How it is done:

Start by washing the cushion cover to remove any finish residues.
Use the transfer paper and a soft pencil to transfer the two individual design elements onto the two linoleum plates. Templates that you can easily trace can be found online.
Use the linoleum printing tool to cut the plates so that the surfaces of the designs are raised.
Now start by printing the car design. Place a piece of cardboard inside the cushion cover to prevent the paint from soaking through to the other side. Apply some paint to the foam roller and roll this onto the soft rubber plate. Next, press the design onto the middle of the cushion cover. Repeat the process with the second element, the Christmas tree.
