Yeah yeah looks very cool and all that but sadly it doesn't seem to work in my area. 😩 The ink or the paper of the magazines is the wrong kind somehow.
Good video w lots pf possibilities. .. i have bee n trying w all kind of magazines can you let me know which are the ones that worked. Better... thanks..🎉
@@NitsaCreativeStudio Thank you for replying. I found one local store that sells Real Simple but held off buying in case you replied. I appreciate you letting me know because I've just not been successful with image transfers, so maybe I'll give RS a try! Thanks!
@@NitsaCreativeStudio Right, I've not tried Vogue yet because it's not available in any local stores, so will have to order a copy. I've tried a few I thought would work, fairly glossy, but I think the pigments in the ink are not strong or high-quality enough. Thanks again, Nitsa! 😃
Thank you for such an easy to follow tutorial. Quick, to the point, and lovely creations. I look forward to watching your other videos. Thank you for sharing your talent.
Thank you for this beautiful presentation. You provided clear and detailed instructions on how to transfer magazine images and your end results are amazing.
I keep trying to do this and it just isnt transferring. I am getting some new magazines and try them. No clue what is happening. I get the print not the pictures.
Thank you very much, my daughter an me love your tutorials but unfortunately we can not get this technic working and cannot figure out why :D why my (same) colors just overlay the whole image after pressing it on the gelly? I used a standard printer paper to transfer, could that cause the problem? I always don't get any imprint of the image on the gelly, just complete clean as the color gets absorbed by the transfer paper... many thanks madame.
Sorry to hear that but there could be many reasons why the transfer doesn't work. Try to change things in your process, sometimes it can be something simple like too much or too little paint. Also try watching this video I made recently: th-cam.com/video/Kmd_Il7VUOs/w-d-xo.html
Its hard to tell without seeing your process, but make sure to use heavy body paints (like Amsterdam standard series), glossy or semi glossy magazine pages (they don't all work!) and gelpress or gelliarts gel printing plate 👍
Thank you Itzel! 💛 I tried both glass and acrylic sheet and it worked just fine, however, I wasn't able to lift the image off the plate so far, so obviously more experimenting is needed 😅
Its hard to tell without seeing all the steps in your process, but change around things in your process, sometimes it can be something simple as too much or too little paint.
I need some help. I watched one of your videos where u use sticky paper with lines. I ordered it on amazon March 3rd & still have not received the sheets..I forgot the name & would appreciate if you could let me know the name of these transfer sheets. If I could only remember what I ordered then I can check with amazon to see why I have not received them. Thanks- Margalit
Hi Margalit, maybe you are asking about the transfer paper by the Hippie Crafter? I mentioned it in this video: th-cam.com/video/x4JNInOlgSQ/w-d-xo.html

When I pull a print off with a thin layer of paint after letting the first layer dry it never seems to pull off cleanly - quite a lot stays on the gelli pad. What should I be doing differently? My pad is new, I'm wondering if it will work better when I've used it more?Thanks.
It might, and sometimes I find that even warm dry weather makes it difficult to lift the image off the plate. Maybe try not to let your image dry all the way and lift it when its still somewhat wet 👍
This was such a good question because I was experiencing the same thing not all the paint lifting off the jelly plate or not lifting up at all I thought perhaps it was the paint I was using and it also seemed the more opaque the paint the less the image would transfer. So I started adding gel medium to the top layer layer I sometimes try to spritzing it with water before I lifted it LOL. But I think it’s a good suggestion perhaps not to let it dry all the way will try it
Hi, it could be a number of reasons. Might be too much paint or maybe the wrong kind of paint. Try to change things around and play with different elements in your process 😀
I copied a lot of photographs at Staples which I assumed was a giant laser printer. Not one image was I able to pull. All the paint stayed on the paper. So I’m thinking it’s probably something that Staples is using. But as you suggested sometimes it’s good to change the paint or try a different magazine.
@@NitsaCreativeStudio I am sorry I can’t get the gel plate from Amazon. They are out of stock and don’t know when they will be available x I will keep watching
Yes! You can make cool family monoprints by printing your photos with with a laser printer. As far as the chromo paper goes, it might be a little too heavy, but you can print on a standard printer paper. It doesn't need to be glossy as long as you print it with a laser printer.
