I'm still making my way through the Gelliarts #marchprintingchallenge on Instagram (you can follow me at @SmilynStef).
Day 17 was Shamrock. I used these paper shamrock masks printing several layers while moving them around the plate.
Day 18 is black & white (I need a more opaque black paint) using Julie Balzer's Rows of Lines Stencil from The Crafter's Workshop.
For Day 19 – Recycle – I recycled a paper overlay from a Hallmark greeting card and used it as a mask.
For day 20 Geometry, I used the Large Betsy's Block stencil by Dylusions with Platinum and Red paints.
Day 21 is curves. I cut a large circle from a piece of typing paper and used it as a mask for applying PanPastel with a sponge. I used three new colors I added to my stash (which in hindsight were the colors of our Junior High team, the Hornets).
Day 22 was Contrast. I had intended to use black to pull these vibrant hues, but didn't get the results I was hoping for, so instead I just embraced the contrast between the neon yellow and vibrant pink. The one on the left is on printer paper and on the right I used deli paper.
Day 23 was Alcohol Ink. I had intended for the second print to be shades of blues, but because I didn't clean my stencil and the new ink activated the dried ink on the stencil, I ended-up with the cool happy accident mixing of colors.
Day 24 was monochromatic. I fell in love with all of the shades of blue.
I hope you're enjoying my gelliprinting experiments as much as I am.
