A Controversial Art Journaling Decision
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 8 сен 2024
- In today's play we'll be using a gel plate to do speedy stenciling (and it creates an irregular, organic element) as this art journal comes together. What is the controversial decision I made? It has to do with my stance on covering up layers. Check out the full blog post at acolorfuljourn...
Stencil-rific Layers is all about how stencils work on a gel plate. It's not magic or random luck getting prints you love and any anyone, including you, can make prints like these when you understand how stencils interact with paint and color on a gel plate. You can check out all the details about the workshop at acolorfuljourn...

Want to play? Want to know specific ways to let go and have fun? Join the fun in my free mixed media workshop Permission to Play acolorfuljourn...
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 RUclips 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”.

1:03 love that way of using the gel plate - brilliant!
Glad that it was helpful! Impatient me loves how fast it makes stenciling!
Very good video, learned a lot. Love the stencil and gel plate idea. Thank you Carolyn!
The tip about the ovals is genius; thank you!😊
I'd love to tell you that I totally planned that when I designed that stencil but nope. I stumbled into it while playing. Glad it was helpful!
Caroyn, your videos are always so inspiring. Your demeanor and voice go right along with that inspiration. I so love your use of colors. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks so much Veronica! So glad you enjoy the colorful play!
Your videos make me so happy! 😊❤
And that makes me happy! Glad you enjoy them!
I enjoyed that enormously! Thank you, Carolyn. I loved your use of the gel plate and the stencils. I often forget to be more courageous in my use of stencils....they don't always have to be the "right side up". This was fun and I got some much needed inspiration! Love and Bless xo
So happy that you had such fun and hope you have fun flipping your stencils!
Neat! 😃👍🏼
I personally have trouble covering layers up - if I like them.... But Sometimes you just have to do it , for the good of the project/page. Your page came out great! ☺👍🏼
It can be so tough when there's a loved layer Phoebe!
🙃Yeah!!!😉
I love how this page turned out, but I have to admit I would find it very hard to paint that white over the beautiful background you created. I would definitely call that "courageous"! ❤😍🥰
Whenever I see a new video from you, I immediately know it’s going to be a great day - wonderful ideas, thank you
You've just made my day a great day! Thank you!
I'm from Germany and love your vids! Have been watching them for 4 years! Starting when I was 15.
Ummm now why haven’t I thought to use my gel plate as a stamp
pad? Thanks for the inspiration!
I just found you yesterday. You are an amazing quick fix artist. Tfs😊
I agree with you about the process of layering, but I really loved the background you made!!!
It's so fun to watch you work, especially because you don't plan...like me. I'm part of both controversial camps....I have a hard time covering up my work sometimes, but other times, it's nice to keep it just in my memory, and highlight only parts of a piece.
Sounds like you get the best of both camps!
I just found your page. I LOVE IT ! ❤️ Thank you
Welcome! Glad you're here!
I usually find good deals on paintbrushes at my local Ross Dress for Less store. I too only buy inexpensive paintbrushes.
Your videos are alway sfull of cheer and due to the season - good tidings. Peeking beneath the surface is a sense mystery.
Good tidings to you too!
I always love your ideas!
Thanks! Glad you enjoy the play!
Much nicer with the colour showing 👩🏻🎨
Color is a good thing in my world!
What a great page thanks for posting. Btw is geli arts still postings?
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it! Don't know about Gelli Arts- if I did, would happily tell you.
LOVE it! :D
Thanks Bev!
Brilliant
Love
"It’s a trigger for some" is the phrase you used to open your blog post about this. please don't use this language lightly. every time someone makes a stupid joke about "triggers" it makes it harder for survivors and people with mental illness to use this word for it's legitimate reason. please be respectful of the disabled and survivors in the art community.
Thanks for letting me know.
Well said!
@@CarolynDube thank you so much for updating the post. it’s kind of you to care :)
