Some
techniques I’m using for the Christmas cards:
Paper towel:
brayer paint on the
plate and roll with paper towel over it, the print on the towel will transfer
to the plate (added bonus: you'll have nicely colored paper towels to use in aanother project)
Cling film:
after applying paint to the plate place a piece of cling
film over it and wrinkle it. You can use the same piece of film again and then
paint will transfer from the film to your print, this creates a marble effect.
I glued
small doilies on to a piece of paper and used this to create texture:
Then I took some lego of my son and created these prints.
He wasn’t to amused when
he saw the paint on his bricks, but after I let him play with it on the gelli
plate it was ok J
Nice prints, thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteno problem, we're here to inspire each other.
DeleteLovely prints and great ideas for using what we have around the home. I wouldn't have thought of using Lego!
ReplyDeleteSince I have my gelli plate I'm always looking at items whether I can use them for printing
DeleteGood thing he was okay with you using it on the Gelli because that look is fabulous! Thanks for sharing with the party!
ReplyDeleteThanks, I also have in mind to try out what effect tires from toycars give, better ask first this time :-)
DeleteYou had me at "lego". That is awesome. I like the 3D effect it gives.
