I'm so inspired after watching you work with distress oxide on your gelli plate! Thank you!😊

Hi Sharon! I am happy to hear my video inspired you! Thanks for sharing that with me. Oxides and Distress Inks are so enjoyable on a gel plate once you understand how they work. Have fun! 💗

Very nice prints. I’m loving the use of Distress Oxide Inks on the plate. I’m going to try that.

[@Thereses-Crafty-Cabana]

I hope you have fun with the distress inks! I always have to remember that they don’t dry and you can’t use them to pull other paint off the plate. Once you figure out how they work on the Gelli plate it’s so much fun! 💕

These were great techniques that I will be trying! Thank you for sharing these. Gel plate prints are such fun and often surprising ⭐❤😊

[@Thereses-Crafty-Cabana]

Thank you. I agree, I love the surprise of a gel print reveal. I hope you enjoy the process as much as I did. 🤗

One question, please? Is this process sped up in any way or is the time real time from adding ink to pulling the prints? Thank you for these great ideas. I have reinters as well and you have given me some great ideas to try.

[@Thereses-Crafty-Cabana]

I did speed up the process of adding color and using the brayer on the plate, but me adding the paper and pulling the print is real time. With this technique you do not need to wait for it to dry to the paper like you would if you were using acrylic paint. I hope that makes sense. I hope you have fun with this process!

@@Thereses-Crafty-Cabana thank you. Yes it makes perfect sense.
