Happy New Year! Eileen Hull and the Teams are busily engaged in a collaboration with Gel Press this month to see what magic can be made when both products are combined. Make sure to check in at the blog at each week to see what comes of our Gel Press journeys. Also check out the Gel Press YouTube channel to see what they are doing with my journal bases. It’s a match made in heaven! Time to get messy and play – let’s see the inspiration for this week!
The fabulous Karen Bearse has a treat for you! Not only has she created a wonderful collaged journal for your inspiration, she also made two Gel Press printing video tutorials which are posted on her YouTube channel. Check them out for an armload of techniques to try with your Gel Press plates. Find out more about Karen’s journal and the tutorial in her blog post too.
Inspiration Team designer Julia Aston created some beautiful (and useful) desk calendars using Eileen’s Display Stand Die. She’s a newbie at gel printing but I’d say she was quite successful! Julia has advice for other ‘new to gel printing’ folks and a tutorial on her blog that you won’t want to miss.
Flashback! Lisa Hoel here and I have a partly done Full Size Journal project for you to see… next week. I will blame my tardiness on various life circumstances and won’t bore you with the details. 😉 In the meantime, here is a timely flashback post to a cute little Notepad Die project I made last fall. Visit my blog to see the tutorial and how I used my Gel Press plate to print the covers.
