I subscribed a few weeks ago when I got my first gel plate but I've never commented before. Your work IS INSPIRING! I love that you're fearless about trying things and letting us see what the outcome is even if it wasn't what you were going for. Thank you for your time and generosity. So appreciated!
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave a comment! And for subscribing.
Well I just use inexpensive paper, so no big loss if it doesn't work out. lol
I love all your print tutorials. I would like to see ways that you are using them. I’d like to see what anybody is doing with them. I see myself having piles of these beautiful prints, but very little use of them. Please show us your artwork.
Yes I hear that. I will make a note of your suggestion for a future video. Thank you!!!
I really enjoy the fact that you are just playing with things to see what happens. That's my favorite kind of art. 😁
Glad you enjoy it!
Your instructing is very clear, and so pleasant. Your willingness to experiment is very inspiring. And so, so many of the prints are just beautiful. Thank you!!
Thank you so much!
These are great prints! None of them were boring. I like them so much! Can’t wait to try this. And grinding the instant coffee is a great idea. Thanks, Denise, I’m so glad you took the plunge into TH-cam.
Thank you so much Ruth Ann. It took me a long time to do decide but no regrets!!!
Denise, your prints just wonderful! Thanks for sharing all your ideas and the inspiration.
My favorite one is the coffee and water! Coffee dyed paper is huge in junk journals right now and this is a less intimidating way to do it! Thanks!
Thank you!!!! So glad it was helpful!
How much fun; thanks for the great new ideas!
you are very welcome.
LOVED the second pull! Awesome!
thanks so much!
Love the experimentation that happened in this video and so of those print were pretty special, thank you so much for sharing
Thanks! Glad you liked it!
Denise, those prints are stunning and superb. I really love 💕 ever single one ☝️. Thank you so much xxx Mags
Awwww, you said you're shy. You're doing Fantastic. Not only are you Inspiring, you're sharing great information. Thank you. 😘💐💜👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
awww thank you. I appreciate that very much.
Love the prints you came up with. Fun watching you experiment.
Thanks! If you have any ideas, pass them along and I will try them!
Loved how that turned out
thank you
This is a great experiment! I loved the effects you were getting with the instant coffee. I even liked it when the grounds were more chunky! I think you are very inspiring and I love your voice overs! You are calm and I love your giggle. Thanks for sharing, and I hope you have a great week!
Thank you so very much. The chunky grounds did look cool in the end, it just looked a little gross on the scrap paper. lol Reminded me of baby poop. LMAO! oh boy. And thank you so much for saying you like my voice overs. It's getting a tiny bit less nerve wrecking. lol I get known for my giggle where ever I go. Been that way since highschool. I don't think it's gonna end. lol Have an awesome week and I can't thank you enough for your sweet comments.
This was fun. Very different results than I anticipated. Thanks.
Glad you enjoyed it!
oh wow, all the prints are AMAZING!
awwww thank you
These are SPECTACULAR! I'm going to have to try the coffee method today. Thank You!
Thank you! Did you end up trying it?
Everything is really wonderful, Denise..... Really!!!!! Thanks a lot!
I really appreciate it. Thank you
Never would have thought of this but you got some really nice and unique prints!
Adore !!! Thank you Denise !😊😘
It was spectacular! I love this and am going to give it a try. Thanks!
yay! Thanks.
Have fun!
I love your results! Thank you!
thanks so much!
Really grateful for your experimentation. Thanks for sharing!
Thank you, I am trying to think of more things to try for you all!
Totally enjoyable and inspiring!!
Thanks so much!
I really love the patterns you’ve created. 🧡
Thank you! 😊
Thank you for these prints and another different medium. I like the scrap paper off to the right side just as much as the prnts
You are so welcome!
lol That happens sometimes. The off prints look just as good as what you're 'trying' to make!
Thank you
Spectacular!!!!!
thank you!
I just brought my first gel plate and I'm so excited to learn how to use it. Thank you so much for your videos and tips&tricks you are sharing ❤
Thank you so much!
Gel plates are awesome! You're going to have so much fun!!!!
