I signed up for an on-line class for the Gel Press and am learning so much. Plus having lots of fun in the process too. The class is independent/not sponsored by Fun Stampers Journey. It is allowing me to learn more and more about the Gel Press and just how fun and easy it is to use.
We have a select number of items on sale this month (September 2017) and that includes the Gel Press, acrylic paints, and our brayer to name just a few. Check out all the details at the bottom of my post here. 20% off is a great deal.
Here are some of my samples from the classes this last week.
This was done all with our Liquid Colors (pg 304 of the main catalog). We were asked to color it in anyway that we wanted, and to give ourselves permission to have fun!!! I am very pleased with the outcome, and actually may end up framing it.
These were all done with acrylic paint and the Gel Press. Fun Stampers Journey sells acrylic paint in 16 different colors and also the Gel Press in an exclusive size (8 1/2 x 11). These are on Pages 254 through 255 of the main catalog. This lesson was called "Let it Ride". It showed us how we could create new designs by leaving the previous colors/paints (works with inks and liquid color too) on the gel press and then covering them with new color(s) and pulling off the design.
This class was all centered around textures. I took wood embellishments, die cuts, thread etc to create new images and designs in my gel press print. See the flower type image in the green and purple pulls? Further down in my post, I will show you the card I created AFTERWARDS with the wood embellishment.
If you click on the photos, it will enlarge the details for you. The fine lines in these designs were created by wrapping Fun Stampers Journey Thread (page 327 of the main catalog) around my brayer and then rolling the brayer over the inks Gel Press.
The things I created sparked imagination and inspiration for me. I could see them as backgrounds to cards, die cut into images for cards etc. So many creative ideas from a few hours of fun.
This is the floral wooden piece (now retired) that I used to put texture and design on my gel press. I let it dry completely and then used it on a thank you card.
The background to this card was created on the Gel Press with our True Color Fusion Inks (page 302 and 303) and the Polka Dot Wall Stencil JM-0085 on Pg 260. There are so many stencils to choose from on Pages 260 - 261. They are perfect with the Gel Press. AND best of all, many of the stencils are on sale right now for 20% off including the Polka Dot Wall one I used for this card.
Thank you for letting me share my class projects with you. I hope that they have helped inspire your creative spirit too.
