LET'S FAKE IT!

Who says you need a real gel printing plate to get beautiful layered effects? In today’s project, I’ll show you how to create a faux gelli print look in just 30 seconds — quick, easy, and perfect for junk journal pages.

 

And because we love mixing techniques, we’ll take it a step further and add a touch of faux eco dyeing to bring even more depth and texture to your papers. Fast, fun, and full of creative possibilities!

And of course, if you have a real Gelli plate, go ahead and use it — it’s a lot of fun, too! I actually used to have one myself (yes, really ;), and I’ve made several videos with it in the past. So if you’d like more ideas for real gel printing, you might want to check those out as well!
