Sin City Stamps and Gelli Plate Printing

Hello fellow crafters, Peggy here to share my Gelli Printing fun.

This month we are partnering with Gelli Arts and I must tell you it is Very addicting!

Supplies used today are:

Gelli Arts Gelli Plate

Sin City Stamps Stencil

Sin City Stamps laser die cut

Acrylic Paint 

Brayer

Vellum Paper

Cardstock

Punch for trim

Enamel Accents

Embellishments 

I started out with a clean gelli plate and I randomly placed acrylic  paint sparingly. Using my brayer I spread the paint evenly. 

This picture below shows using only white paint. 

After laying down color I placed my stencil on top of the paint and added a second layer of paint. Since the first layer on my gelli plate was wet and sticky the stencil stayed in place. I used my brayer to spread secondary colors on top.

Here is my gelli plate ready for printing.

I placed a sheet of vellum on top of my gelli plate

And gravity pulled my sheet toward my gelli plate. Because the vellum is semi transparent you can see which spots needed a gental touch to adhere to the vellum paper.

As you can see this process is very addicting.

Here is one of my favorite  prints cut out and ready for mounting. I desided to make a few cards.

Below I used a flower cut out from Sin City Stamps to place over my print.

Here is my finished product. I layered yellow cardstock on black cardstock. Next I used a MS punch on black cardstock for the bottom. I also used ribbon and lace embellishments and finished it off with enamel accents.

Below is a print with the background paint made into a card using the same process.

So much fun! I had a great time making prints. Next time I think I'll include the kids!

I hope you have enjoyed my tutorial and check out Sin City Stamps for your stamping, chipboard , stencil needs and more!

I would also like to thank Gelli Arts for their fabulous  Gelli plate!

Warmly,  

Peggy Oliver
