bitmap option in the software I had some vectors made pretty quickly, with just a few minutes spent cleaning them up.
Using some MDF offcuts we ran the file on the CNC machine and cut the pattern using a 60⁰ 0.5” V-Bit at a flat depth of 0.125” in order to create a shallow cut. The rest of the material around the design was then pocketed and profiled with a 0.25” End Mill. This was very easy and quick to machine.
I thought about some Christmassy things that I could print such as tags, gift wrap & cards. So I took to my printing inks and was quickly stamping away.J'ai utilisé des encres noires et vertes pour imprimer sur du papier cadeau, des étiquettes et des cartes. J'ai ajouté des paillettes à certaines pour une touche festive ! Ces créations permettent de réaliser de jolies cartes et étiquettes personnalisées, mais aussi de fabriquer de superbes tampons pour les enfants ! J'ai également confectionné des cartes de Noël pour tous mes collègues, qui ont reçu de nombreux compliments, mais malheureusement, je n'ai pas pu les prendre en photo.
