You’ll be amazed at what they sent me and how the gel plates performed with my favourite gelli printing techniques. In this video, I put the Gelelf gel plates to the test and provide an honest review.
Join me as I unbox the Gelelf gel plates, share my first impressions, and dive into various gelli printing techniques to see how they hold up. If you've been wondering if affordable gel plates are worth it, this review is for you! Happy Creating!

Gelelf gel plates can be found the cheapest on Temu, more info in the description.

@KingdomDV Месяц назад

@@FroyleArt thanks!

I'm a little gelli of all the plates you received - nobody deserves them more! Thanks for showing us the comparison !

GelElf was very generous to you. All your viewers will enjoy what they sent!

@MaggieHolychild Месяц назад

Really happy to see the review. GelElf was all I could afford and I had nothing to compare it with. Yes they stay a bit sticky but it does not affect the prints. I love mine. Let GelElf know that I immediately went to purchase the acrylic boards - I really need those.

@FroyleArt Месяц назад

Love the acrylic boards!! Thanks for letting me know! 😍 cheers

@bobbibauer-qr9sk Месяц назад

That was quite an impressive haul - Christmas in July! Thank you for the terrific review. I have been reluctant to try GelElf, but I will now.

@FroyleArt Месяц назад

I think they work just fine! 😍 cheers

This was so much fun to watch you unbox and try out the new products. I think I’ll give them a try. Love the large round!

@FroyleArt Месяц назад

I love the round one! 😍 Temu is the cheapest place to buy them 👍🏼

@jdmosaics Месяц назад

@@FroyleArtI got one from them but no instructions can you please put a picture of the instruction info somewhere? Also the Barren they sent you I didn’t buy cause it really is too textured and weird. But the speedball barren is good. Thanks for running through their plates Froyle. I like the Geli Art plate 12x 14 and have used it for 8 yrs- still good. ❤

@Nanakinsz Месяц назад

Oh, wow! So many BEAUTIFUL and CLEAN Gel Plates! How thick is the gel part on them, we need actual measurements to feel the full envy and all, you know! :) Also, what did they smell like?! This was an incredible collection! And you were ADORBS to watch while you opened them! The new stencil looked like it was MADE for that circle, by the way.❤ ❤ ❤ I just erased an entire paragraph when I discovered the price on their web site was astronomical, but their Amazon prices are a few bucks less expensive than Gel Press. :) Their web site prices were QUITE the sticker shock. So to everyone else, check their Amazon prices before you give up on them. Thanks for this, Miss Froyle.

@FroyleArt Месяц назад

Thanks for joining me! 😘 cheers

@Katmcb-r5u Месяц назад

Thank you for the price comparison. Always looking for a bargain 😢 ❤❤❤

@MaggieHolychild Месяц назад

No smell at all - I have been using them for a few months.

@lindsaytrill4039 Месяц назад

How fabulous, and the company was so generous. I really liked the 2 round prints you did. The contrast of colors with those stencils were framable as is

@FroyleArt Месяц назад

@connieebinger6343 17 дней назад

Thank you for all for the great demonstration on the jelly plates. I’ve been curious about whether that’s expensive ones would work out well. Thank you!

@sarahhutchison8190 Месяц назад

Thanks for doing this review. I’ve always wondered what these plates are like. They are certainly a cheaper option if you have to pay freight as well. Love that circle shape❤😀

@FroyleArt Месяц назад

Me too! 😘 cheers

@allthumbs3792 Месяц назад

Wow, great gifts from GelElf and product review. I noticed brand new the GelElf plates did not 'lace' the first layer of paint as the other brand gel plates do. Your first magenta print was perfect! Love or hate that feature, it's completely absent with the GelElf brand. Thank you Froyle and THANK YOU GelElf!

