I invented a technique I think you're going to love! I'm actually teaching it today at my retreat and I can't wait until they find out that they all will get to keep the Gel Presses they are using in class, thanks to the generous sponsorship by Gel Press.
Would you believe me if I told you I created this beautiful, impressionistic painterly scene in two minutes? Tell the truth. I'll know if you're lying.
Well you'd better get your believe pants on, because it's true. When I came up with this, I seriously SQUEALED so loudly I scared myself. It's easy and beautiful. So here's the video - enjoy! But don't blink - it's QUICK. The sample above was created with the 3x5 press - because that's what we are using at retreat. I actually like that one better. However, if you're working on a larger card or want to cover more of it, use the 5x7 press I used in the video.
I hope you enjoyed that!
A few reminders -
- I have a new online class available - you can see it here
- This month's host code is M2U9DE6V - use that when ordering for your chance to receive free products!
- We have the most adorable exclusive, limited time stamp set in promotion right now - see the details here.
That is a "wow" technique! I love the look, and the fact that no two will be alike, not to mention how quickly you created that card. Gotta try this! Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteThat is amazing. I can't wait to try it.
ReplyDeleteAwesomeness! I totally LOVE this technique! I am most certainly going to be giving this a try as soon as I feel well enough to create again! I have tons of ideas racing through my head right now! Thank you, thank you, thank you!
ReplyDeleteHurray for you! This is amazing and fun and easy and another way to play with the gel press. WOW and you must be so proud to have discovered this - was it by mistake, grabbing the wrong spray bottle? LOL It is just wonderful!
ReplyDeleteNice way of making a unique card! Thank you for sharing!
ReplyDeleteThis is an absolutely cool technique. I don't have Oxides or the Gel Press yet but hope to at some point. I do however have the Lovely as a Tree set, which I LOVE! Pinning for reference for when I do get the supplies. TFS!
ReplyDeleteOh! That is so neat!
ReplyDeleteAwesome technique Lydia!! Excuse me while I go try this out! Thanks
ReplyDeleteThat is so cool!
ReplyDeleteLydia, you sure do think of the coolest ways to use stamping products! I'm all about creating a painterly look, as I am not a paint artist. Thanks so much for inventing and sharing!
ReplyDeleteHow cool is that????? Off to buy a gel press. I didn't think I needed one ... thank you for showing me the error of my ways and enabling me once again.
ReplyDeleteOh wow. I almost squealed out loud at work when I watched the video. That is SO cool!
ReplyDeleteGreat card made with a pretty amazing technique.
