I declare at this time, you need never express your comfort level regarding color choices. I absolutely LOVED every single one of your pulls. There were a few times I thought your next choice of color was w-r-o-n-g and I WAS PROVED WRONG EVERY TIME!!!!!!! I believe you have an inate talent for color choice and I bow before you!
Hi Jamie. Thank you so much for your encouraging comment! I had to go back and watch this video myself to remember what I had done. I do love experimenting especially when the results are happy accidents. 🥰
I agree completely with Jamie and her comments on your colors. Great video! Thank you so much for sharing your talent, techniques and absolutely beautiful colors and results.
I’ve ordered stencils, extremely cheaply, from Temu… I know the app is controversial, but for those of us on a very limited budget, it really helped me be able to get lots (probably 100?) of stencils for what 2-3 from a store or even Amazon would’ve cost
OH! MY! GOODNESS!!! Sherri, every single print you make is magical!!! I have watched a LOT of other channels on printmaking and by FAR yours is the BEST!!! Thank you :)
I just got a gelli plate for Christmas and was looking for ideas and came across your video. What a great idea making your own stencils/templates using a glue gun. I learned quite a bit from watching this video …..thank you!
This video is going in my save file. Thank you for taking us through your explorations with glue gun and gel plate, what a wonderful share. I will be able to refer back to your video as I am definitely going to have a go. I loved all those shimmering colours I think you actually have quite an eye for colour. Thank you for sharing this, love it, love it, love it!
Thank you! Yes I agree and know how you feel. It does feel more authentic and expressive to use your own work. I feel the same way about creating my own papers and digital collage. 🥰
My RUclips feed sent me your video and I am sooo happy! ❤ Thank you for creating and sharing. I just bought 2 gel plates I purchased on ebay. I was supposed to get one like I ready had. The gal had sold it and sent me 2 ~ a thinner 8 x 12 one and one with hearts all over!! I have old acrylic paints and brayers - I can't wait to play!! Thank you again!!!
Gorgeous papers...I like to add acrylic inks to my acrylic paints on the plate, creates some beautiful effects, however, I can't wait to incorporate metallics after watching you create.
Just beautiful. Gonna try with some wet strength tissue paper as well as rice paper. Goal will be to cut each & use as card fronts. Thanks for your demo of so many beautiful color combos!
Really great video! I’m still learning about how the colors work when layered so seeing what you used and then the results is especially helpful. Thank you!
Sherri: I love your creativity in using hot glue for organic shapes. I also incorporate glue on my painting and when I typed it in the search box I got your video! Thanks you!
This video has shown me some methods and techniques that I have never seen exactly that way and I really like your results! This has given me a lot of ideas to try and even share with others! So, thank-you for the great video! I am going to try some of these ideas today!
Thank you! I'm glad you have found some new inspiration. You'll have to check out my stencil making series as well: ruclips.net/p/PLLZLDkP8ZTq3bcQLnOVJ-NrfjYCPhP4PA 🥰
This is amongst the best gel plate printing videos I have seen. The glue gun stencils and masks are fantastic, love the way you put the colours together. Gorgeous prints I wish you lived near me so we could have a printing session together. Thank you for your time 🥰🙏💐
Sherri, absolutely flabbergasted by the work you pulled! I see backgrounds, I see inspiration. This is a save vid. I lost my way with gelli printing I hope this pulls me into that realm of experimentation again. Thank you ! 46: 46:50
@@darlenegreen1089 The color I think you're referring to was not added to the glue. It's just a result once you use them on your gel plate with paint. They were glue stick color until I used them. Thanks for watching! 🥰
Hi Danielle. Thank you! I hope you'll check out my series on stencil making. There are two playlists, Stencil Making 101 for a deep dive into the basics and then Stencil Making 2.0 using different software to create designs. Then I hope to do some gel printing videos as well. 🥰
Love gelli prints and have used them in many of my collages. The glue gun stencils have great appeal. Your tutorial was excellent and i learned lots. Thank you.
