Easy Gelatos Technique For Adding Color And Texture

[@laurengilliland8355]

Finally, someones techniques that make me love gelatoes. 👍💕😊

[@pjlewisful]

You obviously have a good knowledge of COMPOSITION. Sadly many crafters haven't studied composition, so sharing more of your knowledge of it in your lovely videos would, I think, serve your followers well.

[@KimDellow]

Thanks for the suggestion. I have done a video on my fav composition and design tricks for my patrons.

[@dawnhirsh6263]

I love it. I have to watch it again because I didn't understand it so well the first time.

[@lukelloyd4146]

I love the colours😍

[@emilydstam]

I love your videos so much!

[@KimDellow]

Thank you so much Emily! 💚

[@MsYiara]

Love the technique. Thanks for sharing

[@KimDellow]

I'm glad you enjoyed it!

[@1tinac]

Fun. Great tips. Thanks for sharing.

[@KimDellow]

Thank you! I am glad you found it useful!

[@catherinepeddel3255]

What a great idea. Thank you.

[@KimDellow]

Thank you Catherine 😘

[@ruthsreusables2442]

They give some beautiful colours and I love a bit of resist. I think I may have found a medium that my 4 year old could happily play with, get messy and love the results! Xx

[@KimDellow]

They are great for adding lots of lovely messy colour 🎨😍🤣 and then you can turn them all into cards!

[@sheryllamoureux1068]

Darn it Kim I was supposed to be shopping for a sofa bed for my mom but just a little break to watch your video. But matt medium as a resist for gelatos, how fun! I guess the sofa bed can wait for an hour or two.

[@KimDellow]

😂 Sorry! You can always do the sofa bed shopping as you wait for the medium to dry 😂😂

[@jade0626]

Beautiful as always. I was using my Gelatos a couple of weeks ago. I hadn't used them in awhile before that. I'm going to break them out again and try your techniques. You are such an inspiration. TFS Kim 😊 Enjoy the rest of your week and weekend. 💞

[@KimDellow]

Ahh thank you Judy. Have lots of fun playing and you have a lovely rest of you week too!

[@crozlowcrafts]

I only use my matte gel medium as a collaging adhesive!!!! Can’t wait to try it through a stencil, as a seal & resist too!!!! Thank you!

[@KimDellow]

😍 Glad that I could help and have lots of fun playing!

[@robi92100]

So beautiful!!

[@KimDellow]

Thank you! Glad you think so!

[@lindseywarren44]

Ok, so this vid just came up on my KZbin feed. A coincidence because I've just been gifted a set of lovely gelatos! You've totally inspired me, and I just subscribed 😊 Thank you so much! Blessings

[@KimDellow]

Perfect! I hope you have lots of fun playing with them and thank you so much for subscribing. I have a few more gelato videos if you have a look at my channel. I think I might even have a playlist of gelatos videos and other water reactive crayons if it helps!

[@allthumbs3792]

Great tutorial on Gelatos. I’ve done little with the few I have but this is good inspiration. Love the cluster of stamps as the first step.

[@KimDellow]

Thank you! I hope you have fun with your Gelatos!

[@maggiehughes4283]

I'm in awe ! Thank you for sharing.

[@dawnesmith-sliming7004]

Haven’t used my gelatos in ages and never with matte medium. I’ll have to head to the studio to play. TFS.

[@KimDellow]

Hope you had fun playing Dawne!

[@elaineforan4751]

I am very busy this week but you have given me a new burst of inspiration so I can't wait to go have a play with my watercolour crayons. Thank you so much for sharing your inspiration and beautiful attitude! Tfs

[@KimDellow]

That's great Lori! Thanks for watching and have loads of fun trying it out!

