gellistickexperimentsbooklet

If I would lay that word at Scrabble I surely win :-)

I made this cute little book using the crossed-structure binding I found in the book "Making handmade books" from Alisa Golden. The cover is made out of a piece of those large sheets of paper I have laying on my desk to clean of stencils, stamps,...



When I read the instructions, I found them complicated, but while making the book it all became clear. The book has over 100 bindings, so I have a few more books to go if I want to give them all a try :-)
I will use this booklet to keep track of all my experiments, like the ones I did with the gel sticks.

    1. thx, I find it great to browse through when I need some inspiration or want to see how something will look like, I also have samples of all my spray inks for example.

  2. This is a smart idea. When I look back at some of my Gelli prints, I wonder how I got a certain effect. Having a record like this would be very helpful. I hope you'll keep sharing your experiments!