I think you said you weren’t very good or didn’t know enough about color combinations and stuff like that and I just got to tell you I love what you’re doing. I love the effects you’re getting on it. Think you are wonderful! And I’m an art teacher lol.
Hi Judy. Thanks for watching and for your comment. I figured as much....I had bought my Speedball brayer years ago to get the bubbles out when collaging so that's all I had used it for. It's in pretty rough shape from not cleaning it so I have a set of other brayers for printing. 🥰
@@heartandsoulfuldesign The metal surface really isn’t easy to clean, so I don’t worry about it. Whatever residue there is normally dries. I use it for my mono printing and it never smears the back of the paper. Thanks for your video!
You are very good at gelli printing, Sherri! I've tried it a few times but without success. This looks very contemporary, which seems like a different direction for you. I like it.
Thank you Genaveve. Yes I like trying lots of different styles. I guess I've always been a bit eclectic. I hope you'll keep trying. It's lots of fun and very addictive and forgiving. You can always just keep adding layers until you get something you're happy with. You'll have to check my video with my tip for when you think you don't like your prints. ruclips.net/video/ORm3RKfO8uI/видео.html 🥰
I love your color choices and wonder if those are the same colors you wear? My skin, hair, and eye color make me a "spring," and I wear all of those same colors. I think you could use a hair dryer instead of a heat gun. Maybe not as quick but much safer. You can flatten the glue masks by putting them between parchment paper and ironing them.
Thank you. On a daily basis around the house I wear neutrals. However, I have an entire section of my closet with more colorful tops with lots of embroidery in these types of colors. I have had others recommend a hair dryer as well. I've continued to used my heat gun because it's always plugged in at my work table. I've never had an issue with it....maybe mine just doesn't get very hot or maybe it's because I keep it at a distance and keep it moving but I've never had any issues with using it. I love the idea to flatten the masks and will definitely try that. Thank you for the tip. ❤️
I was just your 1000 th like. I have never seen that before. I love your work. I am new to gel printing but you have given me some great ideas. Thanks. xxx
I love what you did. I have made these hot glue stencils in the past. Just made my first gelliplate and hope to be able to use it end of the day but will start with oxide inks.
Thank you. I love that you made your own gel plate. I bought the ingredients but haven't tried making my own yet. I also have not tried using oxide inks on my gel plate so I'll have to remember that next time I play with it. 🥰
Dot from Derbyshire UK Thank for this video, it's one of the best I've ever seen. I loved the hot glue stencils, and your color combination is exquisite. I'm glad I found you and I look forward to viewing your other videos. Lots of love from the UK, Dot x.
#replay beautiful outcome! btw, a heat gun definitely wouldn't be recommended and will quickly ruin homemade gel plates even from a distance but a hairdryer on "cool" (most have a button or setting for this) is safe and will never damage your plate.
Thank you! And thank you for sharing your advice about homemade gel plates and heat guns. I use mine all the time (at a distance and constantly moving) with my commercial gel plates and have never had any issues...but maybe my heat gun isn't very hot. ☺️
You are amazing ❤!! Your glue gun stencils and gel plate prints are so cool😂!! Are you an artist? I've been doing this for years and I can't do what you did!! Thank you for sharing!! 😊❤
Will definitely be trying some glue stencils like these. And did you know that if you create a texture on your brayer by going over your stencils/masks/texture items while you’ve got wet paint on your brayer, you can transfer the texture & paint further down your gel plate or onto some roll off paper. Although if you do it on paper, make sure you’ve got a few folded sheets underneath your roll off sheet to get the best transfer 😊
Hi Allison. Thank you and yes I have done that with my brayer. I just love playing with my gel plates and trying out different ways to transfer. There's so much to learn. I'm just about to upload a long introduction to a new in depth series on making stencils. Another rabbit hole I've fallen down...😆
Just came across your channel, I really enjoyed your video. I am a gel plate printer too and I'm always experimenting with color - trial and error but so much fun. Thanks for sharing.
