- bit.ly/357SGZo What happens when you add drops of alcohol inks on a gel plate? Fun and colorful prints! See how in this tutorial- and you'll also see how making 1 little change impacts what the final print looks like! Supply list at bit.ly/357SGZo
I’m Carolyn Dube - a mixed media art adventurer who takes the intimidation out of supplies so that you can find freedom through creativity. Play with every color of the rainbow, avoid rules whenever possible, and let the little kid inside of you free through art.

You can find me designing stencils for StencilGirl Products, teaching in person and online workshops and sharing the message of O.O.P.S. here on TH-cam and on the blog, aColorfulJourney.com
What does O.O.P.S. stand for? It stands for Outstanding Opportunities Presenting Suddenly.
Those “failures” and “mistakes” that we so harshly criticized ourselves about actually became true gifts as soon as you start saying O.O.P.S. Try saying Oops in an angry tone. It makes it even more silly!
I just can’t take myself seriously when I say Oops which is just what I needed to play. I began to play, to have fun, and to embrace all of my “mistakes”.

Sparkle, shimmer, glitter and glossy...all are some of my favorite words and techniques.
It is nice to see someone doing alcohol ink in the bottles on a plate.. love it.
I’m getting back into my colorful journey after a tough year. You have inspired me once again!
Love rainbow!!! and they have some mettallic rainbow types also now!!
Love it, Carolyn!
So pretty! Can’t wait to try it.
I love the Marabu alcohol inks and have several bottles of the rainbow sparkle because well, I didn’t want to run out. I had no idea you could use these on the gel plate. Thank you for sharing as I learn so much from you.
Super cool prints. Yes, I love sparkle. Thanks for sharing!!!
I love this! Thanks for sharing this wonderful technique!
It is always so much fun to watch you play!!!🌈❤️
Thanks Nanci!
Those are so pretty! 😍😍😍😍
Love this technique and your results.
I love both of them! Great techniques
Gorgeous!!
Love your videos, always inspire me to play. I Love sparkle,more is more!!!!! Hugs, Fran XX
What a great transfer to be used with collage work, Carolyn 😉.
Hi Carolyn another really excellent demo. I really enjoyed it especially the look of the first print. Thank you again and have a Merry Christmas
Been making my own cards since the early 1980's and my saying has always been; "If it's not working, it's not sparkly enough ".
Such a cool technique on the John press! Do you think that you could spray alcohol over the inks??
Thanks for your inspiration!!!
I love both and in between great job
I like both - I can’t wait to get upstairs to play with my gel plates
Have fun printing!
This is so cool! I can't wait to try it! Thank you! :)
Love this technique, reminds me of confetti cake!
Wow, this is fantastic, super great idea. I have Maribu and rainbow, wasn’t sure what the rainbow was all about. Now I know. Haven’t used them yet, but now I’m intrigued. Tfs.
Dang, I can’t decide which one I like best! Love them both! Way cool idea.
Good thing it's so easy to switch between styles because I like them both too Cathy!
Love them💗
I have just done a splodge alcohol ink. But my bottles don’t have the pointy ends. But I still love it. I am new to to this. Love the video.
My new word for today: pizzazz! Yay, sparkles. That was fun. Great idea about card stock too, because we're working on some holiday greetings this week. It's a good day for the play.
Glad it was helpful Sharon!
I definitely love the brown hair! It really suits! I just remember you as a blond when you came up to KEPT CREATIONS as a teacher.
Give me alllllll the sparkly bits whenever I'm doing art!!!
Can you drop the alcohol on the plate just like you did but spray isopropyl alcohol on it to get the colors to blend? I was just wondering if the isopropyl alcohol would hurt the gel plate.
Hello Carolyn,
You have inspired me, to use my alcohol inks, in this fashion.
I truly love the end result and the effect, it creates.
Thank you.
The burning question is:
Please could you tell me what a Gel Plate is?
This is the 1day time, that I have the mention of such an art accessory.
Thank you.
Regards Vinnie
Would this work on fabric instead of paper? Love this look!
Thank you, Carolyn. Enjoy your lessons. The alcohol ink doesn't stain the gel plate?
Are you using a soft brayer and what kind of white paint please
Gotta try this.....
Can't wait to see your prints Mellen!
Gorgeous! I thought I had to use hand-sanitizer with alcohol inks. (Much prefer the defined look and your dreamy variation to the blurred hand-sanitizer look.) This would be gorgeous through a stencil too! Thanks for the inspiration.
There are musts or have tos when it comes to a gel plate-lots of ways to use them!
I'm all about the bling.
This turned out fantastic. I would never think to use alcohol inks on a Gelli plate! Quick question for you-- why does it say Christine on your shelf in the background?
I love the rainbow sparkle. I haven’t thought about trying them on my gel plate. What would happen to the gel plate if you added rubbing alcohol to help move it along?? Would it ruin the gel plate?
I've used rubbing alcohol on mine many times and it hasn't hurt them Lisa.
Such a fun technique!! Will alcohol inks damage my gel plate? Thanks!!
no you also pull a majority of it off you can clean it off after if you want
Not fond of the word mistakes......perhaps happy accident! Love this!! Thank you
i like the first /Carinaschembri//Sweden
Do you dilute your ink
Nope, I don't Joyce.
Lots of sparkle, that’s me.
I love rainbows too.
hmm. Yeah, that is weird about the "Solar flare". ;) but it's ok. =)
Sparkle .... depends on how "Messy it is"... if it's glitter.... I tend to shy away from it... but if it's shiny stuff that isn't gonna get everywhere..... I love it, and tend to add lots. =)
Those are beautiful pages. =) I think I prefer the more defined drops.... but then again... it depends on what I'd be using it for.... I prefer the dreamy one for a background... but if it were turned into a sundress, or something like that.... I'd prefer the more defined dots.... in other words... I love them both for different reasons. =)
What fun patterns these would be on a dress Phoebe! If only I could sew lol!
*LOL!* I can't sew either. I can't even get a button to stay on. ;)
They'd make great Figments of imagination critters. =) (I just love that stencil, hopefully one day I'll be able to get that one, and a few others)
