I recently received some gelsticks (very similar to gelatos) and have enjoyed seeing what they can do. They are creamy and come in a plastic container similar to lip balm and they are water soluble. There is a range of colors and even some in metallic form. The orange background for this card was three colors of gelsticks scribbled on cardstock and then mixed with a water brush. I added a die cut chevron. The flower was cut on my electronic cutter and I found it in a stash of stuff I had saved. I inked the ends of each petal with orange and then yellow. The final touch was dimensional paint dots.
Sharing some of my exploration into the world of art. I'll include some stamped work, digital work, photography and maybe even some journaling.