I love to watch all the outcomes of your work. A couple of the prints remind me of the night sky with the stars. And thank you for all the time and patients that goes into all of this. The print that you pulled using the stone increase with blue under the stencil and then used a vintage white paint on top and pulled the print...I tried that one but not with the same stencil and it came out nice. All the different looks are so fitting for the world in which we live. I know this is an older video but I have missed so many and I'm trying to catch up. lol
Thank you. These older gel printing videos are most popular and still get the most views today. So it's totally okay. Watch any video you want in any order you want! lol I like that you're trying the techniques as well and liking the results! That is awesome!
Coffee and graphite? Amazing ideas! I go and try them out! Thank you!
Have fun!
Thanks
love this video!!Lot of nice textures and colors!thank you for sharing!
Thank you so much! I'm glad you like it!
Keep them coming, great work, inspirational.
thank you
Loved this and I loved all the results! 👏👍💞
Oh thank you!
So incredibly inspiring! I thought everything you tried was gorgeous and different. Even the colors you used are all colors I love, but some I had never thought to use together. Thank you so much for sharing 💗
Thanks so much!
Oh you have made me want to get my Gelli press out again, thank you for all your inspiration x
lol that's great! And you are more than welcome!.
Thank you so much Denise, I really really love ❤️ every single one ☝️ of these incredibly stunning gorgeous prints you’ve made today. This is the second time I’ve seen this, and it’s as good as it was when I first saw it!!!!!!! I really really love ❤️ how you do all the leg work for us all. You are truly an inspiration to us all. Please stay safe and well too xxx Mags

Oh wow! Thanks. What a wonderful compliment!
You got some beautiful prints from your experiment with coffee and graphite, Denise!! Thank you for the great idea!!!
thanks so much!
Oh! I thought they were incredibly cool‼️
Love your work and your willingness to try new ideas. I've dyed paper with coffee, but never thought about using it on a Gel Plate. You are an inspiration!
Thank you so much!
I love your sense of color. Thank you for sharing what they are and who makes them.
thanks so much!
I love your creative spirit and Your voice is so soothing.
oh, thank you so much. so sweet.
Denise, I love your work and many… Cool end results!!!
Thank you so much!
Love it!!
Thank you!
Very cool. You're giving me creative goosebumps.
lol That's awesome! lol LOVE that!
I definitely like to watch your videos. Very inspirational
Thank you so very much!
That was a wonderful video! Love your voice. Calming.
awwww thank you.
Fun video to watch.
I liked the coffee with the large crystals, thought it added character to the paper.
Thank you. I liked it too, it was just really sticky! lol
Fabulous prints, thank you so much xx😍😍
You’re welcome 😊
Really enjoyed this, very educational and inspirational
Thank you so very much!
These are so cool👍♥️
thank you!
Absolutely love your prints and colors. Thank you for showing us how you mix those colors to get those combos. The ABC's of it is so easy when you know how. Thank you!
Thank you so much!
All you have to do is play and then try to remember what it is you liked. That's the hard part - remembering! lol
@@DeniseLush Or Heaven forbid I should have to watch again....That's what is so great about TH-cam!
@@gingerwhalen7734 yes I Love TH-cam!!!
I've not even got a Gelli Plate yet but your videos are really making me want to buy one and have a go. I love your prints and the cool way you describe what you're doing. I love your videos and you have really inspired me.
Thank you so much. That is such a wonderful compliment. Thank you. I love the gel plate, honestly. It's very addicting. lol
What gorgeous prints, so many of them should be framed, especially the autumnal looking ones. I'm still learning about working with my gelli plate, and have come to the conclusion that I need to learn to be patient, and wait till each layer dries! Thanks so much for sharing xxxxxxx
OMG YES! Patience is key. It's hard, but worth it. And as for learning...just play and experiment. That's the best teacher! Have fun!!!!
Your gellies are great! 🤗
thanks
I love the way you just keep going with more colour, not cleaning the plate. Some of the final pulls are just stunning!
Thank you. That's how I get the prints I like. By NOT cleaning my plate!
