Having Fun With Gelli Plates

Image
By
I know that the Design Team has posted there projects using the Gelli Plates , but I just had to post my project I did the other day when I was "playing" with my Gelli Plates ! I love this new product ! I could spend the whole day in my studio playing with this !

You can get your Gelli Plates HERE ! You will not be disappointed !
I wanted to use mine to create some tags, so I got out some stamps, dies that I had cut out , and my Brushsticks ( fabulous tool )  ! After I applied various paints I used my stamps , dies & made some designs with the Brushsticks. Laying the tags down on my Gelli Plate and then lifting up each tag and seeing your new design  is half the fun !!!

These are just some of the tags I did, and they are ready to go now to add more layers and embellishments !!
 For my birdcage tag I used a die from Altered Pages , I love how it has a worn look , I added the text "DREAM" using clear embossing powder,and an ink pad using a background stamp of dots and an ever so tiny bird stamp. The last detail was some fabric rose ribbon I sprayed with a mist to go with the tag !

Hope you will also have fun creating some tags with your Gelli Plates !! Have a fabulous day !

 Handy Tip for Artists, Recyclers and Neat Freaks! I have a follow-up to the Citra-Sol method for creating fabulous background pages and collages.   I bought a big bag of navel oranges and realized I had the ingredients to make my own solvent!   Simply take a clean glass jar, peel the rind from the oranges and place all the rind/peels, without the pulp (tangerines, oranges, navels) into the jar.   Pour enough vinegar over the peels to cover them.    Allow the jar to sit for a week or two and VOILA!     You have made your own solvent for literally pennies.    You will notice the liquid getting a bit thicker than the plain vinegar and it does not smell bad!!! I now have a  HUGE jar on the window sill!       Be careful and only use this after testing on a safe spot.
