I love the element of surprise with Gelli prints. You got some great botanical prints. I agree. It’s hard to stop once you get going on them. Thanks for the video. 🙌🏻
That’s what I like about the gelliplate too. And it is indeed very addictive. I haven’t played with mine for a while because I was busy with other craft projects.
Annette, wow, these prints are beautiful. I have never heard of Gelli prints.....how lovely and endless possibilities. Thanks for introducing me to a new craft technique!
I love playing with the Gelli plates. Thank you Annette, I’m going to pull them out again and be creative! Using the metallic paints gives them such a dramatic effect. I must look for the corner spacer or order it from your link, I love it!
I love gelli printing and it’s so so addicting! Now you’ve got me wanting to do some prints and I love the idea of using the flower and fern die cuts for the designs and those scrolls too. A while back I did some prints using alcohol ink and the lift reinker with stencils and that’s pretty cool because they’re transparent since no paint is used. I love the gelli plate and thanks for these cool ideas of using the ECD die cuts and stencils. Love your prints!
First time using a gelli plate a few months ago and you reminded me to get back to it. So much fun especially since I have so many Elizabeth Craft dies to use. Thanks for the great idea. Your prints are great! I got started when a friend introduced me to Elizabeth St. Hilaire, an artist who uses gelli prints for paper collage. I hope you'll check her out on RU-vid. She's also a fantastic artist and I predict you will love her prints.
Thanks so much Jane. I really think it's the light to dark thing that really helps make the prints most successful. I used to just slap paint down and go, but now I know how the layers work best. I hope you DO give it another go. Enjoy!
Aloha New Sub, just discovered gelli plate a few months ago and it has become one of my favorite things. I experiment with all the things geli print related. TFS 🤙❤
Hi and welcome! So great to have you here. I could gelli print all day every day if life didn't get in the way. It's so much fun. I find myself looking at things around the house and out in nature differently now, like "what kind of a print would this make?" Thanks for checking out this video.
Okay, I have got to know where you got your frame that helps position your prints for a perfect border. It is wonderful and so helpful when doing multi layer prints! It must be more shallow than the gelli plate (at least the side closest to the plate). I loved this video! Thanks for your help! 😊
You're exactly right, Beth. It's shallow at that point. I've linked to this frame thingy in the description of this video. You can either get one directly from them using my link, or perhaps you can find it in your local scrapbook store. Thanks for watching! So happy you enjoyed it!
@@AnnetteGreen Thank you. Missed it somehow when I checked your links. Slightly scared off by the price, so I think I might try to DIY it. I have three gelli plates now, so looking forward to playing with them after I move. Thanks again. It was a great video! 😊
Yes, the link I supplied includes another gelli plate. I'm not sure if the frame is sold separately. Sounds like that's all you need since you have several plates already. @@bethbenson1931
Thanks Bettie. I would probably use some of the prints I wasn't as fond of for the inside, and add a white layer over it, just a bit smaller. That way, you have the same "feel" of the art, but mostly just a touch. Leaving more room for your message.
Thanks so much! If you go up into the description under this video, I've provided all the links of the dies I used. They are from Elizabeth Craft Designs. If you use my links, you get 10% off your entire order!
