Default New Gelli Plate Video

Should this go under tools or techniques? : )

In any case, modifying blocks to do Gelli plate prints with carved or die-cut fun foam, thumbtacks, floor tile placement pieces, chipboard stars, and on and on. How fun is this?!

Wow! That really does look like fun! Who knew you could use so many different everyday items to create art?!

Some of my favorite marks were made with an old fashioned hard pink plastic hair rolller - both the circle end and the pointy parts pressed or rolled.

A LSS puts out bins of weird stuff for their "50 Shades of Play" Gelli plate classes. They gave me the roller since I went nuts for it. : )

They have piles of glue stick designs - glue stick melted on a craft mat and pulled off when cool. They can be large and don't need to be stuck on a block.

Netting from orange or onion bags, plastic things that hold bottles of soda together, stamps - though clean them right away - including the large "art foamies" stamps, bubble wrap, the open end of toilet paper rolls, crumpled cling wrap...

You don't need to attach your textures to a block unless they're small and you want a pattern, like the thumbtacks. And gentle with the hard objects! I'm going to make a few blocks. : )
