Making a Mess

The Gelli plates are as fun as they look on You Tube as long as you don't mind making a mess.



I've been embossing paper and fun foam to use as imprints using my Cuttlebug-that's the little machine I use to make cards.



 After rolling paint on the plate, you put an embossed paper down to make an imprint. Then you make a print from the plate and from the embossed paper.




That way you get two images from one roll of paint.



 After all that paper was dry I cut it into 1 inch strips.



Then into 1 inch squares. I'm not sure exactly how yet but it's getting glued down in an art journal as a background of some sort. Beyond that....I don't have a clue.
