Children’s drawings are so fresh and authentic. Before the kids get to that censoring stage and when they still draw with confidence. As a parent you could make a thermofax screen from these line drawings and then print invitations, note cards or t-shirts.
I made this screen from my nephew’s sketch that he did a few years ago.
- Save some of your children’s drawings
- Photocopy them to the correct size with a toner based copy machine
- Get a Thermofax screen made
- Set up your workspace
- Prepare your papers or materials for printing
- And pull your prints
I was thinking that this drawing would make a cool invitation.
