Blue Christmas: Cyanotype Christmas Cards

Create around 15 unique Christmas cards in deep blue using the historic cyanotype technique and take them home ready to send. No experience needed.

What it's about

In cyanotype, also known as sun printing, your motifs leave their trace on light-sensitive paper. Exposure and rinsing reveal the signature deep blue prints. Thanks to our UV lamps, it works even on grey winter days.

Mix and match prepared motif films, shapes and dried flowers however you like. While applying the solution, play with brushstrokes, stripes and open areas. Every card turns out one of a kind.
