The French word ‘nacre’ means mother of pearl

[@marymckinstry5916]

Nacre (the paint color you showed at start of video) is the name for the iridescent color on the inside of white shells.

[@annevanderlaan6441]

Your hands are so beautiful!

[@dianecourtney2724]

Boy are they ever ✌🏼

[@parisnchristlove]

Omg, these are beautiful! I’m a new subscriber - where’ve you been all my life, girl? How have I missed you? Well, I think I feel. Robyn McClendon KZbin marathon coming on! Thank you for sharing

[@lynnsmith2444]

As a former faux finish painter, I love this!!! You’re amazing Robyn!

[@nancykahn4125]

Yay yay...it's Saturday 😎

Glad I accidentally clicked, can't wait for future videos.🌞🌷🦋🧸❤️

[@elizabethradford4909]

Hello from UK! Would love to get the Stainz but shipping from US too expensive. But going to play with the products I have. Your videos are inspirational. Thank you.

[@margaretcrosby3490]

This framing method is genius! Thanks, Robyn!

[@marnibowen7286]

I love how happy you seem. It makes me want to go try this right now.

[@sueevans4110]

I enjoy watching your classes over and over going back years so enjoyable.

[@cherylalikhani5957]

Glad I accidentally clicked, can't wait for future videos.🌞🌷🦋🧸❤️ I love your stencils.

[@sueevans4110]

Thank you for your Saturday slot on you tube. You have helped me so much during this dreadful time we are all going through.

[@rajaal-taqi8122]

I was so happy to find you in 2014, I knew you were a genius then and now. I really enjoy that you love what you do well...and truly love the game of art and life. May your talents flourish.

[@taylorharlem4932]

i realize it is quite off topic but do anyone know a good place to watch new series online ?

[@breckenenrique8952]

@Taylor Harlem flixportal xD

[@taylorharlem4932]

@Brecken Enrique Thanks, I went there and it seems like they got a lot of movies there =) I really appreciate it !

[@breckenenrique8952]

@Taylor Harlem No problem xD

[@debbiegarland7124]

Love your taste

[@ellenmasters9178]

Thanks for sharing your great methods! Love watching your process.😘

[@viviendockerty5822]

Nacre means Mother of Pearl.

[@marshaegan4316]

I’m doing this now I watched this awhile back and using in my art

[@MsYiara]

Excellent video Robyn. Thank you so much for sharing 🙃

[@dttttt]

Oh my. I love what that spray does! I have been obsessed with using the gelli plate to make the old walls I've seen while traveling. Salmon & ochre Moroccan, Jaipur pink, "San Miguel colors." Ironically if that happened to the walls in my house, I'd be very upset. LOL. But it's gorgeous on paper, and on buildings where it's supposed to be like that.

[@RobynMcClendon]

hahahaha so true old walls on buildings! Ahhhhhh San Miguel one of my fav towns so many wonderful color palette inspos!

[@martymace9139]

Thanks so much for sharing.

[@suzieq23ify]

This video is so so interesting. I learned a lot. Thank you

[@shirleymccullough2515]

What fun and the framing … ok that does it !! Thank you Robyn !!

[@kathybell8037]

Love this.....thank you for the framing trick ! !

[@gawieber]

Absolutely fabulous tutorial! Looking forward to using my stencils by you on the gel plate too. Thank you!

[@sharongrace3626]

I recently commented that I struggle with making my prints look like finished art and not just a background so this is really helpful for me. Thank you Robyn!

[@RobynMcClendon]

You are so very welcome Sharon :)

[@brendacollinsdeeks7268]

Robyn I would love to get your scribble stencils but shipping to Canada is incredibly expensive …triple the price of the item… even though the stencils are so thin and light! 🥺 I still enjoy your videos though. Thanks so much for sharing your talent.

[@angeladingwall5680]

Brilliant work as ever x

[@elizabethhanks8301]

Thanks for sharing Patti Pockets. Mine just arrived and I can't wait try on the Gelli Plate. Love the scripting, E

[@wwcreations1]

For mat framing, Use a larger one and then cut it at top left and bottom right, so that you can adjust the size to what ever you need. I use a neutral grey one so that it can help with lights and darks.

[@kyleoliver9538]

Love the results you're getting combining these stains, oh my! I just ordered some of Patty's Stainz for myself. Thank you for sharing what you are learning with the rest of us. Gorgeous pages as always!

[@megbreiter6314]

LOVE, Love, love this!!!

