Leaf Print

Hello and Welcome

Meet today's card.

I just love how this turned out and it was so fun to try something new using my Gel Plate.

As I have mentioned before, I have been playing with my Gel Plate.  

I found this video by Lydia Fiedler and I just had to try it out.  It is simple and fun.

So here is what I did to create my card.

I began by squeezing out some grey and black acrylic paint onto my glass mat and then rolled my brayer into the paint till my brayer was covered.  

Next, I rolled the brayer over the Big Leaves stencil from A Colourful Life Designs.  It transferred the image design onto my brayer.  Be sure to just roll in one direction.  I took the brayer and rolled it onto my Gelli Plate to transfer the image over it.  I rubbed my paper over the plate to lift the print.

You just never know what you will get when using the Gelli Plate.  

When the print was dry, I mounted it onto a heavy white card base.

I stamped the sentiment with some black Versafine then mounted it to one side over my front panel with some foam dots.

Thanks so much for coming by and taking a look.
