Gelli Printing with Carolyn Dube

 

Stencil Test DriveDots and Dashes stencil by Jessica Sporn for Stencil Girl Products

I’m playing with the Dots and Dashes stencil today and so are some other great creatives. Stop on by and check them all out!

 

 

I was cleaning out a cabinet, yes, I do clean sometimes but am easily distracted by things like envelopes!   I found a stash of envelopes, such perfect timing for this Stencil Test Drive!  Out came the Gelli Plate and I began playing with paints and color…still haven’t finished cleaning the whole cabinet but I do have some great envelopes now!

Update: This is the 2nd upload(actually 3rd but that is a story I’ll vent about on Facebook ) and it seems to be working correctly! My tribute to the YouTube gods worked!

Apparently I have angered the YouTube gods.  This video is getting stuck for some people and not others.  It worked fine yesterday when I watched it & on my mobile device but not on my computer this morning…so I am re uploading it.  As soon as it is up I will add it here.  Sorry about this!

See the video on YouTube here.

Why did I need to be forgiven for my “French”- this car!  I saw it at an art fair and it blew my mind. There were several expletives I just couldn’t hold in.  The details and toys on this car- the more I looked the more I saw!    A hockey rink on the hood.  Elvis performing for Barbies on the trunk.  What a car!

I came home from a day of walk through booth after wonderful booth of art and a little craft store shopping I went straight to my art journal.  I didn’t use a single paint brush while making this!  For some reason, I really wanted to avoid the paintbrush.  Matte medium is so much easier to clean up with a Catalyst blade!  I used up some old Crayola glitter glue, grabbed some scraps off the counter, played with the super amazing Posca pens, played with my sale goodies (the neon paints and washi tapes), used up some treasures (the French grammar book and the vintage calling card), but most of all I had fun.  I captured my mood in collage and color.  Do you find your mood shows up in your art?