What a great video! I didn’t think any of the prints you pulled were less than fabulous.
Oh thank you! so sweet
Thank you so much Denise. I enjoyed the video and the voice over was perfect 👌 and soothing. I could see the potential and will give them a go.🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼❤️
thanks so much!
Great and inspiring. You don’t have to say so many negative things about your work. It’s a process!
thanks so much!
Hi Denise. Brilliant video. You always seem relaxed in your videos, with a calm voice. It is so much easier to take in what you are saying, and what the products are you are using, and how you are doing things. Will definitely try the coffee idea! Thank you.
thank you so much. I'm happy to hear that people are okay with my voice overs. I was so nervous about doing them.
really love the white voids the graphite powder leave fun
it's cool isn't it! I tried baby powder as well (different video) but I have to say I prefer the graphite powder.
C'est absolument magnifique, Denise💐💐💐🙆🏻🙆🏻🙆🏻. Bravo! Bonne continuation.... Je vais appliquer vos conseils !
Thank you
Beautiful!! I am just getting started and this is very helpful.
Thank you! I am so glad I could help!
great backgrounds also. Thank you for your inspirations
thank you!
Denise these prints are awesomeness 🌹♥️🌹
awww thanks so much!
Yumminess!!! Getting my plate out and gonna play....🤗 Every page was superior ! TFS
Awesome! I love it when my videos make people wanna play!
Girl- those prints are awesome and Quin gold
Nickel Azo Yellow is stunning! Thanks!
Thanks. Yes, I love that color too!!!
Love the coffee and water print at 11:37! Gorgeous!
thank you. I think it could be a good beginning to something!
Interesting results adding the coffee and graphite...
thanks
Love these
thank you!
Wow!!! Amazing! So great. I’m a newbie to the gelliplate and I hope to get wonderful prints just like yours. 😁
It is so much fun! You're going to be hooked. Just play and experiment! And have fun!!!
I liked all the pulls. Always a good time watching your videos. Would like to see how you use these beautiful papers. Keep up the good work!
Thank you so very much!!!
I love your great backround 😍👏🤩
Thank you!!
LOVE YOU WORK
awwww thank you!!
I love every single print! I used to think when I looked at some of my prints "what on earth am I going to do with that" and awww that didn't turn out so good" but then found that when I used them to make tags and things they took on a whole new lease of life. I love using fine salt particles they give a good look, and I had a phase where I just decided to do plant material, then I had a phase where I tried thread and string 'n' things. Now I have so many pages lol. It is so addivtive I love it. I have popped over from treasure books channel and glad I did so you have a new subbie. TFS x
Thank you so much for subscribing! Treasured Books channel is pretty awesome!
Yes I have a box full of prints! Cause once you start, that's it! lol It is incredibly addicting!!! lol
Just gorgeous prints, I actually loved the coffee and water print!!!!.. omgeeee😍😍. Thank you for your inspiration
you are very welcome! Glad you enjoyed it.
Me, too! I can’t wait to do this!
@@swl9270 that's great!
love it alllll
thanks so much!
Really love ur videos... you tickle me when you experiment with things... I have a package of instant mashed potatoes flakes that I don’t use... thinking about shaking some on a gel plate... with & without water. Just to see what I get. I love finding things around the house that make unique marks/patterns on the plate. I stocked up on things while I worked up my courage to begin Gelli plating cuz I had a feeling I would fall in love with it... lol But, I was actually correct!!! I sooo love playing with mine!!! Have many many acrylic paints from when I painted wood chunks so that’s what I’m trying to use up as I watch these vids and make a list of replacement paint & colors. Thanx soo much for your videos! I know they’re a lot of work but you make them look easy! Lol. Yes. I just subscribed and will be catching up with the rest of ur vids. Be seeing ya! ~Bobbi
Thank you so much.
hmmm I have instant potato in my cupboard as well. lol
Yes, I think it's rare that somebody tries gel printing and DOESN'T like it! Usually it's addiction almost right away.
Have fun experimenting and thank you for subscribing and enjoying my videos!
