Thank you for sharing our designs these are actually by Paulla Keen and Susan DuFresne ❤ looking forward to part 2. A plate that has bubbles and even pitting can be brought back. As some suggested use the tape to clear off any bits that are stubborn, then really saturate your plate both side with the mineral oil, store with paper on both sides and flat. Eventually the bubbles will work out. A clean plate is a preference but it will hold up longer and gives more detailed prints if that is a goal ❤ hugs P&M

I am a stencil addict. (is there a 12 step program for that?) and I do love the ones you show here. I do use stencils on my gel plate more than anything else, but I really LUV the yarn used as you show, and I must try that next time I work on the gel plate. Thanks for sharing, Jackie.

Hi Jackie, long time voyeur here. I find your curiosity, perfectly imperfect style and interactions with your kids very relatable. You also have a lovely voice. Combined these things make you one of my go-to relaxing artist to watch. One of my favourite things to use on my gelli plate is a bamboo sushi mat. Thanks for the calm and inspiration. Jenn. xo

Thanks as always for the great video. I find that a lot of my favorite prints come from putting a color on top of the ghost print and doing a pull. I usually get really nice pieces. I also love clearing my brayer on a piece of paper and using it later. Sometimes I do 2 or 3 colors on the same paper and then do a collage with them.

Wow that was a good clean, considering how dirty it started out. I soak my gel plate in warm soapy water every couple of times I use it. I usually soak it while I tidy up, then give it a very quick rub around in the water with my hands and then wrap it in a lint free cloth to dry and then put it away - takes no time at all.

Love your new papers and stencils, and the other everyday materials you use for the collaging. My fresh produce nets look so different and don't work as nicely as yours on my plate. I will try the yarn experiment next time I use my plate. Where is the link for the studio that makes the stencils? They're gorgeous!

I store my gelli plates between two pieces of non textured paper. A heavier paper like mixed media works best for me. I believe the packaging even says to do that. I had a problem with bubble marks on the plate before I started using paper. The marks did go away however, and as expensive as the plates have become I would not want to have to buy another!

I went back to it yesterday and one side is ruined as I hasn’t taken the wrap of one of the pieces! So now only one side is any good. What is the best way to store a gel plate? It was expensive and now I’m worried about ruining the other side too 😢

@jackieschomburgart

Жыл бұрын

Hi Pam! I’m not sure of the “proper” way to store it, but what I’m doing now is storing it with paper covering both sides of the plate and then the whole thing inside the clamshell case that it came in originally. I’ve removed the plastic-acetate sheets that it was originally packaged with since the air bubbles left some marks on my plate (those marks have since come off). So it’s still protected by the hard-ish case so it won’t get indentations from storage but the plate is surrounded by paper to keep it in tip-top condition 🤗
