Description
I love making little books! This 6×4 inch book is one of my favourites.
It is created using gel prints which makes each book unique because no two gel prints are ever the same – there are so many possibilities.
On the first day of this two day workshop we will print patterned pages using the gel plate, stencils, paint colours of your choice, and a variety of items.
We will spend the second day cutting, embellishing/decorating the pages using die cuts, stamped images, sewing and doodling. These pages, a dimensional centre page and cardboard cover will be bound into a gorgeous layered book. This Gelli Plate workshop is suitable for all.
