This month’s Colorful Gelli Print Party is all about giving high five’s and celebrating our successes…and getting paint all over our hands on the Gelli Plate!
Watch Using Your Hands on the Gelli Plate on YouTube
Every day is filled with successes. It is so much easier to see the shortcomings, the struggles, and the troubles but even on the worst days there is always something worthy of a high five.
Every time I look at this patterned paper, I will be reminded to give a high five which is why I used it to make a little gift. I’ll share that video with you next week.
What did I give myself a high five for today? Taking a deep breath. I was having an argument with my computer and the computer was winning. Instead of going to irrational land, which is so easy to do when the machine is refusing to do something so simple, I took a deep breath. Actually 4 or 5 deep breaths. And that is worth celebrating!
What can you celebrate with a high five today?

So glad you showed the finished print on your blog cuz the video just can’t show all the colors and depth. Love it and loving that deli paper!!! I use that stuff all the time now!!
Well, I’m giving you a “HAND” for this post. Great idea and what messy fun to get into.
Love this fun technique – very hands on! 😀 Today I’ll celebrate getting into the studio for half an hour – didn’t expect to have the time, so I feel definitely celebratory!
So pretty and I love that the first yellow hand prints have a heart in the middle!
