How to: collage ON a gel plate!
Did you know you can use a gel plate WHILE you are creating the collage? A few tips… 1) Gather your collage paper. 2) Trim your collage paper to smaller sizes and glue on to your paper. Use heavier paper, like card or watercolor paper. 3) Use your favorite gel printing techniques to print over top. 4) Once you are finished, trim the papers down to quarters by cutting down the middle of the paper, then cutting each piece in half. Have fun!💥🎉🎨
