Outside of the studio, it had been one of those days filled with obstacles. Ever had one of those? I had hit the wall. So I went into the studio to escape. My mood followed me. I was hitting the wall in there too. So I decided if I was going to hit the wall it was at least going to have some color on it! Another great reason to have a stash of Gelli prints…
You can watch Gelli print brick wall in an art journal on YouTube here.
Still time to enter 2 giveaways I have going on right now!

Love your wall! Great use for Gelli prints!
What a cool idea to get your mojo working again! Love the outcome!
And a colorful wall it is! What a great idea! I think it’s about time to make some more gelli prints!
Hmmmnnnn…this might work. Will have to try it too. Thanks for the share.
Sure looked like fun! Love all the colors!!!
Love it! It so good to know other people hit a wall from time to time. My real life
has been busy and so my art has suffered. Thanks for sharing.
S.I.M.P.L.I.C.I.T.Y. It works wonders. Good for you for at least doing something. My brick walls often involve a magazine !
Hey, everyone needs a “get out of jail free” card. God knows you’ve been “ON” quite a bit lately. Good to take a easy art day for yourself. Love this idea of just cutting and playing. Great Gelli Cobblestones.
What do you know, you hit the wall and still inspired us big time! What a great way to use up Gelli Prints. I LOVE this! I am so inspired I probably won’t be able to sleep. hehe :0)
How serendipitous. I cut a foam stamp using the Cricut and one of the images from a cart (not without some difficulty LOL!) of a punching fist. I think it would be prefect “punching” thru the wall o’ prints. Lord knows I have amassed a ton of stray prints that cry out to be used up so I may just have to give it a go…..

Love the add hoc shapes of colours . Thanks for sharing on Make it Monday
Fab! such lovely bright colours and great patterns, good idea too! Spotted it on MIM xx
I see some stencil love in all your wonderful, organic shapes…..groovin to the color blobs on the page xox
I would be happy to run into a wall like that. Love how you live life sunny side up!
Sorry you are having a ruff time. But I love your coloured wall. Hope tomorrow is a far better day! xx
Love it. Building the wall is so protective of you too. I love that you had a bad and made it your own and so happy with those colors and textures. So like you. Thanks for sharing.
Love all these bright colors–so happy and cheerful. Great work of art!
Cool!
Love it. Great way to express that feeling of hitting a brick wall that we all have at some point.
Beautiful work of art. Relaxing wall to look at! :o) Thank you for sharing
Oh Carol, love that wall! (I’ve been looking at a wall peeling 3 layers of wallpaper). Awesome and yes, I have “one of those” days both in and out of the art room almost weekly 🙂
Great way to turn a lemon day into lemonade! Luv it.
Love what you have done in the journal, go with the flow I always saw, this caught my eye at MIM
Love how you hit the wall with all that awesome color!!!
Love that wall!
Nothing beats a wall of color!
Fabulous Journal Carolyn. I saw this on MIM..Loz
Love your always cheery, creative attitude Carolyn! Hope your day got better. We’ve all been there…
wow – seems so fun – love the results with beautiful color – visiting from CED – ciao ciao!
What a neat idea! If I’m going to hit a wall, I want it to be colorful, too. Love it.
Love your happy, repetitive shapes and colours! Thanks for sharing on Mandarin Orange Monday 🙂
If I ever have a “hit the wall” day this is the wall I want to run into. Such pretty colors and patterns.
