- It's NOT TRASH...but rather cool texture you can use on Gel Prints and so much more. See exactly what I rescued from the dumpster to use with my Gelli Plate for amazing prints. THEN...wait till you see what I did with those prints?!!
I collaborated with two mixed media friends of mine @Tiffany Solorio and @Keren Tamir for an inspiring trio of videos on stepping outside the craft room to source FREE SUPPLIES in your very own home.
TRASH to TREASURE Collaboration:
Tiffany's Video: • DITCH The CRAFT SUPPLIES!
Ingrid's Video: You're HERE
Keren's Video: • DON'T USE your art sup...
Leave me a comment on supplies you love to use from around the house!
Ask any questions and tell me in the comments how YOU did!!

Do YOU ever use things found around the house for texture or tools in YOUR work? I'd love to know. Share in the comments!! Thanks for popping by to watch today! We worked so hard to bring you this fun collaboration. Hope you enjoyed it! Be sure to check out Keren's and Tiffany's video. They are cool! 😃😀🎨
Oh my gosh I love this video! Thank you for posting. I have a pile of these exact items. I just used the onion bag a few days ago and loved how it turned out. I have at least 4 different bubble wrap textures. One has large square bubbles, another are tiny little bubbles. I have separated corrugated cardboard to get the ridges and bits of paper exposed. I am so looking forward to your video on creating coasters. Thanks again.
Yes I do. Its enjoyable and very creative . It's amazing the beauty that comes out of the things that so many people look at it as garbage . Be happy and creative .
Those turned out so pretty. Thanks you for playing and letting us watch. That was fun. It makes me want to play with my geliplate again.
OMG, I had to stop this after the pulls - THESE ARE GORGEOUS!!!!!!!!!!! Ingrid, you may have your mojo back, thank you for your inspiration, creativity, and generousity of spirit. Now back to the video...
LOL, you are too funny Deborah! Thank you for that. I filmed this back in November. There is SUCH a back story to this video, I'll have to share it some day. And a project that got left on the cutting room floor, but is going to be a video on its own. Something to definitely look forward to. Hope you enjoyed the other two videos as well - they really did some fun stuff... Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment. Means a lot. 😘😃🎨
You know how some people watch Bob Ross to relax? Wait til they find Ingrid and her gel presses. ❤
Gorgeous! Amazing gel prints and great tips! TFS the inspiration and off to the other artist you mentioned!
Those leaves are heaven. I bring them back from my childhood home. From a big old tree that’s older than me , and I’m 66 . 😂 I still have memories of meeting this tree when I moved to the property at the age of around 5.its a camphor laurel and the leaves smell divine even when they turn brown. TFS , this video is amazing .
Oh thank you for sharing that with me. That memory made me smile Sandra-Louise. So glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching. 😀😀🎨
Hey Ingrid, great to see you getting your hands dirty. You make the best gel prints. So cool!
😘😘🎨 miss ya chickie!!! Thanks for popping by to watch and comment. 😍😘🎨
very beautiful. very creative. I work a lot with fabric. I am going to try and use prints like yours on the fabric instead of paper. thank you for sharing your amazing ideas.
Waouh j'adore vos créations est votre univers. J'adore ma gel press et vous regardez un un immense plaisir. Merci de vos partages et bravo 👏❤️
Wonder results! Love using natural elements!
I’m new to gelli prints, so I am incredibly grateful for your videos :) You have a soothing voice too
Wow! I so appreciate watching you create. Absolutely love these with the leaves and acorns!!!!!! Thanks so much for sharing.
The thing I love about you three collaborators is that it's ALL about the ART; not about glossy fingernails, or about what supplies you have, or how vast your studio is, that stuff bores me. When I go to an art channel I want to see and hear about the art. I want to see the creations from beginning to end; some art channels spend the whole video on talking about what they've got in the way of accessories, whilst making sure their fingernails get constant exposure throughout the video, ad infinitum. It's a breath of fresh air to have found your channels (I stumbled upon the incredibly easy to learn from, Keren first, which led me to Tiffany, and then to you), and to actually learn from you three. Thank you for sharing this lovely video. :)
SO glad you enjoyed it Lauren. Thank you for that. Ya, no manicure here, my manicure is usually paint...LOL. Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment! 😀😍🎨
I don't own a gelli plate but these gorgeous prints are amazing. One day...
