For the TLC today to get out of our comfort zone. Not long ago I purchased a gel plate and I haven't taken the time to really play with it very much. At the same time, I purchased three Distress Oxide ink pads. haha yep, only three! I do hope to buy more soon! So this time I only used the pink pad and stamped directly onto the gel plate and spritzed it with water. Made four panels!
ETA: :( I just noticed the tape pulled off some of the paper in the top left corner...sigh... oh well...
TFL!

This is oh-so gorgeous! I am shocked this is your first time using a gel plate because this looks totally professional to me. You may have inspired me to use my gel plate now. ~Karen.

The gel plate smooshed panels are gorgeous, made even more stunning by the layering you did. The black border, sentiment and tie add a dynamic, pop-off-the-card effect. Love everything about this card. Bookmarking this for future inspiration! TFS
This is so pretty! I also purchased a gel plate a few years ago and haven’t used it yet! I think I haven’t used it because I don’t like acrylic paint backgrounds on my cards (rough and chalky looking). Thank you for showing me how to use it for me cards! I LOVE your card! 😁

Very classy looking with the base layer matching the top one, and your super matting. I'm sure you'll be getting more . They are the ONLY ink I have ever bought a full set of.
