Thank you very much for this video! I'm doing printing with the exact set you're using in my Advanced Art and Design class, and I'm always happy to see the kinds of techniques that can be used. I spent so long cutting out stencils, I forgot nature makes beautiful stencils by itself! Thanks again, have a great day :D

Thank you so much for tuning in! Artifacts in nature and around the house can be the absolute best. Of course, handmade stencils are a wonderful accent as well--can't go wrong either way! Thanks again for watching and so glad you enjoyed :)

What did you call the red letter print, and what did you use to make it? I really enjoyed this video, thanks Amy. I could have done with ideas like this when I was teaching.

Amy references making a chop to sign the nature print. In this video, she is using Speedball's Polyprint Plate to create this signature easily and inexpensively. Thanks for watching!

HI, I used Speedball Poly Print which has an adhesive backing on it. I called the small stamp a "chop" which is used to sign documents in China.

Whats the best paper to use?

[@speedball_art]

In this instructional series, Amy uses a range of papers that are ideally-suited for use with Speedball's Gel Printing Plates. Among them are Bienfang Bristol Paper (smooth surface, 146lb, 238gsm), Arnhem 1618 Paper (245gsm), Speedball Mulberry Paper and Bienfang Brushmaster Poster Rolls. Thank you for watching!