Beautiful Gelli printing!
I’ve used leaves in my artwork before but not on gel press. I’ve even dipped fresh leaves in ultra thick embossing powder to make beautiful jewelry. I collect all sorts of lids, boxes of bubble wrap (because who knows when they’ll quit making/using it!), cardboard textures, all sizes of bottle caps - basically anything that will create texture or make a mark!
I bet those look AHMAZING!!! Bite your tongue on them stopping making bubble wrap....now I need to hoard more...OH BOY...lol. Michael is going to just bust...lol. I agree - anything and everything that makes a mark. Get creative with it. Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment!! 😃😃🎨
Using found items instead of going out and buying something, ignites your creativity in a way that store bought supplies can never do. Thanks for this!
I SO agree! I love my store bought stuff, but this was on a whole different level in the loving my art! So glad you enjoyed it. What kinds of things have you used? Thanks for watching and taking the time to leaving a comment! 😃😃🎨
@@IngridBlackburn Like you, I've also used leaves, but some other things I've used are the end of a toilet paper roll, some jewelry chain, the plastic liner from a box of chocolates, the bristles of a well-used, worn out stencil brush, some scrunched up tin foil...anything with an interesting texture, or capable of impressing an interesting design, like some kitchen tools. I'm really trying to make an effort to loosen up with my work, and stop trying to be so perfect and precise. I think true art happens when you get out of the way, instead of trying to force it. The artists I admire are very intuitive, and show an amazing ability to go with the flow. I want to move in that direction. One artist who blows me away, I found here on UA-cam, Millie Gift Smith. You couldn't get much looser than Millie, she turns her canvas sideways, upside down and her results always amaze me. Some of us get more careful as we get older...not Millie! Her art is fearless. If you'd like to check her out. ua-cam.com/video/0RGYI2_13sw/v-deo.html
@@jas8815 Thanks for that, I had never seen that channel before. I'm with you - anything that can help me to create depth and texture, I'm in. Liner from Chocolates...interesting. I wholeheartedly agree on staying loose, and getting out of your own way. Mixed media has helped me to let go of the control, accept that it's a journey and sometimes bumps and unexpected things are magical and take you into a fun, exciting direction. At its core, it's a lesson - an opportunity to learn more. Thanks for sharing all that! 😘😃🎨
Stunning prints.....the colors...the textures....swoon! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
beautifulll,beautifulll.. muy bonitoooooo!!!!!!!!!
Awesome.....thanks for sharing...
Cling film (food wrap in the USA), foil, scourers, sand paper, cotton buds, sponges, old toothbrush or hairbrushes or a comb. The back of an old loyalty or credit card, tissues/kitchen roll. Sprigs from outdoors, pine cones, feathersAnd so much more.
Hi Ingrid, WOW! Beautiful work and very inspiring.😄💕
😘😘😘 Happy New Year chickie!!! I hope you've been well. Thanks for popping by to always watch Michelle. I appreciste you taking time to comment. It means a lot to me. 😘🎨
Oh, I love how the print came out Ingrid. The acorn - who would have thought? Thanks for share.
Thrilled you enjoyed that Christina! I was so surprised it looked like a coffee bean. TOTALLY amazing surprise! Have fun playing yourself. Thanks for stopping by to watch and taking the time to comment! Enjoy the other two videos... 😍😘🎨
I haven't played with my Gelli plate in some time but HOLY COW!! This video makes me want to pull it out and get busy! These particular prints are just fabulous! I LOVE the blue/orange one but the softer green one is stunning as well! I have a bin filled with random "junk" for my prints and can't wait to play with it all soon, thanks to you! :D
SO excited you love this. Can't wait to hear about you playing with these. You'll have to pop back by this weekend, I'm turning so many of these into a cool giftable! 😍
@@IngridBlackburn I'll be back!! :)
Wow. This is my first visit to your channel. I wish I could visit with you in your studio and learn all you have to teach me! Which of your videos do you recommend to a beginner? This looks like something I could immerse myself in!
Thank you for sharing your art with the world!
Michelle
Kerry/Inkhill Revival linked you. Printmaking was my major in art at college (many moons ago). You would love collagraphy. You build a collage with texture, image, and composition in mind, ink it up and run through the press. You get serendipitous marks as well as planned and the textures and objects are impressed into the paper leaving the print embossed.
