#gelypostcardplay

Welcome to day 13 in my video series for #GelyPostcardPlay hosted by @CeriGriffiths This fun "challenge" involves posting a 4 x 6" postcard a day that includes at least one element of gel printing and also includes a number to indicate the date the card is posted. I go over the parameters in my first video of this series but you can check out more comprehensive details by watching Ceri's video introducing the challenge: • #GelyPostcardPlay Launch
For today's postcard I started using some "painty" baby wipes as a fabric base. I decided to emboss the card using an embossing folder (see link below for previous video about embossing fabric on yardstick). I made a tree using eyelash yarn on the gelli plate and added some ephemera and a quote to complete the card.

Love the addition of the house and how you colorized the Timmy guy.

@@Cheshirecat1956 Thanks so much Dar! Too bad for technical difficulties, I just about fainted when I saw that I had recorded a big portion in “slowmo”. I was able to speed it up so my voice was ok but the video flickered and I didn’t think viewers would appreciate that 😉

Great use of these wipes. I love to rip them as another way to apply them in collage. Love to watch you making decisions and auditioning ideas. Cool idea to emboss the wipes!

[@devonrex4]

Definitely great to use up those “used” wipes! I sometimes also use them as tag toppers. Thanks for watching Marsha! I am glad you enjoyed it 💙