I love this idea and the prints you made. I feel inspired to get up out of bed and burn through a couple of glue sticks! I have some ideas for Easter themed stencils.
Thank you so much Sherri, I really really enjoyed watching you create all these wonderful and amazing papers with the gelliplate and your mask/stencils from the glue gun. I really really love ❤❤❤❤ them all, I’ve subscribed and given you a thumbs up too.
Thank you so much and Welcome! I hope you'll check out my two playlists Stencil Making 101 and Stencil Making 2.0 which I think you'll enjoy as well. I also just finished a little series on coffee staining papers with 5 new videos. Enjoy! ❤️
Thank you so much! I haven't posted a new video in awhile. I've been making more stencils and playing with the gel plate so I hope to have more to show soon. 🥰
Thanks for sharing.. a tip for 41:44 for example... if you want to pull that paint causing a white spot , don't pull the paper from the plate any further: put some acrylic medium onto that paint with a brush or your fingers, put back the paper and leave to settle it onto the paper just as with a normal print .. it will fill the white gap.
Hi Arabella. The color I think you're referring to was not added to the glue gun. It's just a result once you use them on your gel plate. They were glue stick color until I used them. Thanks for watching! 🥰
Im not rven halfway through and your prints are fabulous, im just learning and your video is fantastic. I love you shared your hot glue stencils!!! I'm thrilled! ❤ I also love metallics. But that iridescent medium is an eye opener,! Thank you so much really enjoying this and how you explain. New sub! I love doing these too. So much fun. Yours are beautiful 🙌
Thx for sharing your process! I wanted to suggest using an old hairdryer that has a cold setting for quick drying your Gelli plate. That way there’s no worries about the heat from your embossing gun ruining your mat or Gelli plate. 😅.
Thank you for watching. So far I haven't had any problems with my heat gun and this may sound weird but it would have to be a hair dryer no louder than my heat gun or it would drive me crazy. 😆
You are so welcome! I'm glad you enjoyed it. I hope you'll check out my Stencil Making 101 and Stencil Making 2.0 playlists. They are best watched in order but have tons of information if you are new to making your own stencils. 🥰
Brilliant 👍🏼I need to try this. It might be more successful than my cricut attempts to make a stencil. Would you make a tutorial for cricut stencil making?
Hi Abbie. Thank you. You'll be happy to hear I already have a series on stencil making. Here's a link to the first series which covers all the basics and using Cricut to make repeating pattern stencils: ruclips.net/p/PLLZLDkP8ZTq3bcQLnOVJ-NrfjYCPhP4PA I have a second series that I'm in the middle of called Stencil Making 2.0 where I go into other types of stencils and using other software to create the designs that I then cut with my Cricut as well. I hope this will be useful for you. 🥰
Rich dazzling colors and patterns! Do you let each layer of paint dry before you add a different color, ie to avoid mud? So inspiring, I hope to follow your video step by step. Thank you!
Thank you for watching! Yes, I let each layer of paint dry in between. I'm currently working on a French journal series but hope to do some gel print videos in the coming weeks. 🥰
Thank you! I've added a link in the description now as well but here's a link to them on Amazon: amzn.to/3N3RGNY. In this video I used Liquitex Basic Acrylics in a variety of colors. This link is for a set of 48 colors so you can try them all if it's in your budget or would be something nice to add to your Christmas Wish List. You can always purchase your favorite colors individually on Amazon or any store selling art supplies including Michael's and Walmart if you're in the US. ❤️
I wouldn't call this two sided or maybe you mean double sided rice paper. What I meant as that rice paper rather than being the same on both sides, it has one smooth side and one more rough side. I like to print on the smooth side but that's just my preference. I'm not sure about the link I put in the description, but here's one I've purchased on Amazon and it says it's available. amzn.to/4bBzCEq. Thank you for watching.