You make this look so doable. Makes me want to run out and get acrylic paints to try this.
wonderful! thank you 💛
I’m impressed. Such an effective and simple process.
🥰
Great tutorial and very informative and short! Loved it. Thank you.
Love your videos and I’m learning so much from you ! Thanks😊
Your demo for technique perfect and well done 👍
Thankyou for this fab tutorial. 🥰
Do you have to use a dark paint in order to get the image to transfer? Thank you for a GREAT tutorial!!
Yeah yeah looks very cool and all that but sadly it doesn't seem to work in my area. 😩 The ink or the paper of the magazines is the wrong kind somehow.
great video with multiple applications!
Awesome ❤
Thank you. This was immensely helpful!
Thank you Jennifer 🥰
It’s like magic 😮 fantastic..thank you for this..love your gloves 🥰
😂 thank you 🌹
Beautiful! I just tried this, and it didn’t work. Not even close. Not sure what I did wrong.
some magazines don’t work, the ink thickness is very important but it’s probably the magazine. i’ve found shiny-ish magazines work like vogue and elle
@@pj.2445 thank you so much for resoponding . I will try those
Thank you for advice my prints working now.
Yay! That's great news!! 👍
Love your art, thanks for sharing. Your book is in my amazon cart
Awesome! Thank you! 🧡🌼
Good video w lots pf possibilities. .. i have bee n trying w all kind of magazines can you let me know which are the ones that worked. Better... thanks..🎉
Most glossy high fashion magazines work, like Vogue. I also like to use some diy magazines with glossy pages.
Not sure what I am doing wrong, but all of the paint comes off of the gel plate and ends up on magazine print.
Very cool!
🧡🌼
Thanks so much!!
You're welcome!🥰
THANK YOU A LOT!!!!
I have your book. Thanks
This is amazing. For some reason I am trying and none of my prints are staying on the plate? I am using acrylic paint in a tube.
It might be the magazine, because not all magazines work with this process. Try the glossy pages of fashion magazines like Vogue. Thank you 💛
Nitsa, so the images from the magazine Real Simple work very well on the gel plate? Thank you.
Yes they do work for me quite well 👍
@@NitsaCreativeStudio Thank you for replying. I found one local store that sells Real Simple but held off buying in case you replied. I appreciate you letting me know because I've just not been successful with image transfers, so maybe I'll give RS a try! Thanks!
Since you're a beginner maybe try high quality glossy pages fashion magazines like Vouge first.
@@NitsaCreativeStudio Right, I've not tried Vogue yet because it's not available in any local stores, so will have to order a copy. I've tried a few I thought would work, fairly glossy, but I think the pigments in the ink are not strong or high-quality enough. Thanks again, Nitsa! 😃
Great video - thankyou. What is the plate you apply the paint to please?
It is a gelpress. I believe I have it listed in the description below the video 👍
will this technique also work on fabric?
Yes defenitely! maybe not all fabrics, but should work on cotton.
nice vid, didn't work tho. close a couple of times but no joy, tried different paper texture, different paints. good fun tho
can you do that with fabric.
Yes, definitely, check out this video: th-cam.com/video/v3cSxX44kJM/w-d-xo.html
Does this work with books as well ?
Yes, definitely! not all books of course but yes, some work great!
😢my paper is sticking on all my attempts more paint less paint
Transfer Is 1 x 1. Original loss it
Yes it's a great video!!
Thank you Sky!!
totally does not work for me. don't know what i'm doing wrong but can't get one good print!
HOLY MOLY!!!
Now I know why I’ve been hoarding magazine pictures… and brayers! Lol
THANK YOU!
off to buy a gel plate
I have spent hours doing this. Does not work. Only success with a black and white drawing. Why are my magazine transfers not working? Help!
I'm at my wits end trying to transfer magazine photos to the gelli pad. Nothing ever transfers?????
Thank you for such an easy to follow tutorial. Quick, to the point, and lovely creations. I look forward to watching your other videos. Thank you for sharing your talent.
This is pretty amazing! Thank you for creating this inspiring tutorial!!
Glad it was helpful! Thank you 🧡🌼💜💚
Thank you for this beautiful presentation. You provided clear and detailed instructions on how to transfer magazine images and your end results are amazing.
I just love your honest and clear instructions. For someone inexperienced like me, is very important. Thank you very much.
