Leaf Printing With My Gel Plate & Stampin' Up! Intricate Leaves

Nigezza Creates aka Gez, Independent Stampin' Up® Demonstrator 


Thank you for visiting my blog on Junk Journal day. Today I am playing with my gel plate and trying to get some realistic looking leaves and adding them to some tags made from the backgrounds I created on the gel plate. I love using my Stampin' Up! products in mixed media projects. I decided to make this leaf project for a challenge on a Junk Journal Facebook group I am in, Foxy Crafters. The challenge was to make something with leaves. I just love autumn leaves, the colours are amazing. Mixing the ink colours with white acrylic paint did change the colour a bit but I am so pleased with how this turned out despite there being quite al ot of pink in the finished result! 

Leaf Printing With My Gel Plate & Stampin' Up! Intricate Leaves


Measurements and Materials

  • I wanted to make some realistic looking leaves
  • I die cut some leaves and skeleton leaves using the Intricate Leaves dies 
  • I decided to do some leaf printing using my gel plate
  • I had picked some leaves from the park to give me inspiration
  • I used some white acrylic paint that I coloured with some ink refills
  • I used the leaves I had picked to make some imprints on the gel plate
  • I then placed my die cut leaves on the prints so there were veins on the leaves 
  • I redid this and took some prints on paper
  • These were later fussy cut 
  • I also used the tree mask to make some background prints
  • I am learning how to use the gel plate and having so much fun
  • You can see how I go on in the video


Now watch the video tutorial to see how this was made :-)
