I finished 3 and 4 this morning, so after lunch I played with Ink and Paint.
The ink runs were pretty good so I switched over to the paint to get colour.
And........ I'm not happy
The paint is a different creature. It behaves in a much looser manner and I had some difficult loading the brayer.
I tried a couple directly to card stock.
Again not happy.
I can see the need for a bracket or brace for holding the lino block and aligning the card. Everything totally disappears using the heavier card stock.
Just like Goldilocks, one too little, one too much and one so-so.
And then because I love this fabric, I printed on on a scrap.

Try a different brayer with the paint. All look beautiful to me.
