Welcome to the Gelatin Printing Enthuiasts Facebook Group blog hop. It’s my turn to post today so I thought I’d share how I make post cards from my Gelli prints. They could be on paper or fabric, but the prints I’m using here were done on iron-on interfacing as shown on the Gelli website. You […]

It was all part of G Fest, a regional, annual festival. We […]

A couple of new Gelli prints in my sketchbook. The 1st has some collage added. The 2nd is overlapped prints using stencils. Then I decided to cut a new stencil from drafting film. I’ll be using it with my Gelli plate, so I cut away 1 side – it can be used as a stencil […]
