Thank you Jennifer from the UK. I am 82 years old and just attempted my first gel experience based from your other video. You give me inspiration to keep going with these ideas. Your cards are beautiful.x
Please don't apologize for sharing more gel press videos I for one and LOVING these!!! I certainly hope that your not feeling well passed quickly!
Love your gel press videos and you don't have to stop making them for me. I say make what makes you happy, we'll love it no matter what. Be well.
Sorry about the bad day but I love the old shirt that has wonderful memories. You are so generous sharing your talent with us. I can’t tell you how many happy times I’ve spent watching your videos. That stamp really is different and I love it. I’ve been cleaning out an attic storage room, I think I deserve a reward. 😊
I love the gel press technique videos. I love using my gel press with stencils and distress oxide inks. Anything that can stretch my already owned products are so welcome. we all spend a lot of money to get enough stamps dies and inks to make the cards different. But sometimes we run out of steam using the same things over and over. These gel press techniques make them look totally different. Make more ‼️‼️
Thank you so much for using products we may already have. I have noticed a lot of card makers are doing this as well. It is much appreciated.
I love your gel press videos. Most people make a mixed media feel with gel press but you do it in a way that I feel is more my style. Thank you, i love your style.
I really love the bold stamp examples!! Who am I kidding, I love them all!!
Oh my goodness. These are fabulously awesome Jennifer. You are definitely an Expert with a Capital E. All a matter of perspective. Thanks a million for your continued innovation/inspiration that you gift all of us with. We are truly blessed to be in your midst 🙏🙏🙏
I'm so sorry you're having a bad day when a video from you makes our days so much better. I hope that your week gets better. Sending good vibes! Also, I would like to say I am so envious that shirts from high school still fit you! 😀😍
You are an amazing person, you were having a bad day but still took the time to make us another wonderful video. Hope you are having a better day now reading all these encouraging and kind comments. You have definitely made our days x
I finally bought a Gel Press...you can't stop doing videos using it now! 😂 Just kidding - do what you want, but if you make more, I'm just saying I'm here for them. 😉 This technique is BRILLIANT. Thank you! 😘 PS - I'm hanging out in a comfy sweatshirt. For basically the past year. 🤷♀️😂 I'm sorry you had a bad day. 💜
Sorry you are having a bad. BLESS YOUR HEART...it is so about time someone focused on crafters using what they already have instead of constantly selling us something else. KUDOS
I made my own stamping platform from a wooden base and built up popsicle sticks for the frame. I started out with a frame deep enough to accommodate thick cling rubber stamps. Now, because of this video, it's thick enough to accomodate the gel press. (In case you're wondering, I used a die cutting plate for the door and I based the final size on that and I used 1 1/2" utility hinges).
I love your reasoning for the frayed sleeves, though I don't think you should ever need to apologize for what you're wearing during a video :) I love all of your gel press videos, but for some reason THIS ONE made me actually drop everything to go buy a gel press and brayer. Thank you for sharing!

Beautiful cards Jennifer. Praying tomorrow is a better day for you. Love to you!!! 💕🙏🏻💕
Great use of gel press and agree that Gina K's master layouts dies help add to a polished look.
Oh Jennifer!! I hope you are feeling better. I hate days like that, I hope your crafting gives you the outlet or distraction you need to just "be still" ~ Thanks for being a great outlet and inspiration for me on good days and bad
That's the best demonstration I have seen. Gorgeous cards. Thank you
So sorry you are having a bad day. You have such amazing talent and I enjoy your videos very much. You have the sweetest voice and the way you explain the techniques is so enjoyable!🙏
Absolutely wonderful technique! The cards are beautiful Jennifer!💜🤗😷💞💞💞💞💞
Please don’t stop making videos with the gel press technique! You have so many wonderful ideas! And I’m a bit envious that a high school sweatshirt still fits ! I love that it’s Billy Joel! We’ve seen him 3 times in Madison Square Garden! I am going to do this technique as soon as I get my kit!
Im so sorry you were having a bad day. You bring so much joy to so many. Your videos have helped get me through the pandemic and I appreciate it so much! BIG HUGS from Canada!
Oh thank you for another great technique for using gel press. I'm currently finishing up some cards using my gel press backgrounds. Even if your mojo is hiding, having great backgrounds ready to go means that there's a card in waiting on your desk. Today's cards are all beautiful and I have stamps in my stash that will work beautifully with this technique from today! Hope your sweat shirt worked like magic!
WOW! Thanks for this wonderful video and for sharing your fabulous cards! Sorry you're having a bad day, hope it gets better! Comfy clothes are nice to have when you're having one of those days. Take care.
Time to send Jennifer some happy mail I think. Love all the gel press techniques. Keep them coming please. thanks as always for sharing.
Great video. I hope doing it picked up your spirits seeing the beauty you created knowing the joy it will bring to the card recipients and video watchers. Take care.
