Screen printing - the failure of the crown layer

With having the two layers of the design done, the crowns were then screen printed. Metallic binder was mixed to create the gold binder. It was found that because the alignment of the women didn't exactly match up to the positive, the line of crowns also didn't match up, therefore not be able to use them. To sort out the problem, the crowns were printed one by one, however this was a lengthy process of what seemed to not give the bets results also, so it was deiced to abandon the idea. With the other screen having been ripped, the process was started again and the other positives were exposed. With the other screen, the backs were aligned with using the individual screen mats (not very well) to the repeated pattern. The layer of the woman was aligned but however didn't block out the crops marks so therefore the wrong alignment was clear.
