Playing with Gelli Arts

Thank you so much for stopping by my blog

to check out my creation using products from

both of these AH~MAZING manufacturers.

Now, I have a bit of a disclaimer. Somehow my DT box got lost in its travels, so I had to punt! I'm sooo HAPPY I owned a
8" Round Gelli Printing Plate to work with.

As my paint color selection was WIDE OPEN, I decided to create something for my dining room. Which was SOOOO EXCITING! You see I am living in a house with bare walls. YES bare walls. We just moved into our home in October.

Next, was to chose the ArtFoamies I wanted to play with!

I grabbed a few, trying to have each one very DIFFERENT from the other.

Woman Power

Leaf Geo

Lastly, what would I print on....
so I went on hunt and chose
a couple of Vintage Music Sheets
pages from a vintage McCalls magazine
a piece of white canvas
even a vintage paper bag

(I only ended up using the fabric,
can't wait to see what I do with the papers)

Then, I let the creative process begin!!
Now, I do have to say I am VERY NEW at the whole monoprinting process. So, this collaboration was a GREAT way
for me to try different things.

Here are a few photos of my final creation,
which now hangs in my dining area.

I’m sharing a project I made with EXOTIC stamp by Block Wallah.

I have to say.....I HAD SOO MUCH FUN

playing with my Block Wallah stamp!

I began by pulling out some sheets of vintage paper...

Here is a little video of my stamp exploration....

Once I had my "stamped papers" created....

I pulled out a few more of my faves to use....
a bit of paper mesh....
(I brush on a bit of Multi Medium to hold it together.)

and a piece of handmade paper
that I cut to size.

Here is my completed card