Gelli printing is one of my favourite things to do. I’ve made prints using leaves and organic material in the past and love the effect. I’ve also raided my hubby’s tool box and used some interesting tools, including a golf spike repairer and golf ball once lol. Love your prints and coasters. TFS. Happy day
I love it Ingrid, it is so organic. I guess I will start my mini scavenger hunt outside for nature's beauty. Thank you for sharing your talent with us. I appreciate you and your love of art.
Happy Collecting. Pick it all up, you never know what will create that magic in your art. Just have fun - but leave the bugs outside...lol. Thanks for watching Stella! 😘😃🎨
Love your prints. It would make great cushion covers.
They sure would!!! Thanks for watching chickie. 😘😃🎨
So awesome! I watched it earlier today and had to come back and comment. Creative!
I'm so glad you enjoyed it Lindsay!! They aren't quite that gorgeous foliage you get, I miss that from the northeast, but love any leaves just the same. 😁 Thanks so much for talking the time to pop by a second time to watch and comment!! 😍😁🎨
Wow! I love the part when you pull the paper off and all the paint came off onto the paper!! That's so cool! Thanks for the amazing video!
I just found you and love your soft, calming voice (I need some calming in these dark times), your gorgeous nature-inspired art and your beautiful color combinations. I also love gelli-printing and you inspired me to get back into it. Thank you ❤️
Welcome Edith! Nice to meet you. I'm glad you enjoyed this. Gel printing is the best. Most versatile tool in my studio. Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment!! 😃😃🎨
These are so pretty! I really like the blues and orange.
Oh me TOO Shirley! Blue and Orange are such great compliments together. I'm thrilled you enjoyed this. Thanks for stopping by to watch and taking the time to comment! Enjoy the other two videos... 😍😘🎨
I absolutely loved this video!!! Thank you so much!!! You are so inspiring!!! Please, keep the gel print videos coming!!!
Oh wow... love both of these!! So fun watching you create.
Beautiful!
I added a gel press to my craft room but have yet to touch it. Now I am inspired. This video is amazing. And I didn't quite get what paints you are using if you could share that please. Thank you for taking the time to share this technique.
I absolutely love this. These projects and collaborations are a great way to start 2021. I think we all get caught up sometimes in the new thing and are blindly buying. I really appreciate the step back. And as someone who loves cardmaking as well as mixed media projects, this is amazingly refreshing. Good on 'ya!
I'm so glad Susie!! We have been so ready to put this up, I'm so happy it's my first video of 2021. I'm looking forward to another year of focusing on what we have. I don't mind getting new, but need to use what I have. I have WAY too much....lol. I'm so glad you are a mixed media and cardmaker. Do you mix the two a lot? Thanks so much for popping by to watch and comment! 😃😀🎨
@@IngridBlackburn Yes, I do mix them quite a bit. I used to keep the card making and mixed media firmly in their own lanes, saving my mixed media for ATCs (which I still love) and the occasional journal page. Now they cross the boundaries both ways - I always try to include a little stamping on my ATCs and in many of my journal pages. I started out as a stamper, and still love it. I too have so many things, and too many that I don't use at all. Other than replenishing basic supplies that I use, I am dedicated to using what I already have this year. I am so happy that some of my favorite youtubers are doing the same, it's inspiring. I am so excieted to be journeying along with you all.
Very nice! Love it!!
Must get out my gel plate, NOW! Thank you Ingrid. Super inspiring tutorial. Tfs
Both of those prints are so pretty, but I especially love the blue one! Really love all the coasters and things that you did with them. I I have always loved finding things around the house or things in nature to incorporate in my crafts. And tell your hubby to keep his paws off your bubble wrap! LOL
I loved the progression of these projects, they turned out beautifully...
Take care & stay safe my lovely...
💫😷🍂👩🏼🎨🍃😷💫
I love the way your prints turned out. I need to try some of your ideas. Thank you.
Beautiful!! Thanks for sharing!!
Ingrid, beautiful prints and I love how you used the leaves etc. to make them! Can you direct me to the coasters and cards video that you made after this? I'm having trouble finding it and would enjoy watching the process. Thank you so much and thank you for sharing your artistic talent with us!
