Garden Art Party part 2

I am always experimenting and playing with my art printables (I hope you do too!)

Recently, I came across a pile of gelli prints I had created during an art day with friends-I usually print on copy paper, (nice and thin) so I thought wonder if I can print my Flower Power art printable on a gelli print? That would be SO amazing! I called up Carmen and challenged her to doing the same! Holy Smokes the results were more magnificent than we ever imagined! I just knew we needed to share with you!!!

Here is Carmen’s version of the gelli print posey bouquet! She added some spiral bits for some added dimension and fun to the centers of her flowers.

The creative possibilities are endless!

Fingers crossed!

Hip Hip Hooray-SUCCESS!!!

Cut out those posies!

Cut two of the same flower from different gelli prints-we are about to make a reversable flower, of course!

Run a bead of glue around the circumference of the flower (leaving a little opening for stuffing)

I used a Kleenex to stuff my flower-(it’s soft and pliable (I cut them in half-you don’t need much to provide dimension

With a bamboo skewer, gently push the stuffing into the flower opening

gently push the bamboo skewer (stem) into the center of the flower, next add a bit more glue on either side of the bamboo skewer to secure-TAA DAA!!!

now repeat until you have an entire artsy bouquet!

If you have never gelli printed the quick sign up for Artsy Alchemy 2 as we will be doing just that in this Sunday’s class!
