What a fab easy to follow demo....I very had my gel plate over three years now and not used it 😕 you would think I was afraid of it 🤭 you made it look so easy ...I must get a grip....thank you so much....Jane North Wales UK 🇬🇧 👍👏👋
Oh my goodness! Really! Please break out the plate this weekend and give it a try. You will be hooked!
This has to be the very best video I have seen on this subject
oh gosh. Thank you.
ditto what Robin wrote. all of these wonderful prints reminded me of stained glass windows. so enjoy watching you create & play.
Thanks so much!
Print #3 and 4 ….ah perfection…color combo and the stencil…luscious
Thanks!!!
Denise, I enjoy your videos for the amazing ideas and the finished products. What I enjoy as much as that are your giggles as you are narrating. A joy to watch.
lol Thank you.
Such a simple technique with fantastic results
Thank you so very much!
great technique - Lovely prints. Interesting that the lines from the black paint beneath the stencils turns out to be almost grey or gold rather than black. Very beautiful!
Denise, I’m loving the technique you are developing. Every single print is more gorgeous than the next. I’m like you, I think Quinacridone Nickel Azo Gold is the best color ever and goes with everything. Thanks and Hugs ❤️❤️❤️
oh thank you so much.
Yes it is, isn't it!!! Love that color!
Ooh, this has given me an idea . . . 💡
All lovely, but I think #4 is my favourite x

Print #2 is my favorite for the colors and stencil. My biggest gel plate is 5 x 7 and I have some shapes but I don't play with any of them. I'll have to try this and see what happens. Looking forward to part 2. Thank you for the lesson.

Beautiful Prints .. Thankyou for sharing them 💛
Thank you!
I appreciate you taking the time to name the stencils and colors you use on each print. So helpful. Woulld plain white paint work instead of the titanium color?
Yes it would!
And you're welcome!
EXCELLENT!
cool🤗 I have to try this😀
Yay! Enjoy!
Thank you so much for this easy and effective technique. I love the results.
Thanks. I’m glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you so much Denise, I really really enjoyed watching you create these stunning and incredibly beautiful prints. I don’t think 🤔 it mattered whether put the paint on the Gelli plate or straight onto the larger one. They are really really awesome too. Please stay safe and well too xxx Mags
Thanks so much Mags!
These are really lovely. Thank you.
Thank you 😊
Great technique, love the results 🥰
thanks!
Awesome
Hay Denise ! Love your work girlfriend!!!
Oh thank you 😊
Hi Denise!🙂
Thank you for a great GP video!❤️
That would be a perfect technique for making stained glass style art using opaque black, transparent colors, and clear mediums to transfer onto clear substrates.
Most definitely!
Which substrate did you have in mind? Plexiglass, acetate, actual glass? Have you printed on any of these before? Seems like it would be tricky to get a complete print because most transparent substrates have slick surfaces.
I make a faux stained glass for cards and window catchers with vellum and paint pens. I use paint pens because the leading has to be opaque. For color I use alcohol markers. My trick is to outline and color on both sides of the vellum.
For window decoration I usually laminate a piece, but not for cards. The color eventually fades but it takes years even with Sharpies or Bic markers.
@@rtd1791 I too think it would be a little difficult with it being a slick surface. I was thinking a piece of acetate or something thin like that.
@@DeniseLush I have never even thought to use glass paint on a gel plate. It’s not something I typically have on hand. I think I have a bottle somewhere. But it seems to me that stained glass printing is something that would have to be worked out thru trial and error.
I was mulling it over and thinking that using a glass paint, one that is transparent, or starting with a clear acrylic medium and then carefully adding colorant so as not to dramatically increase opacity is a good place to start. But I think the actual rub will be the “leading”. I don’t think it will be opaque enough because the stencil in your technique removes at least some of the paint meant to be leading. But you could always trace over the lines created by the stencil using an opaque paint pen.
I have my doubts that a process like I’m thinking about will be as satisfying as the technique I already use on vellum. I trace over stained glass patterns but using a stencil would work too. Only one way to find out. Good news is I love the look your process creates with paper. No gel print is a bad gel print---just keep going, right?
@@rtd1791 it wasn't with a gel plate and wasn't transparent but I did paint a reversed painting on plexiglass with acrylic in 1984 that did not chip or scrape off later.
I know glass paints work on glass.
Something to consider, if it is being used in a window or similarly to stained glass there will be limited handling and damage.
I'm on a very limited budget so I was thinking for myself I would make homemade transparent paints using clear gloss gel medium with liquid watercolors (because I don't need to buy them) for the transparent paint (maybe a bit of mica for shimmery sparkle).
