If brayer your lacy stencil directly with the acrylic paint, and then lay the brayered side on your gel plate, then lift the stencil, let it dry, do another layer, you will get a super detailed print. Thanks for sharing your fun video. 😃

You can always flip the plate over if one side is damaged. Also you can cut your plate down to different shapes and sizes of both sides are damaged. They are so easy to cut in any shape or size you want with a straight edge and blade. Just a recommendation. :)

Great video. I know I can see the results at the end, but during the video, would it be possible to hold the prints steady, once pulled?

Love your prints! Ok, so first, so much thanks to you and Cheryl for sponsoring our stamp wars tonight!! Y'all were so incredibly generous! Do y'all do a military discount? I saw someone ask this when Cheryl mentioned the teachers discount, but didn't see the response. I plan on binging your channel some! Could you tell me again the name of the paper you prefer? It wasn't super thin like copy paper, or at least it didn't look like it, but not as thick as cardstock. Also, tell me again please the name of the green paint. I am obsessed with purple, but I LOVE that shade of green. Especially since it goes so well with purple lol

Thanks for the tutorial. It looks like you leave your gel plat in the bottom of its container. What are the advantages over having it on a work surface? It looks I teresting.

It seems as though the alcohol ink would be to dry to lift so this is helpful. I would not have thought of it.

Yes! Letting dry is the key. 😊

@theresaz2023 Жыл бұрын

Dumb question but can’t you turn your gel plate over?

@rachelbunt2188 Жыл бұрын

So, rubbing alcohol will not hurt the Gelli pad?

@TheCreativeLifeStudios Жыл бұрын

I can only speak for commercially made gel plates (I don’t know about homemade ones 😊) but NOPE! Running Alcohol won’t damage your plate.

Do you let the inks dry?

@TheCreativeLifeStudios Жыл бұрын

Hey there! Yes..you want the alcohol ink to dry or else it will just color your acrylic paint. 😊

What paper are u using ❤

@TheCreativeLifeStudios Жыл бұрын

My favorite playtime paper is 28lb Digital Copy paper. Office Depot has a great version. However, Walmart brand is awful. Steer clear of that one!

You could simply turn your gel plate (instead of buying a new one), because it has two sides ;)

oh absolutely! I don't care how ugly it is as long as I can create with it! LOL

Did the alcohol ink stain your gel press plate?