What an EXCELLENT presentation! Thank you so much for sharing such interesting techniques with the Gelli plate.
WOW WOW WOW!! You never stop amazing me with your techniques! I actually bought a gel press after your very first video with it, and I love it! Thank you so much for building on techniques with the gel press!
Beautiful technique. Your cards are always stunning.
Another great technique with the gel press and I'm loving them all and your cards are outstanding....thank you Jennifer for doing these videos on your bad or good days.....Hang in there.
Love your mission for this year! And honey, if there were ever a time for old t-shirts, it would be NOW. ‘Tis the season for soft clothes. 😉 Holding out hope in a risen Savior for your hard days. ❤️🙏🏾
PS I LOVE BIRDS TOO!! Both the SS and GK sets you used are new favorites for me !! Thanks
These feel elegant to me but so fun to create. Thanks for sharing.
It’s been raining here in my country town in Western Australia for the last couple of days. We have local flooding and rivers instead of streets. Good excuse to stay home and play with ink! I have two gel presses; a 4x6 and 8x 11. Looks like I need to track down a 5x 7 too! Lots of things are hard to get in Australia at the moment. Thank you for the added comment that distress oxide inks can be used too as that’s what I have most of. Keep the fun techniques coming!

So I ended up spending quite a few hours with my little gel press. I didn’t have a lot of success with the lifting technique but it was still fun anyway. As it turns out, my little gel plate is actually 3 x 5 so it isn’t a great size for standard cards. Then I had another idea; I put my big gel press on my glass mat, with a piece of card under it the same size I was printing on. I could then lay my printing card onto the press and know it would be in the right place. It worked a treat and I was able to print larger prints than the smaller plate. Now I have to make all the cards!
I absolutely love that you found “the gel press!” Now we all benefit from your experimenting! Most of us do our crafting in crazy clothes oftentimes at different segments of the day. There’s one gal who almost always does her watercoloring painting at night after her kids are tucked in, in her BATHROBE! What a gal! No apologies as it is just the way it is. Being a professional doesn’t mean we can’t be real. Also The Comforter is there all the time to help us on the rocky road of life if we want Him to.
Well crap. Now I need to buy a gel press. 😂😂❤️💋
I already love you and your videos so much - but to also know you are a Billy Joel fan, too, just makes my day!!! I mainly went to him in concert (many times) in Ohio so we may even have been at the same concert! I still have all my Billy Joel concert t-shirts, too!
Billie Joel, and The Boss... best concerts ever when I was in college! 😀 🎶 TY for sharing more fabulous gel plate ideas! Beautiful cards! 🤗
Thanks you so much for sharing with us all these techniques on gel press!! Your video as usual are clear in details and packed with so many useful suggestions. I am only starting on all these crafts projects since last year Oct... and these crafts really provided me a therapeutic feeling (same like to you) on most weekends, I love playing with stamping , die cut, cards/bookmarks making etc. Hope you feel much better after all the crafting, take care and may you have great days ahead! ♡♡♡
I hope your day got better as it went along! You are so loved, big hugs! Now to watch the rest of the video; I already love what I'm seeing!
I have a gel press, but don’t use it that often! I’ve never seen this technique and it’s pretty cool!! Thank you and now maybe I’ll use my gel press more often now. ❤️❤️❤️
Please do more gel press videos, your work is very unique.
Such beautiful cards, thank you so much for sharing with us!!!!
Thank you for EVERY SINGLE VIDEO you do! They are always my HIGHLIGHTS during the week! Seriously!
So sorry to hear you say you're not going to do more gel press videos! They are great and I love seeing your creations using them!
You are very inspirational. Sorry you were having a bad day, but it didn’t show. Hope you have more sunshiny days 😊🌸🌹🇦🇺
Loving all these gel press techniques, thank you! I also have comfort clothes for bad days 💜
I like the videos you have done on gel press. This is something new to me and it is fun. Also my tshirts are worn like yours and they are so comfortable!!!
I love a 2 for 1!!! I’m sorry for the bad day. Big hugs!
You are inspirational .... thank you for sharing your limitless creativity
Its amazing how an old shirt (or comfort food, or a bath, a hot chocolate, etc) can make you feel. I have a couple of my dad’s old shirts and wear them now and then, and make me miss him a tiny bit less. We all have something that just makes our days feel better... never need to apologize for that! As an aside, I now really want a gel press 🤣
Thanks, Jennifer for this great technique video😊. Love the cards😊😊
I love these gel press videos!
Jennifer, the cards are beautiful and the lift technique makes exquisite images. Thanks so much for sharing your talent with us even when you’re not feeling your best. My thoughts and prayers are with you.
Gosh..... BEAUTIFUL!!!! All of them. I have watched every video of you using the gel-press, and yes, I am convinced, I need to buy a gel-press and a tim holtz brayer.
