The Gelli Plate® turned plain brown lunch bags into colorful goodie bags for my upcoming workshops at Stampaway. I played with some of new stencils that were just released from StencilGirl – and I’m giving a set of them away. You can get entered to win here.
I just went to town with all sorts of paints, stencils, and the plate. The layers built up quickly and before I knew it, I had all 60 bags printed and ready for my workshops this weekend. Looking forward to seeing my on-line friends in person!
If you’re new to the Gelli Plate, I’ve got a page dedicated to getting started here. It’s loaded with information like what size to get, what paint to use, and more! Want to print in person? On September 12th, I’ll be teaching Gelli Printing: Easy as 1-2-3 at the Arts Alliance in Mason, Ohio. Find all the details here.
Here are the supplies I used. Some of these links are affiliate links which means I get a small percentage. It doesn’t cost you anything extra and you are helping me keep this blog and my videos ad free! Thank you- I don’t like ads any more than you do!
Awesome treat bags! The possibilities are endless! Loving the new stencils! Can’t wait to win them! ?❤️?
Well this sure would cheer up anyone’s lunch. 🙂
Love the bags…and the stencils are fabulous. I’d love to have them, thanks for the chance to win! Your sharing is a gift to all of us.
These are totally gorgeous, Carolyn! Nicely done.
I often stencil on paper bags but never thought Gelli printing. Very clever!
Great idea. This looks fun and exuberant!
Love how these turned out. You are a master of bright colors.
love it going to have to try it
I LOVE anything you make! Do LOVE these stencils very much!
Love the bags and new stencils. Can’t wait to meet you at Stampaway and Mason! Love your work.
Hope you’re ready for some fun! I learned how to turn on the dance lights in the room during class on Wednesday!
These look great. I just really found you and can’t get enough of your info. Going to Stampaway but just the show floor on Saturday. Wish I had resized earlier you were teaching so I could have arranged to take a class. Maybe next time.
I’ll be around on Saturday too so I hope we get to bump into each other Katie!
Are we going to be doing these in September????
We absolutely can Stephanie – it’s a really easy trick and I’ll be bringing a huge stash of stencils and other goodies to the workshop!
Fabulous! These prints are just gorgeous and you’re making me want to scrap my plans and pull out my gelli plate. TFS!
Just rediscovered the Gel plates. Having so much fun. Thanks for the inspiration…❤
Hi Carolyn! Great idea! I was thinking as the holiday season is approaching, the paper bags could be decorated in a holiday theme. Better for the environment than other wrapping paper. Children could get into the act and help out Mom. The top portion of the bag can be left blank so it can be folded over, a punch used and then thread a ribbon through it if needed.
Great idea! Daughter getting remarried. I’ll use her colors and each can take home cake and goodies. thanks. Pat
I love your videos. You inspire me to play. I love the variety of colors you use.
