 Oh boy oh boy was I a "kiddy kipper" - to borrow the phrase from Emma Blake - when I received my Gelli Arts Perfect Placement Tool. For me, the wonders of layering with paints, stencils & stamps never ceases but I'm also not worried if I don't pull the perfect print. However I do know that for others, this can be the bit that turns them running to the hills from their gelli plate. Hopefully in this post I will share some of my prints that I have created & also a YouTube video showing the printing process.

Ciao Bella have a beautiful range called "Modern Times" which has a theatre, film, cinema vibe to it. When I received mine and flicked through all the designs, it was one of those "light bulb" moments as to what I wanted to create first. I've grabbed some photos of my youngest lad from way back when, and created an art journal come scrapbook page in my huge Dina Wakley journal. I suppose it's a hybrid of two different crafts ...

  I'm slowly going through all my memory sticks & folders on hard drives called either "photos to edit" or "phone dump" and have been sorting them. I didn't realise how many I had & also how many projects I hadn't shared! Today I'm sharing four projects made with the Tonic Studios Centre Piece Sentiments die sets. These are large sentiments that create a commanding statement on your cards.
