Today Fiona and I printed our 2020 new year cards. The tradition in our household is to send new year postcards rather than Christmas cards.
My cards were printed using very old wood type - a bit rough and the numbers came from the 'random numbers' draw-tray. I chose strong orange as a healing colour - though it printed much darker on the cream paper.

Doing a little bit of letterpress work was a good way to start the year. So from us and
our press we send a message of hope and healing for 2020.
