I am blown away by all the visitors to my blog! Welcome to you all! They, the internet gods, say the summer is such a slow time on the internet. Thrilled that is not the case here! So now, on with some Gelli Plate fun!
August’s Colorful Gelli Print Party is in full swing! There is so much inspiration being linked up and they are linking up all month long so be sure to stop back and check it out! There is still plenty of time for you to join in and link up too! Here are just a few…
Mary Anne has a tutorial on making your own foldnote! Now that is some happy mail!
Robin has all her Index Card a Day cards together. What a wonderful collection and she started many of them as Gelli prints.
Froebelsternchen is playing with composition. I love how her elements are all black and white against the Gelli print!
What a great way Jo did these faces – with the Gelli print shining through!
Since there are so many new visitors, I thought I’d share a few of my Gelli Plate videos that I have made. There are actually quite a lot of them. I have over 70 videos, many of them about the Gelli Plate. You can click here to subscribe to my YouTube channel.
Here’s a basic intro video for those of you who are new to the Gelli Plate. And for those who have been following my videos, you’ll get a kick out of the end when I actually clean the plate…Clearly an older video since I only clean it for special occasions….

AWWWW Thank you Carolyn for featuring my Index Cards. I can’t wait to get them all framed together (or that’s the plan anyway, ha!). Love the video using household items for patterns….I need to go play with my gelli plate today but alas, that dreaded day job is calling!
Love all the artwork that was submitted for the Colorful Gelli Print Party! What a wonderful source of inspiration this party you run gives everyone with their Gelli Plates not to mention all the time you put into your video that instruct us!
Your videos are great and I an addicted to my Gelli plates – yes, plural. I just got the largest one today and cannot wait to use it. I make envelopes with matching notecards from some of my Gelli prints. Visit my blog to see what I’ve done: http://www.bynancyoriginals.blogspot.com.
