About This Class
Gel Printed Journal Pages is a class about taking plain white pages and adding monoprinted images to each page. This class is a way to get rid of the blank page to give you a starting point for your journal backgrounds.
In this class, we will use a gel plate to print three layers on each page. For demonstration, I use the Gelli Arts ® Gelli Plate to make prints. (Gelli Arts® LLC has kindly granted me permission to use their trademark.) However, if you do not have a gel plate, I have included a bonus lesson for a DIY faux printing plate that you can use to achieve similar results.
We will make pages for a journal by creating layers of shapes and colors using acrylic paints, assorted papers, (copy paper, tags, cardstock, and deli-paper) along with stencils to create unique and interesting pages.
Each page can be tailored to the colors you want to use, which makes it great for creating the basics of an art journal, gratitude journal, or color journal.
There’s no brush involved, but it can get messy. So bring your inner child and let’s get started!
There are 2 bonus lessons included: DIY Faux Gel Plate and The Stuttering Stencil Technique
