Round Gel Plate Magic ! Creative Ways to Display Your Prints.


 Too many gel prints ? Here are some creative ways to display your prints. I’m using 2 different art journals, one for the tissue paper release prints, and another for fine prints printed on printmaking paper. 

Do you enjoy gel printing? It’s a great way to use up recycled tissue paper. Even wrinkled paper that’s been folded up is fine to use as a release print, as the gel plate smooths the paper out. Have a marvellously creative day! Vicki 😘