Hi Simi! I hope you check out my recent series on Stencil Making. Start with Stencil Making 101 and then I'm still working on the series Stencil Making 2.0. 🥰
I have a couple of fun videos that you might like in my Gel Plate Printing playlist: studio.ruclips.net/user/playlistPLLZLDkP8ZTq05aBxe7Rh3-WO1un71ybk9/videos I make them with the intent of doing mix media collage but haven't done much of that yet. Doesn't really matter as I have so much fun just making the prints. I have an Etsy Shop and Shopify Store and always send out thank you card with my orders. My goal one of these days is to use my gel prints to make the thank you cards I send out. 😉

Black Flash and Black and White are perfect!!!!!
Thank you for all the great info. The tool you use to rub is called a baron. Why are your pages shiny? Is it the light or the paper?

I love the black flash and want to try the iridescent gel medium. Thanks.
Thank you for your comment. I've been hooked lately on the metallics and adding the iridescent gel to any color gives me that same sort of sparkle. ❤️
Nice! I especially like the last two you did with the more natural colors. Your explanations were thorough which is SO helpful!
Thank you so much. Glad it was helpful! 🥰

@@heartandsoulfuldesign lol, I resemble that comment 😂
Thanks for sharing.. a tip for 41:44 for example... if you want to pull that paint causing a white spot , don't pull the paper from the plate any further: put some acrylic medium onto that paint with a brush or your fingers, put back the paper and leave to settle it onto the paper just as with a normal print .. it will fill the white gap.
Thank you for the tip. 🥰
Thank you for sharing! You are smart and talented and inspired us with a new idea!
Thank you! 😊
Outstanding. Beautiful. I will be trying the glue gun stencils on my gel pad. You are an excellent teacher. Thank you
Thank you so much. I'm glad you enjoyed it. Have fun! 🥰
These are gorgeous!
Thank you. 😊
Love these. Definitely will try making the hot glue stencils. Thanks for sharing.
You are so welcome! Thank you for watching and leaving a comment. Have fun creating! 🥰
Time to get out my gelli plate again!! So fun!!
Yes it is! Give yourself plenty of playtime because it's really addictive once you get going you won't want to stop. 🥰
Thank you so much! I love this new craft - excited to get started.
You are very welcome! Thanks for watching. You will have so much fun! 🥰
My gosh, those are gorgeous papers and I’m going for the glue gun asap! Thanks so very much.
Thank you! Happy Creating! ❤️🥰
Thanks You too! ❤@@heartandsoulfuldesign
This is really cool. Making me want to get my gelli plate out. 💕
Oh you should! It's so much fun. 🥰
Nice stencils you made and nice prints from them!
Thanks so much 😊
Absolutely gorgeous!
Thank you! 😊
How did you add color to glue gun. Love this idea.
Hi Arabella. The color I think you're referring to was not added to the glue gun. It's just a result once you use them on your gel plate. They were glue stick color until I used them. Thanks for watching! 🥰
Im not rven halfway through and your prints are fabulous, im just learning and your video is fantastic. I love you shared your hot glue stencils!!! I'm thrilled! ❤ I also love metallics. But that iridescent medium is an eye opener,! Thank you so much really enjoying this and how you explain. New sub! I love doing these too. So much fun. Yours are beautiful 🙌
Thank you so much! I'm hoping to do more videos like this soon. 🥰
@@heartandsoulfuldesign 💕❤️🙌
fantastic...lots of great ideas...thank you.
Thanks for watching!
Awesome! 💖💖💖💖💖💖 Love it! Thanks for the inspiration!
Thank you for watching Margaret. I appreciate your comment and am happy you've been inspired! 🥰
Thx for sharing your process! I wanted to suggest using an old hairdryer that has a cold setting for quick drying your Gelli plate. That way there’s no worries about the heat from your embossing gun ruining your mat or Gelli plate. 😅.