@FroyleArt Месяц назад

Thank you! 😘

@marywagner9927 Месяц назад

Whoa! How lucky you are! What a package. Love that huge one, especially for fabric. But I do wish they came in clamshells

@FroyleArt Месяц назад

@inekek4rommenhoek201 Месяц назад

Thanks a lot for your wise lessons on the gelplates. I'm using two Gel Elf plates since 2 weeks now. Doing a lot of try (and error). One of my experements was marmering one side and then the odder side with another colour marmering. Then knit a perfect square and you get an origami paper, double coloured. I go for more adventures with my Gel Elf plates. 🙃

@FroyleArt Месяц назад

So much fun! Happy creating, cheers

@Katmcb-r5u Месяц назад

Will try Gelelf❤. Thank you for sharing your new toys. Also love the round one. I’m going to try and make a circle from paper and apply to gel plate and make my own sizes ❤❤

@FroyleArt Месяц назад

Great idea! 👍🏼 Happy creating, cheers

@BunnyLang Месяц назад

I'm thinking the tackiness might hold the paint better as it seems when you pull the print off the plate, it comes off very clean. I do like the round prints you made with your stencil. Thanks for the review, very informative. :)

@FroyleArt Месяц назад

Thank you! 😊

@ChiquitasCrochet Месяц назад

Wow I love the circle one too!! And the multi layer one is awesome!!! Will try it!! Thank you!!!

@MixedMediaArtByTrina 21 день назад

I’ve had mine for about six months and it is still really clean. I use mine almost daily and abuse it with charcoal transfers, pastels, markers, you name it. Only takes a spritz of water for it to come clean. Love it. Thanks for the review! 😍

@judilynn9569 Месяц назад

@elizabethjehnzen Месяц назад

I have two different brands of gelplates. There is a definite difference of stickiness between them. I've found that the less sticky one gets stickier as I print with it, and the one that starts out sticky needs less warm up time.

@FroyleArt Месяц назад

So interesting! 😍 cheers

@yelena86 Месяц назад

Gelelf seems a lot thicker to me, looks double the thickness from when you compared to the other plate. Gelelf looks so thick and luscious, I’d want to roll around in it too 😂

@FroyleArt Месяц назад

Haha! 😂 so much fun!! Cheers

@createart2iowa Месяц назад

You know how they’re really sticky, i find that is really useful for drying prints or watercolours that have buckled a bit during painting. Just stick the sheet face up onto the gelelf and leave it to dry perfectly flat 😊

@FroyleArt Месяц назад

Thanks! 😍

@Maria-k0 Месяц назад

Enjoyed your review of the Gelelf plates, thank you for sharing on the video. Are they shipped from New Zealand? 😊

@FroyleArt Месяц назад

No but I have seen them in Temu very cheap & wanted to give them a try 👍🏼 cheers

@hazelpurls Месяц назад

Interesting. I've not come across Gelelf before (I'm in the UK). I've only used one plate that wasn't gelli arts/gel plate before (not Gelelf either) and that was overly sticky. In the end I couldn't get it to release paint at all (despite careful cleaning, conditioning, different paints and papers, etc) and ended up throwing it away! (I'm fine with the gel plate/gelli arts ones). It had also discoloured in sunlight (not a problem in itself, but odd). I'd be interested to see how these hold up to use.

@FroyleArt Месяц назад

Yes me too! 👍🏼 cheers

@cIvy726 Месяц назад

I would love it if you could review Gel Press plates. They are cheaper than both Gelli Arts and Gelelf here in Canada. My last plate (>10 years ago) was Gelli Arts, as I think that was all there was, and I can't compare as it was too long ago. I am sure I will want a large plate at some point, and hope that Gel Press will suffice because the price difference is major!

@cIvy726 Месяц назад

LOVE the round plate here!

@FroyleArt Месяц назад

The Gelelf plates are cheap on Temu! 👍🏼 cheers

@chrishayman1747 5 дней назад

I bought a 16x20 Gelelf from Temu. Yes very sticky. Also I’m having heaps of trouble with the paint beading. I’ve done 25 prints but it’s still happening

@FroyleArt 5 дней назад

Oh no! I haven’t had that trouble, try giving it a clean with baby oil 👍🏼

@julieparker1114 Месяц назад

Oh wow, I'm absolutely gobsmacked. It's unusual for me to talk like that, but, wwwooowww. Now you can do your gel printing. And move on to another plate while it's drying. This is so exciting! I can hardly contain myself. Bubble wrap, yay, more mark making. Lol, pick the bits out of the stencil first! 🤣 what a beautiful flower stencil that is! But yes, it looks very flimsy. So far, I have avoided temu, lol.

@FroyleArt Месяц назад

THanks for the review, it was very beneficial. Although I can't see that they are much cheaper after googling them (I'm in Australia), so some of that might be our horrendous $ at the moment. But even in US dollars there doesn't seem a lot of difference in the prices really.