Hey Ingrid, I'm a fan of Keren's and I LOVE art, nature, recycling and your three-way collab!!! Your voice, and technique are so relaxing and elegant. Is it possible to do this gel plate technique on fabrics and wax? Because my crafting superpowers are pillows, quilts and candles. It would be awesome if I could press the fabric squares and roll the candle sides on the gel plate. Your color choices were exquisite and I fell head over heels for the botanical supplies and results. I have similar botanicals available. Subscribed, liked and clicked notifications. I look forward to binge watching your archives and waiting for the next posts. Happy holidays and lotsa love from Louisiana!
WOW!! This is my favorite kind of art! Using natural objects like leaves (and I love using dried flowers from my garden). I have not had much luck using my gel plate and would die to get backgrounds like the ones you showed here!! Guess I will keep trying because it’s worth it! TYFS! ❤️🦋💜
Definitely keep at it Cindy. If you're having any issues, just pop a question in here. I'm sure we can work the problem together. It's totally worth it. Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment. Means a lot. 😘😃🎨
These are gorgeous
love this! Thanks so much for taking the time to make this video. I've really been loving playing with a gelli plate and like learning more ways to use it.
Beautiful end results!! Wow!!!!
Wonderful, and so refreshing ❤️
Ingrid, Those prints were amazing. I love how specific you were with what you used especially the acorn. Such beautiful prints!
Thank you so much Teri! I'm so glad you enjoyed that. I used the tops of the acorns on another print too. Loved playing with Nature's supplies, you know?!! It was a great exercise in sourcing your own stuff. Do you print much? Thanks for taking the time to watch and leave a comment! 😘😀🎨
love this...absolutely beautiful...thanks so much!
Made very nice images..good job
Wow! Very cool!
WOW Ingrid! 😳 this is amazing! Love your prints, very inspirational. Crafty hugs. Xx
I love the Gelli plate!
ME TOO! Truly the best tool in my studio. Thanks for popping by Michelle! Means a lot that you left a comment. Go have fun with yours!! 😀😘🎨
Thank you for this, Ingrid! Been hesitating about buying a gelplate over the homemade gelatin one...I'm sold!!! Yes, I always look for ways to recycle stuff..... have even run leaves through my spell binder with leaf dies....😂amazing and the smell of those eucalyptus leaves......mmmmmm
I seriously love your gelli printing so so much!! these are just so gorgeous and everyone should learn from your technique!! you're so talented.
Awe, thank you chickie! THIS was SO MUCH FUN! I loved collaborating with you both so much. Your video is just incredible Keren, and that project at the end - WOW. Thanks for always supporting me so much. Your friendship means a lot to me! 😍😘🎨
Amazing! Love it, love it, love it.
Coasters? These are fabulous Ingrid!
Just wait LeAnn, it's coming soon - you will LOVE it. Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching - always! 😘😘🎨
Love, love, love!!!

Awesome!!! Simply Amazing!!!! I'm absolutely totally inspired!!!!! Thanks for sharing......
You made my day!! So excited that it sparked something for you. Thanks for stopping by to watch and taking the time to comment! Enjoy the other two videos... 😍😘🎨
The gel plate reveal blew my mind! Beautiful and love the organic flow of your video ❤️
Thank you Shera! SO thrilled you enjoyed that. These prints are fun... Thank you so much for taking the time to watch and comment. 😃😘🎨
Whaaaat? Awesome!
Love, love that 1st print. Gel plates are the best.
I agree - the ARE the best. My MOST used tool in my studio. Thanks so much for popping by to watch and comment! 😃😀🎨
These are beautiful!!! So glad you are back in your crafty groove❤️
Happy New Year chickie!!! 😘
Ingrid. Your voice is so calming! I LOVE all of your techniques! Next fall can I get a box of fall? LOL! The leaves are so inspiring! Great video!
I wonder if Michael would say that 😂😆 You most definitely can get a box of fall from me - I PROMISE...I'll go collect NOW if you want?!! I still have LOADS out there.... LOVED LOVED LOVED your video Tiffany. I would NEVER have added that from the kitchen chickie - you're brilliant! Can't wait for the next one. This was so much fun. 😘😘🎨
That turned out so awesome and was so mesmerizing to watch!
