More Gelli Plate Madness!

I get so many questions about what to do with a Gelli Plate print once you create it. The answer is it is up to your imagination! I have created cards, art journal pages, artist trading cards, used them on canvas just to name a few examples. I decided to make a video showing what I created with a print I made from a previous video. I hope you enjoy it!

Gelli Print Leftover Paint

The Gelli printing plate is so addicting that you spend a lot of time making prints (Now I have to think of cool projects in which to use the prints!). If you are like me, you do NOT want to waste any paint or ink during the process so always have on hand journal books, tags, or some kind of paper, cardboard, etc. to mop up the access paint and ink which in turn will give you even more backgrounds! Here is a photo of some prints I made using the plate then spraying or inking the background. The following photo contains many tags I created using just the leftover paint or ink that is on my Gelli plate or on my non-stick craft mat.

So remember to use every glob and drip! It will only lead to more great backgrounds!

Enjoy!

Here is the second part of my monoprinting videos. The focus in this second half is layering my prints with more than one stencil as well as adding ink sprays and other various inking and painting techniques. Enjoy!

Gelli Plate Printing

Here is my latest video sharing many prints I created using the Gelli Arts printing plate. Please note that this is addictive! I decided to put the prints on a ring binder for good keeping and viewing. I can't wait to create with these prints. I will have a part 2 video soon which will include layering and using other mediums after creating the prints.

Mixed Media Gift Tag

This is a gift tag I made for my niece's graduation from art college. She majored in photography. I wanted to make it personal so I included charms that represented travel and of course, the camera. There is an envelope attached to the back to hold money, a check or small gift card. Products used are various Ranger inks, Crafter's Workshop stencils, Sharpie paint pen,clear stamps by I cannot remember, fiber and charm embellishments, and the Gelli printing plate which is awesome!
