Ink Block Printing has been traced back to 617 AD in China as a method to print designs, letters and art on paper, cloth, pottery and other surfaces.  Over centuries, this type of printing using a carved impression in a block of wood, linoleum, rubber etc. has evolved into a popular art for printing cards and art on paper and materials.
