For Sale: Scoot's Christmas Creations (cards & prints)

Hand-printed A4 letterpress posters.
**£5 unframed or £10 framed. **

(FYI I'm doing another one tomorrow as well with the immortal Eddie Izzard quote: 'Cake or Death' if anyone knows any Izzard enthusiasts)

'Deconstructed Christmas Tree'
Risographed cards, slightly smaller than A5. More like postcards actually because they are flat, not folded. Blank on the other side. Comes with a brown self-seal envelope.
£1 each or 5 for £4.

If you'd like something please PM me. Delivery would depend...I can leave things at LMNH to be picked up or deliver in central/north/east in the evenings. I will post but only special/recorded delivery because the rest of the RM system is fucked.

Christmas love!

not posting postcards?

have a bump

I feel like I should explain the quote on the poster, since it may not seem that cheerful but hear me out. It's my take on the whole slogan poster thing. It took me several weeks of questioning my entire experience of the life and things I've learned to get to it.

The point is that while you should always hope that things will turn out great and be optimistic (and I really do mean that, a cheerful outlook on life is essential to happiness), you should always accept that things might not and rather than be caught unawares, if you already have a plan of action, it makes the worst case scenario a lot less terrible. Also, confronting the idea of the worst-case scenario in the first place and making practical decisions based around it often disperses much of the anxiety of the thing happening anyway, and it becomes not a dark cloud of worry about but simply a different, less appealing outcome. So even though people read it as 'expect the worst', it's really not, it's encouraging you to be prepared if the worst does come to pass.

I may be interested in "cake or death"...

Oh 'cake or death'

More details please

I'm doing 'Cake or death' tomorrow

and if there's demand for it: 'NEVER put a sock in a toaster'

that's rad. basically a translation of the slogan that we used in firefighting. I'll take a framed one, the one on the top left please, with the slightly ratty blue letters.

I'd buy one if you fill it up with some generic wishes and post it to me.

bikeradar is that way EEl >>

The tree one is fantastic, I'll take 4 please. PMed.

PM bump...

Can I get a set of postcards? pickup tonight/tomorrow morning?

I'll be in KT tomorrow morning if you want to get them from me then?

I bought some self-seal brown envelopes for the cards. They look mighty impressive!

have ya had time to frame them yet? I might be coming by to meet Pepe later

All the prints are still drying in the letterpress workshop I'm afraid so you won't be able to pick them up tonight. You could come tomorrow and get it or I can bring it to Easts on wed?

I finished setting the cake or death print but the letterpress technician is DJing funk and soul records at the christmas party so wanted to close early so I couldn't print them. Here's a picture of it though

Easts on Wed it it :) and that looks sweet !

"covered in beeeeees"

All the prints are still drying

I finished setting the cake or death print but the letterpress technician is

Excuses.

Cake or death please. Will pm re collection.

Requesting a "with the thin bit" print.

Worthy bump.

what kind of frames?
want 5 deconstructed trees and a cake or death.
need to work out collection, maybe I can get to yours/your work on the weekend.

This is the frame. The print is one of the misprinted and misaligned ones that I've kept for myself, the proper ones will be more centered in the frame.

ooh, will take it framed plz

^ done!

I am mega excited about the Izzard prints. I went to a comedy club tonight to see an acquaintance do a short set, and whilst having a fag outside I was telling my friend that I was making the 'cake or death' prints for my family, the guy on the door said that Eddie Izzard himself is doing a secret gig at the club in the near future. If I make it I will definitely present him with a print!

Cake or death printed and drying in the workshop, will be collecting on tuesday

and the hope for the best prints have been trimmed, signed, numbered and framed!

I am mega excited about the Izzard prints.

So am I. I'd like two please, not just one.

Are they ready to collect now, or on Tuesday? Sumo and I may be making the wrong plans.