For the substrate, probably to get the most for my budget would be to use acid-free, archival safe, polypropylene document protectors then open them at the seams to make two sheets each.
I love it! Thank you! 🤩 You have a new subscriber 😉
Thanks. I have more gel printing videos on my own TH-cam channel as well. Just click on my name.
@@DeniseLush I will certainly check them out!
@@hankejoosen4029 Thanks so much. I hope you enjoy them!
You play with such abandon. And it’s so encouraging, I just want to play. As always, love your art.
Thank you so very much. I love that comment!
I loved 3, 4, 5, and 6. They were beautiful. I'm new at this, so please tell me why you don't pull your off and just put more paint on, sometime white and sometimes blk. I'm in the dark.
❤️❤️❤️
Molto bello
Truly these are all a work of art! Maybe you said but I missed it .. . Were these created on canvas paper? I can't wait to try this and see what you create next week.
Sorry. I don't think I did say. I just used regular printer paper.
oh, and thank you. lol
These are gorgeous. You don’t let the white paper stay on the unbleached titanium to dry, correct? I’m new and think I’ve seen others let it dry. Just trying to work it all out in my mind. Thank you for the tips.
I can't seem to find Part 2, of what you did with the prints. Can you post the link for me please
It looks like you have a yellow/green color on there to start. If so, is that listed here? Also, what type of paper are you using? thank you! Great video! you make it look so easy!
Wow I adore that are you using a soft brayer
Thanks
Hi Denise. Even though you said the first print was not so good I loved it , we are all scared when we start I have only been doing this for a few weeks, but just pushing the paint around on the pad ,seeing what colours come up is lovely thank as people have said you are the best to watch 💜
@@joychip5994 oh thank you so very much!
I cannot find part 2 of this video. Can someone please post it? Thank you!
Part 2 always comes the following Saturday.
th-cam.com/video/mb6z0RYpBfc/w-d-xo.html
Love them all!! Can you tell me why the existing green paint on the plate never pulled up on your prints?
Hi Liz. The pattern would be paint that’s on the other side of the gel plate. And then that green/yellow tone overall on the plate is just stained form alcohol inks.
How do they all come out so shiny?! I love them. My gel prints are usually flat/matte. Is it the paper? The paints? Your shiny sparkly self? I'm so curious
It's my shiny sparkly self. lol
It's the Golden paints. They just turn out differently than other paint. That's why I Love using them for gel printing.
@@DeniseLush Thank you! I've been working on upgrading my acrylic paints, so this is good timing!
@@kj7238 They're not necessary for gel printing but they definitely do look good!
I love your results!!! Could you share where you purchased your stencils?! Thank you❣️👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Thank you. The names of the stencils are listed in the description below the video.
Do you mean Gel Press Products Stencils?! That’s all I found.
@@lucyjones3493 In the description below the video it has Print 1: Stencil, TCW Geo Netting
Then it does it for each Print.
@@DeniseLush THANKYOU SO MUCH!
@@lucyjones3493 not a problem
I was looking for the follow up project video but can't find it. Can you link it here? This is a neat effect!
th-cam.com/video/mb6z0RYpBfc/w-d-xo.html
thanks
I would love to buy all six stencils, but I can only find three of them. I can’t find the onion skins, the botanical dream or the distressed lace. Do you know where I can find them?
I’ve done a lot of gel printing and don’t quite understand why the black paint that is “hidden” under the stencils doesn’t show up better.
The black paint is left on the back of the stencil.
How long does it take each layer to dry?
What type of paper are you using?
I'm using just printer paper to get rid of the paint I don't want on the plate. Then for the final pulls I am using card stock.
Can this technique be used on fabric?
I have no idea. Sorry. I don't print on fabric. You can always just give it a try!!! Have fun!
I cannot find the stencils you used.
They are all by the Crafters Workshop.
I have followed your steps and when I pull the print, the paper sticks to the gelli plate. I am using light weight card stock.. Also, I used a hair dryer to dry it before adding the top layer. Is that a problem? Most of the image seems like it is embedded in the gelli plate. Very hard to clean afterwards.
Feeling frustrated.
You should not use any heat tool on your gel plate.
Do it without the heat tool and see if it works. If not, try varying the amount of paint. Is it a gel press plate?
@@DeniseLushI tried another and air dried it. Was a little tacky. Is that OK? I put a bit more white paint for the final layer. The paper still stuck to gelli plate but not as bad. Next time I'll add more paint. I just love this technique and hope that I will get success soon. Thank you for your help.
@@debraengel5200 as long as your paint isn't moving around when you apply that final layer of paint to pull the print, you're good!
What is part 2 of this called?
