    Yes! I love how much you can do with them. Lots of chances to just play around and try different things. I love the surprise I get when I peel off the paper. Reminds me to leave things to chance sometimes.

    Love your aesthetic and your simple organized way of doing this. Just what I needed today to get me inspired to make some more collage fodder. Also going to get some of those squeeze bottles for mixing paints. Thanks for being here!

    one thing Ilike about the dried paint on my plate is that it will lift up when you lay down new paint.. gives really interesting tectures. I have kind of dirty plate which is cool I just have to remember to keep my BRAYER clean.. that is a pain to remove layers of paint... I used baby wipes.

    Loved it!! I put off getting a gelli plate for 2 yrs and my sister got me one for my birthday. I played with that for over a month straight. I love the old vintage look. I also tried alcohol inks on it and that was amazing. Thank you

    Nice video and prints Just an FYI. The acetate sheets are only for shopping the gel plates. thet should be removed and can be used as a palette or for DIY stencils. Taking the plate off the acetate will keep it from sliding around. I keep a $1 store kitty litter pan of water with a splash of Murphys oil soap in it. I toss stencils, stamps, brayers and even gel plates in for easy clean up later.😊

    Perhaps a sheet of paoer under the plate would work better.

    You are not supposed to keep your gel plate on the shipping plastic while using. The plate should be removed from the clamshell and acetate sheet and placed on paper or something on your desktop. Sorry but this is just uncomfortable to watch when you are brayering over stencils.
