Hello
Today I'm sharing one of the challenges for the #marchprintingchallenge hosted by Gelli Arts on Instagram.
Day 7 is transparent and so I thought it was a good time to try out the tape transfer technique.
I started by stencilling and doodling on the gel plate.
When the paint was completely dry I lay sticky tape across the plate and smoothed it down, before slowly peeling it off, one strip at a time. The tape was still sticky enough for me to fix it to a little glass bottle. If you wanted to store them for future use you would have to dust the back with mica powder.
I coloured the top with alcohol markers and wrapped around gold thread.
The light still shines through...just...
I was pleased with how the transfer worked out. Don't know why it's taken me so long to try it!
Thank you for taking the time to stop by. Have a lovely day xx
Now this reminds me that I made some of these and not sure what I did with them but that's me all over lol! The jar looks lovely Sending hugs, Angela xXx

ReplyDeleteI have to do more trials, and using my Poscas too like you for the dots, to try to get such shiny results (mine so far were not too good :( xx
