Summer of Color week 2

Yesterday I showed you how I played with the gelli plate and ended up with these prints.
And then wasn't sure what to do with them!

Do you use Pinterest?  You can find me here.  I was pinning things yesterday and wondered whether there was any point as the whole thing was supposed to be about inspiration and I have rarely used the hundreds of things I've pinned to inspire me.  However yesterday I came across a doodle/zentangle sampler that I had pinned and realised the way the page was structured would be a great way to use the gelli plate prints I'd made.

So here it is: my orange and hot pink page.

Thanks for stopping by.

  6. I've read about gelli plates online but still not quite sure exactly WHAT they are. For someone who doesn't want to sink a lot of $$ into a new product/technique until she tries it out... is there something else you can use as the "plate" to give the technique a test drive?

      I resisted the gelli plate until I was offered a used one with a discount price!
