- Hello!!!
First I apologize for the eco from the table on the video. I hope this is the last video that will be filled that way.
Michelle here from the Creative Cove thanks for joining me today. Today’s tutorial is just a fun video using stamps. Designing and creating your own papers. Making ready to use ephemera and getting your hands dirty with a little paint. It’ nothing new it’s been done before but this is my take on it.
I really like creating these little images that looks almost like an x-ray there a bit on the grungy side so they’re not for everyone but I feel like they add just a little extra something interesting to a journal. Let me know what you think.
I hope you enjoy the video. I hope it gives you some inspiration to get your hands dirty, and have fun with what you have on hand, thinking outside the box when it comes to creating with tools that you have in your repertoire.
Happy Creating!

I really liked the business card paper ideas!!!
Love it!!! I don’t think there is a video I have watched of yours that I didn’t like! Thanks for the inspiration!!!
Wow, thank you!😊
I’ve watched literally hundreds & possibly thousands of Gelli printing videos & quite a number of those where the printed pages are smaller than the gel plate, yet you’re literally the first I’ve seen actually use paper to create a frame using the excess around the smaller piece 😱 So simple, yet so intelligent & practical 🤦♀️ Can’t believe no one else has ever done that deliberately lol.
I'm binge watching you today, dear Michele!😂 I have been an avid gelli plate artist for a decade now. When you lay the paint down with the brayer, instead of rubbing hard and pressing hard, with a back and forth motion, try a lighter approach. Instead, lay the paint down without pressing hard, rolling in one direction, and then picking up the Brayer at the end of the plate. Do this quick motion again and again... this will deposit the paint lightly onto your gelli plate with an even coat. Hope that makes sense?🤔
Hi Michele - you are a Monday morning treat - tfs 👵🏻🎨🤗👍🌿
Lol thank you 😊
Love that you're sharing ideas and processes and not pushing products we should rush out and buy!
I get the idea. Way to,go. Thanks for the ideas. I’ll be sure to,try . 😊
Thank you for giving us another great ideas, Michele! I don't have gelli plate. But now I'm thinking making one of those DIYs using agar agar ☺️
Most interesting possibilities! Thanks for sharing!
j adore, j adore, i love it love it, thank you very much
Very informative, thankyou!!! Going to try some of these techniques!! Yay!!
Great video 👏 very inspiring 😍 lots of love from Arctic Norway 🥰🏵️🌸🌺🌼
You,ll love the gelli plate, so much you can do. I bought one a few months ago. Just showed the girls in the art group how to mono print plant material. I’m amazed by the how you can get like 3 prints on one idea ….Have fun,
This was FANTASTIC! Thank you soooo much 😅
You're so welcome! Thanks for watching 😊
That table! 😂
Enjoyed this, thank you for sharing.
Just found you today and I love you channel. Can’t wait to try some of the things you have made.
I love everything you do, and I love the fact that you do so many different things. You are one of the reasons that I picked up a watercolor brush and started painting again. Thank you so much for all you do.❤
I'm so glad! Thank you 🙏
Michele, thank you for this video! I love your creativity. I'm halfway through watching it, but today is a busy morning for me so I wanted to pause the video to send you this message. I don't want to forget to say thank you! :)
Thank you 😊
Love everything you created! There's so many things that can be created with the gelli plate and it is so much fun! Thank you so much for the inspiration and for sharing, take care x
Thank you so much!
Thank you so much! I also like to be messy and find it less stressful. Looks fantastic.
It really is! Lol. Thank you 😊
Sensational video!! Thanks for all the great info.
Glad you enjoyed it! 😊
Thank you so much Michelle, I really really enjoyed watching you creating all these amazing things. I really really love ❤️ them all. Please stay safe and well too xxx Mags ❤❤❤❤
Thank you so much 😊
Thank you Michelle! I love everything you do, you say you don't know what you are doing but everything looks great. I love you going to the thrift store to look for labels and business cards. Ever since you started sketching on them, I got hooked. I like color so I would probably stamp with colored ink.
Thank you so much! 😊
Ok I want a jelly plate now lol. I have been curious about how to use them but never checked it out. Glad your video came up as a suggestion. New subbie and love the video❤
I just put my paints and geli plate away. Now I have to drag it all out again. Thanks!
😂 sorry lol
suggerstion, put a damp cloth under jelli plate so that it doesn't slip around...love this video thanks
Love the X-rays. I’m definitely a dirty, messy crafter. If I had that sweater on , the sleeves would be covered in paint and ink. When I paint furniture, it usually ends up in my hair and on my shoes as well. Can’t garden in gloves either. ❤❤❤❤❤tyfs
Lol. I love that there are so many of us out there that are messy lol
I love making gel prints with lots and lots of layers. I found myself an old glass cutting board and I stick a piece of paper (the same size as the pages I’m using for my prints) to the underside of the glass. This does two things 1) the glass anchors the plate so it doesn’t slide around but also makes it portable if I need to move it while there is wet paint on it 2) it shows me where the borders of my page will be and then I don’t roll out too much paint, which I love because I’m cheap and it saves a bit of money
That’s a great idea. Thank you😊
I use a glass cutting board too, old glass placemats work well too. Great for using a part of as an easy clean paint palette as well, particularly if you’re sponging on some paint.