[@debbie115]

Another amazing tutorial! TFS 🤎

[@margaritakimak65]

Never thought to use a matt board frame to find a focal point. Good idea

[@dinieherbert]

Thank you Robyn, I love it, now off to spending money on the stain and Tim Holtz sprays! Have a beautiful week.

[@artyinkyfingers]

Gorgeous effects. And oh my, the tattered rose with the pewter is a fab combination. Love your stencils too. xx

[@fernstew]

You never fail to inspire and encourage me.. .I am very interested in Stanz by Patty Pocket. Have a glorious Sunday

[@christineandersen1220]

Stunning!! Love your techniques!!

[@Engelhafen]

Nacre is also an eng,ish word snd it is mother of pearl - buttons are often made of this material

[@NicoletGroen]

Hi, Robin! I loved your video but I am in the Netherlands and am wondering if there is an alternative for Stainz that would be available in Europe.

[@rlturnerdesigns]

Robyn i am in love with these looks.

[@RobynMcClendon]

I'm so glad you love them! I can't get enough of experimenting on my Gelli plate always something new to discover xo

[@dfrost6573]

Love it! I believe “nacre” is what the coating of a pearl is called...?

[@RobynMcClendon]

Yes You are right! :)

[@kathleenmarch5211]

Mother of pearl

[@Missladylocs]

Robin, thank you for this video! I have been waiting for this topic! I am also patiently waiting for my stencils to arrive.

[@christineandersen1220]

Love this so much, I could watch you all day! I bought some of that Stanz and it works beautifully! It is a brilliant product. Take care.

[@ShoshiPlatypus]

Absolutely gorgeous... I came here recommended by Froyle who is constantly singing your praises and I can see why! I am in the process of designing my own script stencils/printables with both Oriental style and stacked journaling, as well as some miscellaneous large background stencils - a lot of work on Inkscape but well worth it! I am new to gel printing and just love the effects that you and Froyle are getting with this exciting method. New subscriber!

[@Foofie2005]

Just Beautiful ✨ ✨ I’ve never tried this art form but want to start after finding your channel! You are so enjoyable to listen to and your explanation of the process is easy to follow. Thank you, Stacy

[@michaelstrange523]

I learned so much from watching this video! Thank you so much, this is wonderful!

[@idreamofreniedesigns1416]

Nacre = mother of pearl

[@jeannemclaughlin9630]

doesn't patty's solution remind you of back when we used paint and white glue or vaseline for the paint to separate?

[@sashahedges1508]

Robyn, hope you are well. Thankyou so, so much for my prize of the Arteza metallic paints. I can’t wait to try them. This is a great video, Thankyou.xxx

[@RobynMcClendon]

Yaaayyyyyy! So glad your received them....Enjoy! And Thank you for supporting my channel :)

[@megsgonnamake]

This is so exciting..I am on my second bottle of STAINZ and I love it! I have not used it on my gelli plate ..what a great idea! I am so stoked..stayed up printing your gorgeous papers all night (lol) and I am so excited to finally make a gorgeous journal for myself ...You are so inspiring, Robyn...TFS such amazing ideas with us. Happy New Year! xx

[@ralphzaionz4029]

Great video Robyn❤️ running up stairs to my studio right now to try this gelli printing out. Thanks for everything. Ps love your stencils.Annie

[@cindybell3227]

You're a good salesperson, I just ordered some Stainz to play with.

[@craftcreek4624]

Qn: do you have a video on how to use chalk acrylics à la Seth Apter please? I love yr combinations in Distress palette - thank you

[@sueevans4110]

Maybe one day you will be able to come over to the UK and we could all meet up and play in your workshop let's hope x

[@RobynMcClendon]

I'm hoping my friend, I will definitely make that happen! :)

[@truckart]

Love the papers you made. What can be used instead of distress inks? And can isopropyl alcohol be used on the gel plate without damaging the plate?

[@jennygee9849]

beautiful backing...would look good with a silhouette too...maybe a tree?

[@RsJaneP]

Wonderful video, Robyn! I especially love the blurred, painterly effect of the stenciling on the tissue but everything you show is awesome. I just ordered a jar of the Stainz by Patty Pockets and will order some of those other supplies you recommended. Happy New Year! xox

[@RobynMcClendon]

Hi Debs yes I’m a real fan of using the tissue papers 😊 Happy New Year to you too🎊

[@RsJaneP]

@@RobynMcClendon, you are the reason I’m currently obsessed with printing on tissue! A few more weeks and I’ll be back at the gelli plate...actually, I’ll probably give it a try with my typically uncoordinated left hand today...why not?

