Awe, that's so sweet of you to say Michele! I've been creating, and have a few videos ready to come out in the next few weeks. If you can believe it, I lost a hard drive then just as I'm settling in back to life...5 weeks later lost my motherboard! Well, now I have a new computer....lol. Glad you enjoyed the video! Thanks for watching. 😀😀🎨
Thanks Kathleen - I agree...lol! I did lose a hard drive then just recently my motherboard...lol. Made it a little hard...lol. I have several coming in the coming weeks, so stay tuned! Thanks for coming back to watch. Glad you enjoyed it! 😀😀🎨
Great, inspiring video chock full of so many tips and ideas. Your focus on setting yourself up for success along with your process is so helpful. Thank You!
LOL...yes, that flower stencil is a must. PERFECT for many techniques. I love it when stencils are interesting and give me lots of space to let them shine. Thank you popping by to watch, and for your support!! 😘😀😀🎨
That are indeed loads of cards very fast, amazing! Gelli printing is so much fun and you always get such a amazing result (and it's a bit addicting too😊), thanks for sharing these great techniques😘💕
Hey Ingrid! I am so sorry I missed your premiere. I had no idea you had a video coming! This is a great video m. Really makes me want to take out my gel plate and play!!! Thanks for the video!!
AWE, thanks chickie! It was good to get one done!! I have so many cards done it's crazy. I'm looking forward to actually putting some more together tonight while hanging with Michael. Thank you popping by to watch. 😀😀🎨😘
I want to be your sous-chef! I'll come over and clean up behind you and just absorb the process. Wonderful panels, Ingrid! Show us more of the finished cards, please. :)
SO glad you enjoyed it Caroline! Thanks for the feedback, I'll try to do that in the future. I show and give more insight on each one usually on the Patreon videos (much longer) - plus I can post close ups there, which I find super helpful as an artist myself. Thanks for watching. 😀😀🎨
Great ideas, Ingrid. I’ve done some like this before and was so pleased with how they came out. Always need so,e quickies, after I’ve knocked myself out making fancy ones for family and close friends. Your suggestion makes me think,I’ll do this again. You used some beautiful stencils with all your fun backgrounds and variety of pastes and paint. Thanks, Ingrid.
So glad you enjoyed them Cheryl! Ya, making cards for the bunch is an art. You need some special ones and some that you can knock out, but still fulfill you creatively, you know?! Monoprinting is a GREAT way to get lots of backgrounds done super quick. You can jazz them up as much or little as you need. Thanks for watching! 😀😀🎨
Wow !!! So much info in a little bit of time. Will need to rewatch again. You are a real talent ... so spontaneous. Would love to see your craft space during this process. Thanks so much... you make it look so easy ... fun and messy too!
I'm so glad you enjoyed it Barbara! I'm not sure you'd want to see the surrounding area during a session....lol. Looks like a bomb went off....lol. Thanks for watching. 😀😀🎨
I thought I was the only crazy person making Christmas cards in August! Today I saw your collab videos for the Christmas Bank and I felt right at home. And really inspired by your techniques to make even more! 🎄🎅😀
You are in VERY GOOD company. Have fun creating, I'm determined THIS year to succeed, and early. WAY early....lol. Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching. 😀😀🎨
Hi Ingrid! Love the Boho stencil! So fascinated watching you create! Beautiful cards! Glad to see you getting ahead of the game with Christmas Cards in August! Lol
Don't hold yourself back Rebecca. It's the single best tool I've EVER added to my studio. And the amount of backgrounds you can create in one sitting in just INSANE. Nothing rivals it, NOTHING. The real beauty for me, is how freeing and fun just the exercise of printing is. So jump into the deep end with one. Start with a 5x7 or 8x10. And if you REALLY want to have fun. Get two, you'll thank me for it. Thanks for watching. 😀😀🎨
Thanks for the hint - I've used my gel printing and then thought - now what - your video on Christmas and Birthday have really inspired for my box of printed papers!
