Have a Gocco Christmas

I had all sorts of wild plans to handwrite and stamp this years christmas cards but I failed miserably so I had to come up with something different. That’s when I thought about my Gocco screen printer and checked to see if there were baubles left – only two, just enough!

I forgot how much fun it is to use a Gocco as it has been ages since I’ve last used it.

It’s so simple and I can recommend to read in to owning a Gocco as it will make life so much more fun owning one. As from now on I’ll start to use mine over and over again.

I went for my two favourite dress colours, navy and pink, and used white paint for the print on the card.

How funny that I’ve yet made a double Dutch error as the card is in English only the en between Boris and Yvonne should be an and and not a Dutch en. Ah well it’s printed now and I love it!

  7. Wow, these look amazing, Yvonne! Well done!

  8. The cards are lovely Yvonne, but I’ve actually been admiring the “Make” poster in the background. Did you make that as well? It’s really awesome.

  9. Very cool! I want a Gocco too. And about the error, that is how it is in a bilingual world… I find it charming. :D

  10. Oh no, you’ve started it again. Now I am going to be obsessed with the idea of buying a gocco for weeks. These turned out beautifully! :-)

  11. hoi hoi, grappig de (en/and) vergissing :-) ik vind ze superleuk zoals trouwens
    je gehele blog ! Groetjes Ellen

  12. the “en” is the part i love the most.
    great job sweetie.
    xo

  13. Gvd Yvonne, nou wil ik dus ook zo’n ding.
    Thanks for sharing ;-)

    Bij ooit baby nr 2 maak ik dan zelf de kaartjes.
    En kijk uit naar het Y en B xmas kaartje in de brievenbus als ik thuis kom.
    Of is dat too cheeky?

  14. O, M, G!!! Growing up in Japan in the late 70s and 80s, the majority of the New Year’s cards exchanged among my friends was done by Print Gocco. I can’t believe they still exist. I checked out their web site only to find out that they will discontinue the production in a few weeks. Thanks for sharing your project. I love your design and your color choice.

  15. I didnt notice the en until you mentioned it :)

    I do the same thing the other way around when I am typing in Dutch, I type and instead of en. It just comes automatically. The cards are lovely.

  16. Mooi!

  17. Ow wat een super leuke kerstkaarten! Geweldig idee!

  18. So beautiful! I used to have a Gocco PG-10… made some lovely prints from them, but it sadly it had to go as parts became too costly for me to purchase and I needed the money mainly for my studies *sniff*… but we made beautiful good times :D

    Thanks for sharing and keep up your pretty blog!

  19. Super leuk gevonden! Ik vind ook dat je design van het kaartje supertof is.. Ik ben daar een leek in maar mag ik vragen hoe dat je de design zelf gemaakt hebt? Programma ( en hoe dan) of met de hand?

    Groetjes!