This was great. Thanks for all the great ideas. Two suggestions - I keep a container of water under my work table when I am using paint on stamps or stencils and drop them in as I create this keeps the paint from drying and helps with fast clean up. Second for those glossy labels give them a coat of clear gesso and they will take your paint. If I didn't have clear I would try white on one sheet to see if It works. If you need a recipe for homemade white gesso let me know. Peg from Two Old Crows had one on one of her videos. I made it and it is great and cheap to make. TFS. 🥰🙏
I would love to have this recipe. Could you please supply the link to her channel. Thanks 🐨🦘🐨
@@joannegarvin9338 I don't know how to cut and paste, but if you go to you tube type in two Old Crows. When I am in my craft room later tonight, I will type the recipe out for you.
Please don't use your craft time on me lol. I'll type in Two Old Crows. Thanks kindly
That’s awesome thank you for all the great tips!! I’ll check it out! 😊
@@joannegarvin9338My pleasure to share this with you! Peg used 1 cup of baby powder, 1/4 cup of Elmer's glue, 1/4 cup of white acrylic psint
I love your thriftiness! I see labels at thrift shop, but had not thought to buy them for use in projects like this. Thanks for the idea!
A few thoughts:
1. If you place a rubbery craft mat under your Gelli plate it won’t slide around when you’re trying to roll out paint or pull prints. I love this method!
2. I enjoy hearing your thoughts about what you’re doing and why, but the banging is really tough to endure. Could you cover your table with something to lessen the banging sound? I’m not trying to be critical, just giving honest feedback.
3. It looks like you’re using felt applicators to apply the ink, which results in a less smooth application (like when the green ink went on heavily). The foam applicators work really well for applying ink and might be worth trying.
Thanks again for sharing your techniques - I enjoyed watching!
on the table, ........see last comment xxxxx LOVE LOVE LOVE YOUR WORK
I’m messy too so I can appreciate your art work. Loved your video thanks for sharing
Thanks so much 😊
Thank you for sharing todays projects. . Love your artwork and creativity . I am a messy crafter. Always was. Nothing is organized. I think I spend more time looking for what I need then the actual crafting project. Lol. I do clean at times, only to mess my table up again in a couple hours. 🤣
I hear ya! Lol😊
Think about joining in on CarveDecember. I'm gonna do it again this year. Get some Speedy Carve. I love these. So much fun, so free and loose, and the investment in supplies can't be beat.
❤❤❤
🤩🤩🤩
Lovely work ❤😊
Great ideas! I’m going to have to try the Avery card one, such a time saver ❤ thank you
Great fun
Thanks 😊
Adore your videos.. the most inspiring artist on RUclips I visit you everyday... do you have a video on how you coffee dye your papers? I cannot find one of yours... Yours are so natural looking...thank you so much...
Thank you very much for sharing, kisses from France !
Merci! 😊
I just love watching you create....I glean so much inspiration from your videos! I am curious as to why the stamping on the clear labels didn't smear. I'd have reached for my StazOn ink pad, but yours didn't smear at all.
Fantastic thankyou your so amazing....from UK😊
Thank you. Cheers!
What fun!! Loved it!!❤❤
Glad you liked it!! Thank you 😊
I lay my gel plates on a large piece of glass that I use as a palette the rest of the time. Putting it on heavy glass means it doesn’t move when you are trying to rub down the paper and take a pull. It’s also essential if you want to do multiple layers where you need to line up the previous pull with the next one.
How do you get your hands clean? Lol. I never find any labels at thrift store but will look at the dollar store. Using labels something I haven't tried before . I'd like to see how these get used on a journal page now. This was a great gelli plate lesson and I feel like I need to experiment more now.
My hands always have paint on them. That’s why I never paint my nails. 😂 the thrift shop is a hit and miss for me. But usually the dollar store has a few options 😊
What kind of paper are you using here ?
It’s plane heavy weight coffee died paper. I buy it at staples. It’s a type of card stock. 😊
Wáááw … great !!
can you tell me what paper you are using, it almost seems like watercolor or blotter paper. thanks
Is your sweater sleeve still white 😮😊
P.S. I love that Brushed Sage color and have added it to my must get list. LOL
Lol. Thank you 😊
What on earth is that echo in the background? I was wanting to watch this video but that noise is a deal breaker. You may want to investigate what's happening and fix it.
I just subscribed. Thank you for “just playing”. I get that. I use my big acrylic block to faux gel print with inks but may have to give in and get a gel plate and a couple of acrylic paints. This would add some dimension to my channel. Blessings! @theresaconway-hayes
Beautiful! I just love your carved stamps and all the different ways you have discovered for using them.
Also… sometimes I find that I like the papers that I used to clean off my brayer more than the stuff I was actively working on! 😂
Same here. It happens more often then I’d like to admit. 😂
The clean up pages usually turn out great, which goes to show how easily art can be created when you don’t try.
