Pick of the Week ~ Gelli Printing

Hello Stamping Friends! Esther here sharing a fun background created on my Gelli Printing Plate!
First let’s gather our supplies.

You’ll need:
Gelli Printing Plate
Acrylic Paint in these colors: Flag Red, Princess Pink, Snow White
Paint Smoothing Tool
Heart Stencil (Firefly)

Step One: Place some dots of paint along the left side of your gelli plate
Step Two: Using your paint smoothing tool, spread the paint across the plate, blending colors as you go
Step Three: Lay down a stencil
Step Four: Pick up a print on a clean sheet of paper

Step Five: Remove the stencil from your plate
Step Six: Pick up another Print
You’ll now have a negative and positive print of your stenciled design!
Note: Depending on the amount of paint you used, you may be able to re-smooth the surface and pick up more prints

As you can see from my card, I used the negative print for the background and the positive print for the sentiment.
I also picked up some of the paint outside my stenciled area on a separate piece of paper and stamped my candy hearts on that.
