My Holiday Gift Guide supporting Etsy artists blog post on Friday has left me feeling all Christmassy! So how do you fancy a bespoke Holiday season gift wrap set using your gelli prints to add that extra special touch to your Christmas presents this year? It’s the final episode in my Gelli Prints Project video series and a perfect way to make good use of those monoprints.
And I know that we are all time-poor, especially in the run up to the day itself, so it is a very easy set of projects that you can make in bulk too if you need to. Enjoy the video and as always the supply list is below along with the links to all the other Gelli Print videos in the series and a close up photo of one of the projects.

——— GELLI PRINTS PROJECT SERIES ———
Start here with tips on gelli printing.
Try out Project #1 with a technique for turning your drawings into mixed media collage.
Project #2 was all about using gelli prints to make botanical art, watch it here.
Project #3 use your gelli prints to make cute envelopes with colour on the inside and outside. PLUS there is a free template too!
Project #4 scan your gelli prints and use them to add printed elements in a hybrid art journal page.
Haven’t got a gelli plate? Don’t worry, make your own with this handy blog post on Gelatin plates.
Hope you have enjoyed the Gelli Prints Project series and that you are buzzing with even more ideas for using those gelli prints, because I know you aren’t hording them right? For that perfect project? Nope, you are using them all up and I am glad to hear it!
Enjoy using your monoprints!

Hi Kim
that is absolutely pretty and such a good idea to use up any sorts of scraps.
I think that the three stars are just perfect as more would have been too much.
It is always worth the time to watch your videos giving so much inspiration and ideas.

Ahh thanks Rena! Yep, I think the three stars design is definitely winning in the favourite votes! So glad you are being inspired 🙂
Have fun and I hope it doesn't stay wet in Germany all week. It's a bit wet here too!