[@verafilindeng1995]

Gorgeous page, Kim, I love it! And a great technique. I only have fake gelatos, but they work really well. When my hands get better, I´m definitely try this out. You`re such an inspiration! Tfs, Fia xx

[@KimDellow]

Ooo I'm sure fake Gelatos will work well. What are your fake Gelatos if I can ask? 💚💜

[@verafilindeng1995]

Kim Dellow I have some Crayon sticks by a company called Centrum. They're very vibrant and work like Gelatos (I've got 2 real ones, so I can compare, lol). Then I've also got something called silky pastels by some weird company. They're a bit harder than Gelatos and not so vibrant, but they are okish. I hope that helps 😊

[@KimDellow]

Ooo thanks Fia. I thought I might know Centrum but turns out I was thinking of a different company! 😂 I shall keep my eye out for these!

[@gloriaburns2854]

Great vidio tfs I have to do a page leaving white spaces

[@KimDellow]

Oh yes! White space is a great look! Hope you enjoy playing!

[@perfectlyimperfectcrafts3615]

Love this page . Thank you for showing your techniques. Just got some gelatos. Can't wait to try this . KAT

[@KimDellow]

[@bettyhall9777]

Lovely spread , awesome colors and love those stamps. Tfs, hope you have a blessed day 😊

[@bettyhall9777]

Forgot to mention thank you for putting the US in the supply list to where to get the products.

[@KimDellow]

My pleasure! I am hooked on those stamps myself 😂And glad I can help with the supplies too 💚

[@fiannev8457]

Don't have gelatos (yet). And this video makes me regret that even more. Really Nice!

[@KimDellow]

You can always try it out with your other watercoloring mediums, whilst you wait to get some Gelatos 🤣🎨

[@frkbogstad]

So cool :D

[@KimDellow]

Thank you!

[@annefaint6127]

This was really, I haven’t played with my gelato’s for ages, you have reminded me I have them lol,,,😁😁

[@KimDellow]

😂 glad I could help Anne! Have fun playing with them again!

[@KathleenRenninger]

Great effect with the matte medium. New subbie!

[@KimDellow]

Big welcome Kathleen! I am glad you liked it and thanks for subscribing!

[@MyLittleJournal]

I’m totally going to try this. Thank you so much Kim for sharing I’m a huge fan 💕 I just found your channel a few days ago and I’ve been binge watching your videos.

[@KimDellow]

Ooo thank you! I am glad you have been enjoying the videos and thank you for watching! I notice you have a YT channel too! I will pop over and take a look 😍💚

[@angelshannona]

Hi. Lovely video. Just started working with gelatos. Did you prime your mixed media page with gesso first? TIA!

[@KimDellow]

I don't think I did. It has been a while since I made this project so I don't remember but gesso isn't listed in the description and I am not a big user of gesso so I am guessing I didn't. But if I had I would have mentioned it in the video I am sure.

[@katerinamylona8068]

Beautiful and useful!!! Thank you for sharing!!! I really like watching your videos!!! :) xxx

[@KimDellow]

Thank you Katerina, I'm glad you have been enjoying them and thanks for watching and letting me know too!

[@hurricanekitty6736]

Could I use mod podge instead in place of matte medium?

[@KimDellow]

Mmm, I don't know! Give it a go and see how it works for you. I am guessing if the mod podge is water resistant when dry then it should work. Let me know how you get on!

[@laurathurston4757]

Do you know when the winners of the art hop will be announced.. and where?

[@KimDellow]

Hiya Laura, so I believe the winners will be announced May 4th 2018 on deedeecatron.blogspot.co.uk/ & www.inkyfairydesigns.com

[@dawnhirsh6263]

what if you don't want it to bleed underneath the stencil?

[@Marylou7204]

Use a thicker medium - golden soft gel matte medium is thicker and they also have a thick gel medium

[@KimDellow]

MissKitty7204 is quite right, you can use a gel medium which is a thicker medium. Personally if I was going to do that I would swap onto gloss, so like a Golden Regular Gel (gloss), or one of the thicker ones, because you wont get as clear a finish with the Golden Gel (matte). They dry quite cloudy, Golden Matte medium dries clearer because it is so much thinner than the gel revision. So if you are happy with a shiny finish in parts of the your project use one of the gloss Gels. If you want a matte finish use Matte Medium and just add it carefully and don't worry about bleed because for something like this it just added texture.