[@martinitang]

Luv old wall gelli prints. But I keep getting blank phase in my head whenever I make transition from prints to finished art work on canvas.

[@truckart]

Could you please share how you made the frame? Thank you 😊

[@elsgussenhoven1727]

Wauw !! 👏👌👍🇱🇺💓

[@Vonnies1929]

Wow

[@terrybanet3330]

Hi Robyn, can you give some details on the dimensions of the mat board you are using. When I look online it seems the mats for smaller sizes are quite narrow. For instance for a 4x6 opening they are 5x7 giving only 1/2” around. Yours seems to have about a 5x7 opening (based on using it with small stencils) but those mats seem to be 8x10 overall. Yours seems smaller than 8x10. I like the wider borders like you are using.

[@wednesdayschild3365]

Just found you and your work is very inspiring. Thank you xx

[@RobynMcClendon]

Welcome and Thank you😍

[@marylouwilhelm9144]

How do I buy one of your stencils. I love your work

[@ritastern2949]

Also, I understand from some of your admirers, you’re their guru. I am fairly new to Gelli printing. If you can solve my biggest obstacle, you will be mine. I have watched many tutorials about print transfer with a laser print. I have bought almost all the paints that were recommended . I was unsuccessful. I am so frustrated. Perhaps you can offer some of your expertise. Many thanks. Wa

[@potho21]

NACRE, would be "mother of pearl"

[@vickihollander6527]

So so Gorgeous and inspiring My questions:... .is it possible to use a Blick matte instead of the chalk paint and have it work? And what palette paper -palette are you using? Thank you so!!

[@cindyhenry1410]

Beautiful techniques here. I’m only just starting to use my plate and the results are.....meh. Either my brayer is crappy or I don’t know what I’m doing (or both lol). What do you typically do with your finished prints? TYFS ❤️🦋💜

[@ritvaljungqvist6666]

Love your imaginative work. Could you use a glass or acrylic plate? Gelli plates are so expensive to buy on line from where I live.

[@annevanderlaan6441]

You can make your own. Look up on KZbin.

[@ritastern2949]

We’re the pulls all done with tissue paper in the beginning of this video

[@PainterLady]

I'm so glad I found you Robyn. You're amazing and inspiring! How do you go about framing tissue paper or any of the other papers? Do you have to glue them on to some sort of stiff backing?

[@susanbailey5231]

Brilliant video, loved the techniques and colours. The Paper Artsy paints are amazing . Just wondered if have you tried their gold and white fire ones yet ?

[@RobynMcClendon]

Yes I have they are amazing products! :)

[@jeannemaxon9342]

Where can I get the stain by Patty, please?

[@barbaraperna5536]

😊

[@ritastern2949]

Which spray sis you use this e Tim Holds spray or the oxide spray?

[@beckyraver7959]

So what kind of paper do y'all use when making these?

[@gerriekaychurch658]

What brand is heavy cream please?

[@k-creationskristinhuxford4531]

I was wondering what the ink was that you made your mark making with. I really like the consistency of it.

[@avanellehansen4525]

Sumi. Found with calligraphy products

[@ritastern2949]

I checked chalk paints and it said fresco finish. Is that the same?

[@ritastern2949]

Where can I purchase your printable sans stencils?

[@golalehkamran9529]

What is I zinc please?

[@emmablume7854]

I so love your videos Robyn ! but so frustrating as many of the products cannot be bought in the uk...unless you pay nearly £100 postage! for the hammermill paper. Anyone in the uk find good quality paper here ? Still lovely to watch but a bit like looking at yummy cakes in a shop window which you cant have!

[@RobynMcClendon]

Hello my dear Emma we can't have you frustrated on the other side of the pond :) Here is a comparable paper on Amazon UK Color Copy Copier Paper Premium Super Smooth 160gsm A4 White Ref CCW0350 [250 Sheets] Also it looks like they have the Tim Holz distrees sprays here's a link but not the color just a place to begin looking to track down the colors I was using the list is in the description below the video! Tim Holtz - Ranger Tim Holtz-Distress Oxide Spray-Crackling Campfire, 2 oz Now the Stainz you can only get from Patty's etsy but you can still experiment without the stainz the results are still stunning I hope this helps xo

I was wondering the same thing. Beautiful work though.
