When I tried printing I used a sheet of glass from an old picture frame (I taped the edges so I wouldn't cut myself and laid it on an old towel so it wouldn't move). I used cheap fluid craft paint and it worked a treat. Had fun and it didn't cost me anything more than paper and a length of tape. I also made a homemade gelli plate but it started to mold. I found several recipies but none gave volume amounts rather than saying a packet of X brand, in Europe we often don't have the same brands. I think I used too little glycerin at one stage and I don't have a clue why my second attempt started to mould. I found the glass much easier and I cleaned it off and fixed the frame when I was done. Still usable in the future. I think alternatives to branded products make us braver to try new techniques to see if we would like them rather than risking a big investment. Thanks for the inspiration.
So glad it worked for you! and I totally agree...trying things without the "name brand" product forces us to be more creative...
Just love the way you wipe the excess paint onto a piece of paper and say it's so it's not wasted. I've seen So many tutorials where they throw the paint away.
You are a good teacher. Thanks.
Thanks so much 😊
Really wonderful ideas and inspiration here. It does become overwhelming and ridiculously expensive to try to buy all the art supplies I think I need to have. I prefer your approach here, almost like a challenge to myself, to find alternative methods to create art without buying so much. Thanks!
I agree! Thanks For Watching!
I have a pack of those flexible cutting mats that are used in the kitchen and have dedicated one of them to use as an alternative to a gelli plate. So far---works pretty well. Thanks for your great idea, b/c I also love the thought of "crafting" substitutes.
You are welcome!
How do you clean the mat from acrylic paints/inks?
I too wonder how to clean mat.
Gina, you make it look so easy! Now I want to try it! Thank you for making this video!
Thanks!
I have a piece of the foam I take with me when I travel and don't want to take my gelli plate. I've also made several gelli plates. I recently made a round one and gave to my granddaughter. She was thrilled. If you use the glycerin it doesn't go bad.
I love mono printing!
I do too. Now I've hooked my granddaughter.
This is a perfect video. I want to have my students do mono printing, but I needed to do some research first since it's been so long since my mother was binge-ing this technique a few years ago. I'm so glad there is a much more cost effective method to use for a classroom setting, this is a great summary of some alternatives to the expensive gelli plates.
There are always options to most things. I think your students will have a lot of fun with this. Good luck!
shut up
Was going to leave a comment but I decided to go play with my paint instead. Very inspirational video. Um-wah!
oh good....
Thank you for showing me that there are alternatives to gel plates. I want one but it’s just not in the budget yet. Now can have printing fun while I wait. :)
You are more than welcome...
I've since made gelli plates very successfully on fun foam, I've also purchased a gelli plate. It's all fun.
GREAT!
I was interested to see this video. I dont have a gelli plate but I do want to make some prints.
+Crafty Crafter thanks for watching!
This is awesome! Thank you for sharing!
You are welcome....
Would it work any better on the craft foam if it were covered with perhaps some contact paper?
maybe...good idea!
Great ideas, thank you.
Ana Saupe you are welcome...
thanks for sharing Gina !
how about a Dollar Tree cutting mat (for cutting food)? You get 2 in a pack.
oooops, I meant, Chopping Mat.
Lol...I knew what you meant...I did not know about them when I filmed this video but they certainly would work.
Awesome tips, I enjoyed watching!
Awesome! Thank you!
Grocery bags give amazing textures
Great idea...
@@ginabahrens do you know who dan tirels is?
No but I will check him out....I love Yeates Makes though...
thanks for the info will try
Good Luck!
Yep..
Can you also do photo transfers on this kind of plate?
Although I havent done that I have art friend who have so I have to say yes....there are videos for it if you search.... "gelli plate photo transfer"
Could you use the plastic sheet that comes off the bacon when you buy it? I save them for paint pallets....but wondering if I can use them for gel printing?
Maybe....try it and share with us....
whats the name of plsate youre using
A piece of plastic packaging
Nice art
Thank You!
interesting!!
Thanks!
this is great - so the brayer - is it hard (solid) plastic or foam (squishy) or can it be either?
Hard rubber is best....
@@ginabahrens is there an alternative to a brayer? I'd like to do this for a ladies group craft. I can't buy 10 or 15 brayers.
@@taylors726 maybe a rolling pin or something from the dollar store?
@@ginabahrens , thank you!
Do u hav an update on alternatives for gelli plates 30 Aug 2023❤
No but a good idea for a future video
I can’t find a 16x20 gel plate so I am going to make a homemade one
Great idea
When you do a print, please show the whole thing to the viewer for more than a second so they can get a good look at it, instead of flipping it up partially and not showing the whole print and then moving on. Otherwise nice video and good alternative technique
Thank you
It is also possible to pause the video. I've found that works very well when I need to view something closely.
👍✌️🙏❤️
When the paint starts to dry, give a light mist of water...
Great idea!
If you first coat your plate with glycerin, it allows the paint to stay moist for much longer. It works well on a geli plate but have never tried on foam before.
@@lzrd8460 You have given me a way to help my paint or ink stay wet for long enough. Thank you.
Both didn't work to well at all. So far I haven't found an equal to a gelli plate. Good try though.
