Papergirl Leeds - Do Day Screen Printing

After getting prepared, we were all set for our session of screen printing. Using the left over paint from the previous day, we mixed together more so that the colours were the same and we got to work.


We began with the flyers, getting as many as we could done on the long strips of brown paper shown on the right in the picture above. Followed by getting the posters done, having one of us printing while the other took the prints to the drying rack, and then then the same with the hotdog books. We got all of them printed that we needed, and just had Lisa come back a few days later to get the bags printed as we ran out of time to be able to get them done. In all, the printing day was really successful.

Lisa cut out the flyers ready to take down to the Papergirl Leeds location to have around as an extra way to promote the day, along with a few posters for them to put up. I cut out and folded all of the hotdog books. All that really needs to be done now is to just get the word around about the day, and wait for the things we ordered online to come in the post ready for the day. Also, I needed to do the t-shirts.


I got them done when I got back from Amsterdam as I didn't have time before. I printed the designs on to the t shirt transfer paper and ironed them on. They looked good once they were done, and I think will give a little extra to the day.
