I don't own a gelli plate, and I still have to try the homemade gelli plate from Frugal Crafter. I don't have any Dylusions paint either (though I LURVE all the Dylusions stuff), but I've tried gelli printing on the smooth side of my self-healing craft mat with varying results. Depends on how much paint and how quickly it dries, etc. Love the box!
I just got my Dylusions paints the other day. I had assumed that since they dry so quickly on paper, that I wouldn't be able to use the on my Gelli Plate. Thanks to you, I now know I can! I love the bright colors so it's going to be fun to gellify them.
Wow this video is fantastic -- I love Dylusions paints -- they are so smooth and dry quickly. I have never looked at anything about gelli printing but I am now a fan. A really great video that shows me how easy it is to use a gelli plate. thank you so much -- I am sold on your videos.
You make everything so much fun! And unlike other crafter artists, I enjoy listening to you lol, you are so encouraging and sunny! My Dylusions are on their way (USPS) and I found 3 gelatos on sale lol. With all that you have taught me, I have NO FEARS that my play will be anything less than beautiful!
Carolyn I really love 💗 this, you’re so awesome and talented and clever.....I really love 💕 you’re no nonsense approach....just the style I really like. Thank you so much xx Mags
Carolyn .... You crack me up...I love what you are doing all the time , with the different mediums and gadgets, but more than anything you are very entertaining....lol thanks for not only all the helpful and knowledgeable videos, but your awesome sense of humor !!! It's apparent you LOVE what you do !!! Robin Bird In The Hand Primitives
I would love to see what you do with the journal pages. I am new to this and do-not understand the purpose of the journal. Now with that said I use a notebook to apply my paint colors ...gels, inference, metallic etc so that I can go back to reference what I “may” be looking for. The journals that I see people working on are pictures themselves. Sure am glad I found your site. Ordered my first geli pad
Art journaling can be anything you want it to be Deborah- no rights or wrongs. I have a bunch of art journaling videos, some with gel printing some without to give you an idea of how I art journal. You can see them in the playlist at ru-vid.com/group/PLWGd0Z92Mk3MWRibdHaEvgNOEVMpROAH-
Great video Carolyn. I was wondering if the Dylusions paints would dry too fast for the gelli plate but it looks like you made it work. I love seeing you use the round plate. What fun, I really need to take mine out and play.
This would be a cute idea to try on a light colored tissue box and make it the colors of your bathroom/bedroom. What brayers do you use/recommend to go with the many sizes of gelli plates you have?
Janet Baker any soft rubber brayer works with the plate and any size you are comfortable with...if you only bought one I would guess the 4" or medium one. Hope this helps!
Love this video. Would like to see more dylusions with the gelli plate, especially on praper. Also can you use sprays or liquid acrylic Ink with the gelli plate?
usgribbles I did a little with acrylic inks but they were just so wet it didn't give me the look and coverage I wanted. As for sprays- use those at your own risk. Some work great and others stain up the plate. It's a trial and error type of thing. Hope this helps!
Such a pretty box! I love those paints too! I have just a few of them but would love to get more colors! I just played with the gelli plate for the 1st time the other night and had a blast with it.. I just uploaded a video of what I had done.. I would love it if you would please go and watch it and give it a thumbs up for me. I am knew at making videos so I need all the support I can get! I have been on youtube for years supporting others and just now getting started with my own channel. I have been more on FB and taking photos so videoing is new for me and a challenge but I promised myself that I would do it this year! The next time I play with my gelli plate I will have to get my Dylusions out and give them a try. Have a blessed day :)
