I got to play with a Gelli Plate today :)
I have to say that I hadn't been tempted by one in the slightest...until this week! I signed up for the
'21 Secrets Art Journaling Workshop' a while ago and recently watched
Roben-Marie Smith using a Gelli Plate in her journal....and LoVeD it!
Sue and I had planned a playday today (we've not had one for aaaaaaaaages!) and Sue suggested we play with her Gelli Plate :) I now need to purchase my own lol
We spent a couple of hours making papers and printing pages in our journals, stopped for lunch then did some creating with our papers.
[I also got to play with some of Sue's stamps and stencils :)]
I love the textures you can create with the gelli plate. All I added to this envelope was the flower, the tiny stamped circles and three green paint circles (using the pritt stick lid) and the words 'native graciousness'.
Glassine envelopes are FaB to work with in conjunction with the Gelli Plate :)
Finally, this envelope came about because Sue found an ant stamp which was just too fun not to use!!
Such a fun day:) And it's amazing how we came up with the same but different stuff:)
ReplyDeleteWe will have to do it again.....in the summer!
Great gelli prints, so addictive aren't they?

ReplyDeleteThanks for the idea of the glassine envelope - hadn't thought of that.
