Remember mood rings? I thought they were so magical when I was a kid. Well, I think my art journal is my newest mood ring. I was feeling happy, really happy, almost like I was on top of the world. It was a really great day. I grabbed a stack of Gelli Plate printing leftovers [...]
Gelli Plate
Jack, his magic beans, and the beanstalk all came to play in this art journal page that was sparked by a Gelli print! I’m guesting over at Artists in Blogland today with a video of how this page developed. The beanstalk thing makes perfect sense in the video…well, maybe it just makes sense in my [...]
My muse loves it when I try to get brownie points by actually listening to her when she drops by…if I listen to her, I bet she is more likely to come and play again very soon! My starting point was this paper with the layers on this Gelli print calling to me. My muse [...]
I wish I could tell you I planned this background carefully, meticulously adding each layer. Nope. It was from a Gelli printing session. My addiction to that plate is becoming undeniable. It is a constant source of joy so I have no intention of giving it up! So much joy that it is the basis [...]

Okay, confession time, there is stuff all [...]

A Gelli Plate is just like having your own private paper store. Using old scrapbook papers and dictionary pages with the Gelli Plate I unintentionally created a coordinating set of papers! These papers sparked my art journal page for Artsy Fartsy. Why did I have my Gelli Plate out? Because it is time for another [...]
I loved seeing what everyone created on their Gelli Plate and missed it once the party was over. So I decided that the party should go on! On the 1st of each month I will have a post dedicated to the Gelli Plate and a link party that will be open all month. The next [...]