Wow! Love ❤️
Thank you, I've just found your videos and an really enjoying these
I love your work!! 💗
Love love 💕
Grazie per le belle idee
WOW Ingrid, that was amazing, I had a gelplate since 2 month and I enjoyed your Video soooo much, thank you. Many greetings from Germany
So cool
These are just gorgeous! I wasn't sure when you put that orange in. It looked so bright. But when you pulled it, it looked amazing!
I totally get that Jill! Always feels weird to me to add it. But those two together just POP. I love that combo. GREAT for masculine cards too. Thanks for always stopping by to watch and taking the time to comment! Enjoy the other two videos... 😍😘🎨
Really great work can’t wait to recover to get back to work
I just came across your channel. Can I just say Wow! Love your work and how you do your videos.
Welcome Gail! Thrilled to have you here. Anytime you have a question, don't hesitate to ask! 😘
Love the prints. Very creative.
Your projects are just stunning! I love the colours and how they work with the natural elements you chose! Can't wait to see the next one!
Thanks chickie!!! I'm so glad you enjoyed it. Now if you did this with inkpads?...hmmmm.....GO try it! You've got a plate...😉😆 THanks for popping by Ardyth! 😍😘🎨
Love this 🥰
I was afraid of using plant matter on my plate because I feared it cutting into it.
Your work is GORGEOUS!
As long as it isn't sharp, you should be good Jesse. When I used the acorn, I just didn't use the point. Hope that helps. Play with it! Thanks for watching chickie. 😘😃🎨
@@IngridBlackburn thank you!
The green one is my favourite.
Ya, I'm thinking of making a bunch of those for next years Christmas cards. With some red instead of orange. Keren pointed out to me that they would be lovely Christmas cards - my mind didn't even go there...lol. OR, just great any day projects... Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment. Means a lot. 😘😃🎨
Ingrid,you sound as though you found your happy place again. Some of the most beautiful gel prints l have ever seen x
I'm so glad you enjoyed this! Thank you Tania - that's a BIG compliment! Do you ever use things that are throw aways? Just curious... Thanks so much for watching and taking the time to comment. 😀😃🎨
@@IngridBlackburn yes l certainly do. I have 3 kids and now they are grown “the doing box” which lived under the kitchen table has just moved to my craft room. Having a daughter with sensory issues, cutting and sticking has always just been something we’ve done. My daughter still loves to craft and now we spend many home visits,she lives in supported living now, crafting and creating things that spark the senses x
I learned so much here. Thank you great video!💐
Great editing job too!
YOU made my day! I don't think anyone understands HOW HARD it is to do that....lol. I've spent countless hours honing that skill. And still have SO MUCH to learn. It's become an art project in itself. Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment! 😘😃🎨
Amaizing
Ingrid this is amazing! I really do need to get out my gel press and play! I about freaked out when you covered everything with white at the end and then WHOA!!! that reveal was totally awesome! Thank you for sharing all these gems!!! I thought I was the only one who saved things because of their texture and my hubby was the only one trying to get rid of it....LOLOLOL Thanks again :)
😂 nope, you're not alone....lol. Thanks for watching chickie!!! 😘😁🎨
Oh my! Thosefirst 2 prints are amazing!
I love how this turned out. I've not seen a gel plate this big where can I get these? Thanks for sharing.
Hi Bridget! I have links under Supplies for everything used in this video. Hope that helps! Thanks so much for watching and leaving a comment! 😀
Did you post the video about how you made your coasters? I love this idea so I can share my art as gifts.
WOW awesome papers you made 🥰 I love the colors and your design ❤ thanks for sharing your creativity Hugs xx
Thanks for popping by Joan! SO thrilled you enjoyed it. 😘😃🎨
Beautiful, my friend! I could watch you do gel prints all day!
Happy New Year chickie! Here's to a creative one filled with joy of crafting for us both, right?!! 😘😘😘
❤
great video Ingrid, those textures are amazing and the end result, LOVE💖😍
SO GLAD you loved it Gerry! Thanks for watching chickie. 😘😃🎨
Just love watching and listening to you, so relaxing. Can I ask you what papers you use for final prints? Thankyou
Those gel prints are SO beautiful.
I'm SO thrilled you loved it Cordelia!!! Thank you for always supporting my work and channel. It means the world to me that you always pop by, watch and leave me a comment. I hope you had a great New Year! 😃😘🎨
I would frame these, they are beautiful
