Mixed Media Greeting Cards

I’m creating some mixed media greeting cards with some of my gelli printed papers. I shared a lot of gelli printing videos recently. Just scroll a few weeks back on my blog and you will find them. For these cards I also used my new Sketchy Flowers stamp sets. I colored the images with watercolors. For even more details on the background I embossed the flower stamps to it.

Make your own Stickers – Gelli Printed Labels

Today I am printing some round label stickers with my gelli plate. They are great for mixed media projects, your planner or bullet journal and many other papercrafts. All you need are some label sheets for the printer and your gelli plate.

Flower Greeting Cards

I just want to share some greeting cards I made recently. I used my Loose Florals stamp set for these cards. They are great for Valentine’s Day or for any other happy occasion. I kept them very neutral, so I can use them when they are needed. I made the backgrounds with watercolors and stamped the flowers onto some of my gelli prints. Check out my latest posts, there you will find some gelli printing videos.

Loose Watercolor Flower – Video Tutorial

I love to paint loose and sketchy flowers with watercolors. I believe this is something everybody can do without having much knowledge about watercolor painting. For this spread I used waterproof ink to sketch the flower first and then I went in with my watercolors. You can really easily fit this into a busy day. It’s a 5 min Sketch in the morning and 5min of coloring in the evening. Et voilá… it’s a pretty painting.

Loose Watercolor Wildflowers – Intutitive Painting Tutorial