I keep trying to do this and it just isnt transferring. I am getting some new magazines and try them. No clue what is happening. I get the print not the pictures.
It does take some experiment to get all the right variables in line for it to work 👍 The main thing is to not give up
Thank you very much, my daughter an me love your tutorials but unfortunately we can not get this technic working and cannot figure out why :D why my (same) colors just overlay the whole image after pressing it on the gelly?

Usually it's because the magazine uses a different print method. Apparently fashion magazines work
This is an excellent video with mini important details to make gel printing image transfer work. And your prints turned out lovely! I’m sure
Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you so much! 🥰
Thank you so much for this very helpful and informative video. Really appreciated. :)
Glad it was helpful!💛
Wow!!! A whole new world to explore!
🧡🌼
Wow! Simply awe inspiring! I have to try this it’s an incredible technique. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks so much Suzanne 😊🤗
Merci beaucoup pour cette vidéo.
I'm havng zer o luck with this...Ii end up pulling all the ink offf the plate. I'm using images from old Life magazines
I don't remember trying pages from Life magazine, so I'm not sure if they work.
I tried different magazines and can't get anything to transfer...idk if it's the roller or the paint or the transfer board but nothing is working
Its hard to tell without seeing your process, but make sure to use heavy body paints (like Amsterdam standard series), glossy or semi glossy magazine pages (they don't all work!) and gelpress or gelliarts gel printing plate 👍
How hard do you press with the beater when transferring onto the blank paper?
I put some pressure, it's something you can experiment with. Sometimes I just put a heavy book on top until it dries, and this helps the transfer.
Can a glass or acrylic plate be used instead of the gel?
Amazing work
Thank you Itzel! 💛 I tried both glass and acrylic sheet and it worked just fine, however, I wasn't able to lift the image off the plate so far, so obviously more experimenting is needed 😅
Thank you so much for this great video. I have so much problems with foto transfer till now. Now I go ant try your stlye
Can’t get this to work! Help!
which magazines are you trying to transfer from? they don't all work equally
Another excellent tutorial. I am enjoying your channel. Thank you for sharing. 😀
Superb artwork..thanks and keep up with all the blessings.
amazing!!! thank you
Great video!
super explaination thank you
Love it. I'm gonba try.
Awesome.
Clear explanations...enjoy your creativity...new subscriber!
Welcome aboard! thank you Rebecca 🥰
Nitsa -- do you think it's possible to transfer a magazine image to fabric using clear acrylic medium instead of acrylic paint? Love your channel!😀
Yes, there are many ways to transfer with acrylic medium, so you don't really have to use a gel plate for image transfer.
You were consistently successful with these image transfers. How do you keep the image from getting smears when you lift up the magazine page?
It might smear if you use too much paint. Another reason might be that your paint is watery? If so, try switching to heavy body paints.
Épatant ! Merci du partage
Thank you so much for this video. I really LOVE your work!! Hey what color Amsterdam blue is that? Thanks!!
Thank you so much! 🥰 I believe the blue paint you're asking about is the Turquoise blue. (and sorry about the late reply)
When i pull up my magazine page there is no print on the plate? What am i doing wrong?
Could be because the paint is to thick. You only need a very thin layer. Then make sure most of the paint comes off the plate onto the magazine page.
Love your video! Thank you for sharing this technique! I'm looking forward to trying this!
Sweet!! Thank you 🥰
Oh wwwooowww this is awesome! I can't wait to try it!!!
Sounds good! 👍 Thank you Julie 🌼💛
I gave it a try and couldn't get it to work, any tips?

Could you please let me know what is the transfer pad and where to buy it? I love the effect.
I think you're asking about the Gel Printing Plate. There is a link to purchase it on Amazon under the video 👍
@@NitsaCreativeStudio Thank you! You inspired me to try this technique on a canvas.
Sounds great 👍 please keep me updated
What if all the paint stays on magazine paper?
Hi, it could be a number of reasons. Might be too much paint or maybe the wrong kind of paint.

!! I love it!!
Will it work with family photos that I'll print on Chromo pages?
Yes! You can make cool family monoprints by printing your photos with with a laser printer. As far as the chromo paper goes, it might be a little too heavy, but you can print on a standard printer paper. It doesn't need to be glossy as long as you print it with a laser printer.
