A quick and easy technique with Gelatos.....

Good moring all? How is your week so far?

I havent had a whole lot of craft time recently but I did manage to make this quick tag the other night using gelatos. there's a big trend for these little sticks of creamy water colourness at the moment. Easy to blend with/without water and very versatile.

For this tag I used the 50's Diner Glato set and the technique for this tag blends them directly onto cardstock and then you simply place a mask over and then wipe across with a babywipe to remove colour :-) 

Easy peasy and it also works with distress inks too! On this cardstock I didnt use a layer of gesso beneath the gelatos but certain stock will achieve better results if gessoed 1st. 

I layered a second stencil over the top using Distress inks and then stamped in archival using Lost Coast Design and StampersAnon.

The masks I used came from Green Pepper Press.

I hope this technique is useful - I look fwd to seeing your makes with this!

Crafty cheers for now - going to see if I can catch an hours sleep!

Thanks for stopping by.....

Love

Rae
