I have been wanting to make a gel print quilt. Thanks!

[@VickiParfenow]

Go for it! ❤️🙌

[@leahcohen2040]

I so enjoyed…thank you so much for sharing your style 😊

[@VickiParfenow]

You are so welcome! 🌟🫶🏻

When you pull the black print, can you use copy paper or card stock instead of tissue paper so you can use these prints also?

[@VickiParfenow]

The tissue paper makes perfect collage on my large Arches background paper . I trim the tissue into circles then glue them on with matte gel medium. I only use copy paper when I’m experimenting. I prefer to use Canson xl Watercolor paper as it is more sturdy than card stock. 🙂

What do you do while you are waiting for the prints to dry?

[@VickiParfenow]

The tissue paper release prints dry pretty fast, the watercolour paper takes a while longer. I speed up the process with a hair dryer. Also I prepare the next piece and tidy up as I go.