Gorgeous cards! Thanks for sharing the gel press technique...
Cool cards Jennifer! I did my alcohol gel press prints, last week, then lifted them with alcohol lift ink. Yes, twofers are a card makers Nirvana! Thanks for posting, and repeat like my grandma use to say, ” This too shall pass!” Stay safe, stay strong! 🥰👍🏾🪅
I really like how you are using the gel press!
Thank you for these ideas, especially using the gel plate on your stamping platform, genius!
I just want to thank you so much for your KZread demonstrations. I love how you encourage individualism. Your are loved and appreciated. Even though I am an older gal, learning some new techniques makes my day. Thank you Jennifer 💞
Thank you so much for all that you share! I learn so many things from you. Blessings and joy to you and yours. 🤓🙏❤️🌺
I hope your days is getting better. Thank you for sharing!
I love these gel press techniques! TFS!
I love the fact that you’re doing jail press the more you do with videos with it the more I am learning. And thank you so much for naming the colors down at the bottom I have Gina’s colors so it’s really nice when you mention the color name
I sure hope your day gets better, dear lady. I Love, love love this technique. Thank you very much. gonna get out my gel press.
Love this video, great technique and beautiful cards
Great cards. I can't wait until I get my gel press. Hopefully a new month will bring you only great days and leave the bad ones in February.
Thanks for sharing this technique, your cards turned out great 👍🏻
What a wonderful video! I’d watched the other gel press videos but I don’t have the oxide inks. I was so excited to see this one! You are so appreciated! ❤️
Wonderful. Thank you for all your lovely videos and techniques.
Hope you are feeling better. Beautiful cards! The second generation prints look like embroidery depending on stamp you used. Love them!!!
I really love the way you explain and the beautiful way you show all the techniques you teach, you
Hi Jennifer, I love your videos. I love the way you present them. This is a great demonstration! I love both looks. The first pass of the second generation image can be used as a watermark where you can build up the background with script ink or light embossing. You've given me great ideas! Thank you!
Great ideas, as usual. Thanks so much for sharing. I may not try everything but you get my brain thinking!
This is wonderful! I don’t really like coloring either. I have a lot of stamp sets that I don’t always know what to do with. I have the gel press and have had it for a while, I just need to get it out and try it. I have a newborn, so it may take some time for me to get to it, but I’m excited to try it! Thank you for your wonderful videos and brining to much joy to crafting.
Lovely, gel press is on it's way already ;).Thanks for sharing your lovely ideas!
What a great technique for so many of my outline stamps that I don’t have the patience to color!! Thank you for filming even when you’re having a bad day. Great reminder we can use creativity and productivity to feel better - or at least not let them totally get in the way! Warm best wishes to you.
Hey Jennifer! Just wanted to let you know that I’m loving your gel press series! And I will be praying for you to feel better soon. Have a blessed weekend.
These are so lovely. That blue blend with daffodils is gorgeous
They are so beautiful! I hope your day got better! Love the shirt, they are the best!
I really, really love my gel press. But I love that you are showing us more ways to use it. I absolutely love this!
I like your gel press videos!
Love all the gel press videos! Thank you!
You’ve inspired me again. Can’t wait to try some of your techniques. Hope your day is getting better. I’ve had a coupe of devastating months, with Dad dying in January and Mom a week ago. Both in Oklahoma and I’m in Georgia. They were old and ready but it’s still hard. Here’s to a better month ahead.

Awesome technique Jennifer, thanks so much.
Wow, what a beautiful technique. I love how you are basically printmaking with this gel press thing! Now I want one 😄
Love what you have done with gel press. It's to great new ideas or similar ideas coming from some one else. I do have a request. Have a ton of white envelopes. From when I buy card sets. I love tu use color envelopes, but they are out my budget so i have been playing using my gel press to coordinate envelopes with my cards. I will love to see your ideas on this. 😉. Thanks for all you do.
Beautifully done.
Thank you for share! I hope that you day gets better. Take care!
What a fabulous video. So helpful.
Brilliant thanks for the amazing technique!
Love, love, love both looks from the gel press...resist and second generation!
No, I love all of these Gel Press Video’s. Please keep including them in your repertoire! You have produced some of the most beautiful backgrounds. I’m tired of always having to purchase so many pattern papers to have on hand for card making. I have purchased a couple of stamps that have individual stripes etc, to make plaid patterns. It is so difficult even with my MISTI. I don’t think I’m using the correct type of inks and maybe stencils would be easier to make some. Do you have any suggestions on how to make plaid backgrounds? I love all the content you produce. I’m so sorry to hear that you were having a bad day. I have them too! I used to have an old Elton John t shirt that I found at a thrift store that I used to love to wear. But it finally had it it’s last day not very long ago!
