I have been threatening myself with buying gelli plates for many years. My studio if full of all the things already and I've been avoiding adding yet another thing. Well, I did it. It's here and I am ready to play. If it's not too late, please sign me up! I promise to send quality work. If I don't take to it like I think I will, I will contact you and drop out. But, I have faith. I love the gelli plate already (I'll take it out of the box tonight!) lol
Ha! I know this feeling well. I am not a "collector" so every time I add to my art supplies I have a bit of anxiety and there is never any way to know if it will become a supply that I frequently use or end up rarely using. I also resisted buying a gelli plate and finally gave in by buying a "used" one off of Amazon. It wasn't actually "used" per se, but rather "imperfect" as it doesn't make a perfect rectangle--like the gel fell out of the mold during production. :ROFLMAO:

Anyhow, it's definitely not too late to join! Welcome to the swap, mybrokenart!

With a LOT of trial, error, and practice, and just a touch of frustration and angst, I have completed your challenge. This was soooo much fun! I hope you like them ok!

They look wonderful! Kudos to you for jumping in! My gel plate skills are pretty remedial but it looks like you are learning fast!
