it is a super fun texture and is very unpredictable. High Flow works consistently, there are other paints that will work.... but not consistently. if you try it I’d love to see the results. I love the technique.
Fun stuff. Everything turned out awesome. Thank you for the demo. The colors are wonderful . I just put out my paints for a project I'm starting to paint on fiber, I'll be using fabric paints. Using botanicals and stencils. I'm excited to paint tomorrow,
@@patvalenzuela5105 how wonderful and thank you for watching and that sweet comment. I hope you find my content to be useful. I have a variety of videos. Enjoy your time playing with paint and getting your fingers dirty.
That is a great question. No one has ever asked me that before. A botanical works in a similar manner to a stencil, a stencil is a non porous material and so is plant-life. Even more so after they have been used a few times. Paper is a porous material and the paint adheres to paper. Hope that helps.
The Media line is a fluid acrylic not a high flow acrylic so the results are not as consistent as the Golden High Flow. However if you apply the Fluid acrylics very thinly on the plate it will work if the gel printing gods are cooperating. Give it a shot and see what happens. It’s a great experiment.
Amazing and thorough instructions. Thank you for taking the time to do this. Question: about how long do you let Golden Open dry on the gel plate? Thanks!!
My pleasure and thank you for taking the time to comment. I’m pleased you found it useful. It really depends on your humidity levels but generally I’d let it sit for a few hours to overnight.
I like the way you use an acrylic sheet behind your gel plate, using it almost like a stamp when you are transferring your images to paper. Do you know what thickness the acrylic is that you're using for that sheet?
I’ve tried different techniques over the years to help position my prints. This is the one I’ve settled on that seems to work well for me. I purchase my acrylic plates from Joggles www.joggles.com/art-journals-and-mixed-media/joggles-clear-acrylic-stamp-mounts/joggles-clear-acrylic-stamp-mount-6-inch-x-8-inch-57791.htm They are 1/8” thick. Thank you for asking.
@@christyhartman thanks for the quick reply. I really enjoyed this video and find your process to be one of the best I've seen. I like your color selections a lot.
I'm curious... at the end of your videos, you put up a "Copyright" notice. Can you tell me exactly how a copyright works on items that are published for educational purposes?
I’m not really sure what you are asking me? If you need a refresher on artist copyright I would suggest that you should do some research on artist copyright.
I used scrapbooking papers which are white on one side and a cardstock weight. I also use the Pacon Ucreate printmaking paper in many of my later videos.
These are so beautiful, I love the texture. I’m going to check out the Etsy shop right now. Thanks Hugs ❤️❤️❤️
Thank you so much. Glad you enjoyed the video. Key Lime Supplies is amazing and I love her products.
WOW! Why does it leave that cool texture? Does it only resist with fluid acrylics?

I will definitely try it! I’m going to OKC Painting Palooza next Friday, so I’ll try it when I get home!
@@janetwalsh7025 have a wonderful time. Very exciting.
I had never heard of this printing craft before seeing your videos. It’s very cool!
Thank you for watching. It is such a fun messy activity.

You are so welcome! thank you for watching.
Nicely done ✅
Ahhhh thank you. You are the best.
Thank you.. loved this..
Thank you so much. I’m so pleased you enjoyed the video.
I love the botanical prints, but I am curious, why does the color not lift onto the leaves and flowers?
That is a great question. No one has ever asked me that before. A botanical works in a similar manner to a stencil, a stencil is a non porous material and so is plant-life. Even more so after they have been used a few times. Paper is a porous material and the paint adheres to paper. Hope that helps.
Does the DecoArt high flow Media leave the same kind of bubbly texture as the Golden high flow?
The Media line is a fluid acrylic not a high flow acrylic so the results are not as consistent as the Golden High Flow.

I use the lid to a glass candle as a baron.
Please I’m new to your post what paper are you using it looks like wallpaper ?
I used scrapbooking papers which are white on one side and a cardstock weight. I also use the Pacon Ucreate printmaking paper in many of my later videos.