YAY - you made my day Brenda! I wasn't kidding. Made enough colored bases for 68 cards in 10 minutes! Now I can just assemble as I have time and can. 8 cards down....check...lol! Have fun creating. Be sure to # us if you create off the card bank so we can do a shout out in stories! 😀😀🎨
This will be the FIRST time I've started my holiday cards in August. Thanks for the incentive! Were you using the Neenah 110 lb index paper or plain copy paper?
Oh that put a big smile on my face!!! Yes, Neenah 110 or 90 exact paper. Cost effective and great for printing. I use copy paper to store my plates and occasionally brayer off, but not usually. I also use deli paper a lot. Be sure to hashtag us when you share on social media!!! Have fun and enjoy the process. 😁😁🎨
Love these! I love my colorful life stencils! I was using that tree stencil last night. Making sure that you are brayering off where its adding to your backgrounds is brilliant!
@@IngridBlackburn You are DEFINITELY worth watching and supporting! You are AWESOME! You have given me some ideas to spruce up cards I am making from the remaining 32 or so sheets of a 12x12 pad.
I'm Italian and I'm sorry for my English, I love your way to create!! I bought the gelli plate few days ago, after watching your videos !!! Do some wonderful work, congratulations indeed! I can't wait to start using the gelli plate! Thanks for your tutorials ❤️
Buongiorno Floriana! You never need apologize for your English! I LOVE everything about Italy, especially the people. My married name is Pagliocca....lol. Have fun getting to know your gelli plate. It's a relationship I'm sure you'll fall in love with immediately. Can't wait to hear how it goes! Be sure to hashtag us in social media with your creations! Grazie per aver guardato il video! Thanks for watching. 😀😀🎨
@@IngridBlackburn oh thanks to you!! You're a genius!!! So your husband has Italian origin😍😍!!! Wow!!! If you'll come here tell me! I would love to meet you!! Surely! I'll hashtag you! I have to finish an explosion box and then I will try my loved gelli plate ❤️ best wishes! 🤗❤️
@@florianamarchetti7780 It's been years since I've made an explosion box, have it on my video to do list actually...lol. Where in Italy are you? We spent 2 weeks in Tuscany spring of 2019. We love it there. I've been all over, except in the north. My first trip there was 3 weeks as a 16 yr old. I felt as if I had been there in a past life. Can't explain it any other way. Michael's grandparents on both sides are from Italy. 😁 🇮🇹
@@IngridBlackburn I can't wait to see your video with your explosion box 😍😍!! I'm doing it for one of my best friend's birthday, and is my first explosion box 😂😂 I began to love scrapbooking recently (December 2019), before I had others hobbies like Fimo, sewing ecc.. I was born in Rome, lived there since I was 28 years old! Now I live near Rome, in the country, it's a lovely place even if there's no amenities compared to the the city ❤️
LOL - I hear that Nicole! If you ever want to jump into the deep end, you will be surprised how much you can do. It'll be there whenever you're ready...lol! Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching. 😀😀🎨
Glad you enjoyed it! It's totally translatable to any medium. You know, THAT would make a great video....lol. How to take something like a gel plate video and turn the inspiration to say ink blending or watercolor....lol. Thanks for watching Carolyn, hope you enjoy the card bank! 😁😁🎨
Hello Suzy! Great state. :) I have it in the description - link to the exact one. It's Neenah EXACT paper. You can use 110# or 90# for monoprinting. It's cost effective and also great for layering on cards - lightweight. Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching and commenting. 😀😀🎨
So glad you enjoyed the projects Lynne. Sorry that was too loud for you! Gel Printing is so much fun, and once I let go of being perfect with it, embracing all the beauty in the imperfections, that's when it all came together. Thank you popping by to watch. 😀😀🎨
Glad you enjoyed it Sandy! I enjoyed the Ranger much more than the NUVO, it didn't curl the paper like that. THat being said, the shimmer of the NUVO is insane! Thank you popping by to watch. 😀😀🎨
Glad your back!! I have missed your video's!!! And Happy Birthday!!! Thanks for some awesome ideas!!!
Awe, that's so sweet of you to say Michele! I've been creating, and have a few videos ready to come out in the next few weeks.