I thought I had seen all your videos. My stacks of prints keeps growing, but lately I’ve been blindly grabbing and using them to weave paper. It’s fun and relaxing. Thanks for being the influence for my habit/obsession. I may even get brave and post (Lush’s Creative Peeps).
OMG yes, the stack of gel prints easily grow out of control! The weaving is a great idea for the prints!
There's no need to be nervous about sharing what you're doing!
Really awesome techniques Denise!! Love how your prints turned out!! I must try this!! TFS!! :-)
Thanks so much Darlene!
I love all your prints. It was fun seeing how they turned out. I am going to try corrugated cardboard on my gelli prints.
Thank you.
That will be great on the gel plate! Have fun!!!
I'm starting out with gel plates. This is very insipiring!
Oh that's so good to hear! Thank you.
You're going to have so much fun and so many papers! lol
Very cool.
thanks!
Just stumbled onto your videos and laughed out loud because you print the way I do....NO PLAN!!! All out go-for-it. In my previous life I was a TV producer/reporter/on camera talent and it does take practice, just like printing on the Gelli - but with time and experience you get more confidence. Doing voice over is less intimidating and its fun to share your surprise at the pulled print. Nice job all the way around. I teach Gelli printing classes at a local art store so I'm always looking to see what the designers are doing. You gave me some great class ideas.
Thanks so much!
No, I'm not good at planning. Sometimes I wish I were...but I'm just not. I feel like if I plan - it doesn't happen. I'm better at just going with the flow.
Glad I could offer ideas for your class!
@@DeniseLush I watched the whole mini journal video just to see how you created a binding once the prints were finished....and bam! you just glued them back to back....LOL. I've been trying to figure out a way to get all my prints bound into a journal. I see you've got an album construction video...maybe that will give me an idea.
@@peggyjoyce7763 lol easy peasy!
I love your unusual ideas. Looking at the coffee makes me wonder if brusho powders would work. Thank you. Your videos are very enjoyable.
I am pretty sure I have used Brusho before. Don't think I did a video though. Can't be sure. I will give it another try for ya!
VIDEO IS GREAT, BE HAPPY AND PLEASE MORE AND MORE....🌹
Lovely gelli prints. Looks like fun. I need a gelli plate. 💎👏Bravo👏 💎 ❤xo💜xo💙xo💛xo💖xo💚
OMG yes you do need a gelli plate! They are so fun and addictive to play with!
Thank you for sharing.
The first one you showed at the end looked like outer space. I really liked that one
I had to go look to see which print you were referring to! But yes I see it now! So if you ever wanna do a galaxy spread in your art journal! lol
I enjoyed watching you try these things:-)
thank you
Awesome👍
Thanks
You're amazing. Love the cement kind of look of the graphite. I'm sure you've already thought of it but I bet Nuvo shimmer powders would be fascinating.
thank you so much. I don't have any of those powders. They do seem wonderful though!
Very nice tutorial❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️
Thank you
Beautiful :)
thank you
great prints! an idea for the graphite and coffee -- put a spoon full in a small mesh sieve or wire mesh tea ball and then tap a spoon on the side of the tea ball to help disperse the powder over the geli plate/ stencil etc like a baker does with powdered sugar- won't clump as much and will be more even
Thanks Mark. I will try that when I want to try that look! Thanks for the idea! I may have to go out and buy one tomorrow to try it!

My favorite instant coffee to do it with is Sanka as the color is so rich. I did have to put the Sanka in my grinder. I have used cinnamon, cayenne pepper, instant coffee, and I think I even tried it with tea grounds. I have some graphite and charcoal powder that I need to try it with
yes somebody suggested for me to try it with some spices as well. I've yet to do so though.
Amazing prints! ❤️👍 Really have to get some instant coffee now. 😁
remember any inexpensive coffee will do!
Thank you! 😁👍
I tried this with Sanka instant coffee ground up and unground and loved it. My husband has suggested I try it with tea leaves. The Sanka instant coffee is darker so you get more of a contrast
Awesome! Yes I bet tea leaves would be great too!