Thank you for watching. So far I haven't had any problems with my heat gun and this may sound weird but it would have to be a hair dryer no louder than my heat gun or it would drive me crazy. 😆
So glad I found your very cool channel...
This is fantastic:)
Welcome! Thank you for watching and commenting 🥰
Thank you for an instructive video!!❤
You are so welcome! I'm glad you enjoyed it. I hope you'll check out my Stencil Making 101 and Stencil Making 2.0 playlists. They are best watched in order but have tons of information if you are new to making your own stencils. 🥰
Beautiful I love this idea. Thank you 💖💖💖
Hi Rhonda. Thank you for watching! 😊
Oh my goodness I loved this video and I have to follow you, thanks so much!
Thank you. I'm ready to play with my gel plate again...it's been awhile. ☺️
Brilliant 👍🏼I need to try this. It might be more successful than my cricut attempts to make a stencil. Would you make a tutorial for cricut stencil making?
Hi Abbie. Thank you. You'll be happy to hear I already have a series on stencil making. Here's a link to the first series which covers all the basics and using Cricut to make repeating pattern stencils: ruclips.net/p/PLLZLDkP8ZTq3bcQLnOVJ-NrfjYCPhP4PA
I have a second series that I'm in the middle of called Stencil Making 2.0 where I go into other types of stencils and using other software to create the designs that I then cut with my Cricut as well. I hope this will be useful for you. 🥰
Rich dazzling colors and patterns! Do you let each layer of paint dry before you add a different color, ie to avoid mud? So inspiring, I hope to follow your video step by step. Thank you!
Thank you for watching! Yes, I let each layer of paint dry in between. I'm currently working on a French journal series but hope to do some gel print videos in the coming weeks. 🥰
Love your work and I am trying to get some of the items you are using. Could you please add link or name to all the paints too? Thank you 🙂
Thank you! I've added a link in the description now as well but here's a link to them on Amazon: amzn.to/3N3RGNY. In this video I used Liquitex Basic Acrylics in a variety of colors. This link is for a set of 48 colors so you can try them all if it's in your budget or would be something nice to add to your Christmas Wish List. You can always purchase your favorite colors individually on Amazon or any store selling art supplies including Michael's and Walmart if you're in the US. ❤️
It took me 11 months to find you and this video, I am one happy person 🎊 🎉
Oh my! Welcome and Thank you for finding me. I'm glad you found this useful. 🥰
Where can I get the two sided rice paper? The link you included to Amazon says it is not available. Thanks and I love your video...very informative.
I wouldn't call this two sided or maybe you mean double sided rice paper. What I meant as that rice paper rather than being the same on both sides, it has one smooth side and one more rough side. I like to print on the smooth side but that's just my preference. I'm not sure about the link I put in the description, but here's one I've purchased on Amazon and it says it's available. amzn.to/4bBzCEq. Thank you for watching.
Great ideas.... Where did you get the tool you use to rub the paper with that your printing on ? Thx 🙌
Thank you. There is a list of materials in the description. That tool is a baren and here is the link: Speedball Block Printing Baren: amzn.to/3j6SztF
incredible I was thinking about how to make my own stencil
Hi Simi! I hope you check out my recent series on Stencil Making. Start with Stencil Making 101 and then I'm still working on the series Stencil Making 2.0. 🥰
I am wondering what do you do with your geli prints after you are done with them?
I have a couple of fun videos that you might like in my Gel Plate Printing playlist: studio.ruclips.net/user/playlistPLLZLDkP8ZTq05aBxe7Rh3-WO1un71ybk9/videos
I make them with the intent of doing mix media collage but haven't done much of that yet. Doesn't really matter as I have so much fun just making the prints. I have an Etsy Shop and Shopify Store and always send out thank you card with my orders. My goal one of these days is to use my gel prints to make the thank you cards I send out. 😉
So fun to watch! Who was the beatiful music by?
Thank you Denise. Sorry I forgot to put the music attribution. It's from Bensounds but I can't remember which song exactly...🥰
